Gardasil: Informed Choice?
The temperature of the heated controversy concerning Gardasil was recently raised even more when Dr. Bernhard Dalbergue (France), former pharmaceutical industry physician with Merck, recently predicted that the vaccine will become the greatest medical scandal of all times.
In an interview in the April 2014 issue (no. 66) of the magazine Principes de Santé (Health Principles), Dr. Dalbergue, who has worked for over twenty years with the industry, describes the widespread corruption and his concern that the health of patients is sacrificed on the altar of profitability.
Dr. Dalbergue stated:
I predict that Gardasil will become the greatest medical scandal of all times because at some point in time, the evidence will add up to prove that this vaccine has absolutely no effect on cervical cancer and that all the very many adverse effects which destroy lives and even kill, serve no other purpose than to generate profit for the manufacturers.
According to Dr. Dalbergue the pharmaceutical industry has hardened considerably during the last decade, as shown by increased violations of ethics, manipulation of clinical trial data, widespread corruption, gross conflicts of interest and generally less emphasis on pharmacovigilance.
The anti-inflammatory drug Vioxx, where Merck hid evidence for years about the dangers, is but one example of the industry’s ethical degradation. Tens of thousands of deaths due to cardiovascular complications were caused by Vioxx before it was removed from the market. Merck then made a change in the molecule of the active substance in Vioxx and produced a replacement drug, Arcoxia which is widely marketed and is suspected of possibly being as dangerous as Vioxx.
When Gardasil first appeared on the market it was said by many that the vaccine was “Merck’s new Vioxx”. Some interpreted this as implying that the vaccine would be a new blockbuster. Others suspected that it meant that Gardasil would, like Vioxx, be a scandal involving tens of thousands of injuries and many deaths across the world.
Tragically, there are signals that Dr.Dalbergue’s prediction may become true.
Dr. Dalbergue went on to explain:
The full extent of the Gardasil scandal needs to be assessed: decision makers and many others knew when this vaccine was released on the American market that it would prove to be useless – and it costs a fortune!
Diane Harper, a major opinion leader in the United States, was one of the first to question several aspects regarding this vaccine.
When asked why Gardasil is not being withdrawn from the market Dr. Dalbergue replied:
There is far too much financial interest for these medicines to be withdrawn.
Regarding vaccines in general, Dr. Dalbergue stated:
Cases of Guillain-Barré syndrome, paralysis of the lower limbs, vaccine-induced MS and vaccine-induced encephalitis may be induced, whatever the vaccine…
Dr. Dalbergue compared the price which vaccine injured patients may be forced to pay to the way dissidents are dealt with in China, saying:
In China, dissidents are executed with a single shot of a bullet to the neck and executions are broadcast on television. Worse still, the victim’s families are made to pay for the bullet used. In my opinion, 18,000 to 30,000 deaths in France caused by medicines are the same: the patients are made to pay for the bullet which kills them.
Dr. Dalbergue is author of the newly published book “Omerta Dans Les Labos Pharmaceutiques” (Omerta in pharmaceutical labs). For the first time a person within the system describes the methods which are used including cheating, embezzlement and brainwashing.
