New book: The HPV Vaccine on Trial: Seeking Justice for a Generation Betrayed

"The HPV Vaccine on Trial: Seeking Justice for a Generation Betrayed", 2 Oct 2018

The HPV Vaccine on Trial: Seeking Justice for a Generation Betrayed paints a devastating picture of corporate and government conflicts of interest, negligence, and malfeasance in approving and promoting human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines, touted to prevent cervical and other cancers...[T]his groundbreaking book highlights the lack of transparency, manipulated science, and abuse of state power to market this medical juggernaut...

Authors Holland, Rosenberg, and Iorio uncover:
...
• Lawsuits against HPV vaccine manufacturers and government health agencies are progressing around the world, including the US, India, Japan, Colombia, Spain, and France.
• The US government earns millions in royalties from Merck and GSK, the vaccine manufacturers, for its role in the invention of HPV vaccine technology.
• Although the US government proclaims HPV vaccines safe and effective, it has paid out millions of dollars to compensate families for death, brain injury, multiple sclerosis, ulcerative colitis, and other severe, debilitating conditions.

...[T]his book...ultimately is about how industry, government, and medical authorities may be putting children in harm’s way.
