NZ Health Department fails to warn women about deaths caused by new HPV vaccine

Family Life International is asking why the New Zealand Ministry of Health is not doing more to inform New Zealand women that the new Human Papillomavirus vaccine (HPV) Gardasil poses serious risks to the health of women and their unborn babies.

US based group Judicial Watch, using officially obtained Food and Drug Administration (FDA) documents, have shown that so far three US women have died after being administered the Gardasil vaccine.

The official documents show that one female patient “died of a blood clot three hours after receiving the Gardasil vaccine” and that two other girls aged 12 and 19 died from heart problems and/or blood clotting.

The documents also show that of the 42 women who received the vaccine while pregnant, 18 experienced side effects ranging from spontaneous abortion to foetal abnormities.

On top of this the documents also show other serious side effects like paralysis, Bells Palsy, Guillain-Barre Syndrome, and seizures were reported in women who have received the Gardasil vaccine.

“It is completely egregious that New Zealand women are not being warned about these serious side-effects, especially when one considers the very public way this drug was first promoted in New Zealand” says Family Life International media spokesperson Brendan Malone.

“Women were told that Gardasil was the answer to Cervical Cancer, and parents were encouraged to have their teenage daughters vaccinated with this drug. Yet not only is Gardasil a completely unproven drug whose long-term effects are not actually known, but these new FDA records clearly show that it poses serious risks to the health of women.”

“The fact that the New Zealand Ministry of Health is not doing more too urgently alert NZ women to the serious risks of Gardasil is a serious failure” says Brendan Malone.
