The Human Papiloma Virus (HPV) is at epidemic levels because of high levels of promiscuous sex. In about 70% of those affected, their bodies effectively eradicate the virus within about 18 months. In 90% of those infected, their bodies fight off the virus within about 2 years. For those where HPV is not resisted, it can turn into cervical cancer.
The aggressive lobbying and ad campaign makes the vaccine appear to be safe, with no complications, along with being 100% effective. Wendy says that none of these points are true.
HPV can't be caught any other way except through intimate, sexual contact. So the push to mandate this vaccine for young girls has made this vaccine a hot-button issue.
According to Wendy, legislators have been heavily lobbied by Merck, the company that owns the vaccine. What this means is that if the HPV vaccine were to be mandatory for school age girls, taxpayers would be funding the effort, guaranteeing that Merck would take in about 4 billion dollars a year.
