New Study Explains How The HPV Vaccine Can Trigger “An Extremely Wide Spectrum of Autoimmune Diseases”
In Brief
- The Facts:Along with
the science showing how the HPV vaccine can be dangerous, there are
numerous examples of adverse reactions, hospitalizations and deaths that
have resulted from the HPV vaccine.
- Reflect On:Why are the points made by vaccine safety advocates never addressed and countered by the mainstream? Why does the mainstream always respond with ridicule and name calling instead?
The
powerful government-pharmaceutical industry partnership that has been
foisting human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination on girls and boys around
the world since 2006 now has working-age adults within its sights.
Merck’s Gardasil 9 received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
approval for expanded use in the 27-45 age group in late 2018, and there are signs that a campaign is afoot to achieve the same end result in other countries.

HPV vaccines have been linked to over 100,000 reported adverse events globally, including disabling autoimmune conditions and deaths, but officials seem unconcerned. Merck set the tone for the truth-stretching claim that HPV vaccine risks are “negligible”
when it conducted its initial clinical trials for Gardasil and
dismissed as irrelevant the serious medical conditions that arose—within
seven months—in half of all participants who received the vaccine.
With the accumulation of studies since those early trials, it is getting harder to deny the existence of a disabling post-HPV vaccination syndrome.
Although researchers admit that they do not yet fully understand the
mechanisms whereby HPV vaccines wreak their autoimmune havoc, the
phenomenon of immune cross-reactivity offers one highly plausible explanation. In a new study in Pathobiology,
two of the most-published researchers on this topic report on the
overlap between human proteins and HPV antigens. The authors consider
their results indicative of “a cross-reactivity potential capable of
triggering an extremely wide and complex spectrum of autoimmune
diseases.”
Molecular mimicry
Scientists view autoimmunity as the prolonged and pathological response that
arises when the immune system gets confused between “self” and
“non-self” due to molecular similarities between an environmental agent
and the host. The specific hypothesis—called molecular mimicry—is
that “either a virus or bacteria…initiate and exacerbate an autoimmune
response through sequence or structural similarities with
self-antigens.”
Although the molecular mimicry concept
has been floating around for at least three decades, relatively few
researchers have been willing to make the conceptual leap to inquire
whether the viral or bacterial antigens in vaccines provoke the same pathological response. In their Pathobiology study,
however, the two authors—Drs. Darja Kanduc (Italy) and Yehuda Shoenfeld
(Israel)—do just that, looking at HPV through the lens of both HPV
infection and “active immunization.” Using cutting-edge molecular
biology techniques to look at matching peptide sequences in HPV
“epitopes” and human proteins, Kanduc and Shoenfeld examine epitopes
from 15 different HPV types, including eight of the nine types included
in Gardasil 9. (An epitope is the portion of an antigen capable of stimulating an immune response.)
Confirming that there is an
“impressively high extent” of peptide sharing between HPV epitopes and
human proteins, the two authors then outline numerous pathological
implications of their results, giving examples of “human proteins
that—when hit by cross-reactions generated by HPV infection/active
immunization—may associate with diseases and autoimmune manifestations.”
The latter include:

- Reproductive abnormalities, including “ovarian dysgenesis, anovulation and male infertility, altered gene expression during oogenesis, premature ovarian failure, diminished ovarian reserve, accelerated primordial follicle loss, oocyte DNA damage, as well as susceptibility to breast/ovarian cancer” and “disorders in spermatogenesis, sperm-egg fusion, or spermatid maturation and male infertility”
- Neuropsychiatric diseases, including “epilepsy, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, and brain cancer”
- Lupus manifestations
- Circulatory effects, including “altered control of the vascular dynamics, pain, fevers associated with the menstrual cycle, depression, hypotension, and dysregulation of blood pressure”
- Cardiac effects, including “cardiac autoimmunity and sudden unexplained death”
The role of adjuvants
As Kanduc and Schoenfeld state, the
HPV-human protein overlap documented in their study is not unique to
HPV; many other microbial sequences share significant commonalities with
human proteins as well. Because the overlap is so widespread, some
researchers are skeptical of cross-reactivity and dismiss it as more
“fantasy” than “fact.” To explain why cross-reactivity is plausible in
the context of vaccination, the two authors describe, in other
publications, another important piece of the puzzle: vaccine adjuvants
and comparable environmental “stimuli.” In fact, they argue, the “sole
purpose” of a vaccine adjuvant is to gin up an immune response that
otherwise would be unlikely to occur—and when the adjuvant is paired
with foreign peptides that are similar to human peptides, a “reasonable
outcome may be the development of crossreactivity and autoimmunity.”
Schoenfeld is coauthor on another recent study published in the Annals of Arthritis and Clinical Rheumatology. The study describes post-HPV-vaccination autoimmunity in Japanese girls,
and it reiterates that vaccine adjuvants are an essential consideration
for understanding the girls’ “unexpected” and “abnormal” immune
responses. The authors write:
Vaccination results in the iatrogenic production of useful antibodies in the human body, but it cannot be ruled out that the exposure to an external stimulus including adjuvants induces unexpected abnormal immune responses, such as a newly evoked situation with an autoimmune abnormality [emphasis added].
With 500 micrograms of aluminum adjuvant, Gardasil 9 has more than double the
amount of aluminum contained in the original Gardasil vaccine. How this
double-whammy “external stimulus” will play out in terms of
autoimmunity requires assessment.
Distraction and deception
From the beginning, manufacturers and officials have relied on gimmicks to
promote HPV vaccination while distracting the public from the tsunami
of adverse events that has followed in the vaccines’ wake. It is
unlikely that we will hear anything about a just-published South Korean
study describing almost 100 safety signals among
the nearly 4800 HPV-vaccine-related adverse events reported to the
Korea Adverse Event Reporting System database between 2005 and 2016; 19 types of serious adverse events were
not even listed on the country’s HPV vaccine inserts. The 19 are:
neuralgia, tremor, neuritis, depersonalization, axillary pain,
personality disorder, increased salivation, peptic ulcer, circulatory
failure, hypotension, peripheral ischemia, cerebral hemorrhage,
micturition disorder, facial edema, ovarian cyst, weight increase, pain
anxiety, oral edema, and back pain.
Instead, it appears that we should
prepare to see more smoke and mirrors as HPV vaccination’s promoters
gear up for the intended rollout of Gardasil 9 among working-age adults.
In its press release announcing
approval of the vaccine for that age group, the FDA claimed that
Gardasil (and, by the FDA’s logic, also Gardasil 9 “since the vaccines
are manufactured similarly and cover four of the same HPV types”) is
“88% effective”; French doctor Nicole Delépine rightly points out that
the agency could only come up with this “misleading” statement by using
a scientifically absurd hodge-podge of combined endpoints—persistent
infection, genital warts, vulvar and vaginal precancerous lesions,
cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer related to HPV types
covered by the vaccine—“instead of presenting the results of the vaccine
on each targeted pathology.”
Aware that “the incidence of invasive cancers has increased sharply (sometimes
exceeding 100%) in the vaccinated age groups” in countries with mass
HPV vaccination, Dr. Delépine finds the FDA’s effrontery “incredible.”
Others agree, describing the aggressive hawking of HPV vaccination as an
“obscene public farce.” Discussing regulatory bodies’ lack of transparency and rigor, two researchers wrote in 2016, “ No public health intervention should be shrouded in so much secrecy that it gives rise to suspicion.”
