HPV, Immunization - The Facts Are Simple

While abstinence is 100% effective for those that make that choice. Condoms can work but are only effective is used correctly and as long as they do not break. Also, these solution also have absolutely no benefit for those that are victims of sex crimes like rape or molestation.

It is a hard pill to swallow but 1 in 8 women are raped in their life time.

According to the National center for Victims of Crime:

12.1 million American women have been victims of forcible rape. In other words, 13% or one out of eight adult American women has been the victim of forcible rape in her lifetime. (National Center for Victims of Crime & Crime Victims Research and Treatment Center, 1992.)

In 1994, 64.2% of all rapes and sexual assaults were committed by offenders who were previously known to the victim. (Ringel, 1997).

The fact is these women are often in a much higher risk group for STI’s (Sexually Transmitted Infections). Very often these victims are young girls or young women. This vaccine can at least spare them this additional risk after such a horrible violation.

Then look at the facts:

How common is HPV in the population? Chances are that you have already had, currently have it or will have it.

According to the CDC:

At least 50% of sexually active people will get HPV at some time in their lives. Every year in the United States (U.S.), about 6.2 million people get HPV. HPV is most common in young women and men who are in their late teens and early 20s.

As published in the April, 2005 issue of April issue of the journal Lancet Oncology

The vaccine “…human papillomavirus that are most likely to cause cervical cancer or genital warts was 89% effective in preventing infection with the viral strains and 100% effective in preventing cervical cancer, precancerous lesions or genital warts, according to a study published in the April issue of the journal Lancet Oncology."

According to the CDC:

The FDA has licensed the HPV vaccine as safe and effective. This vaccine has been tested in over 11,000 females (ages 9-26 years) around the world. These studies have shown no serious side effects. The most common side effect is soreness at the injection site. CDC, working with the FDA, will continue to monitor the safety of the vaccine after it is in general use.

So testing has been done on girls as young as 9. This is a perfectly acceptable form of prevention based on legitimate research and reputable sources. In medicine you weight the benefit versus risk. The research is showing that the biggest risk with the injection is a sore spot at the injection site, something akin to a slight soreness, probably very similar to my allergy shots. So a day of very mild almost imperceptible irritation. The other side of this coin is that there is a 1 in 8 chance that the person could have pre-cancerous cells forming on their cervix.

The prevalence of the disease if extremely widespread and can be found everywhere. Every one of you knows someone who has is, will have it or already had it. If you have ever had sex you probably had sex with someone that had it. So it will definitely meet the “requirement" to be wide spread. So the Government can easily show in court that it has a “compelling interest" due the fact that this disease is in fact wide spread.

“… the Arkansas Supreme Court in Wright v. DeWitt School District45 held that no First Amendment right existed to a religious exemption given the state’s compelling interest in mandating vaccination under its police power to protect the public health.g (238 Ark. at 913, 385 S.W.2d at 648). Significantly, the U.S. Supreme Court in Yoder referenced the Wright decision in dicta regarding cases in which the health of the child or public health are at issue, with the implication that a vaccination mandate providing no religious exemption would meet the compelling state interest test (406 U.S. at 230, 92 S.Ct. at 1540–1)."

I can tell you from experience that the scare these precancerous cells cause are not fun. My wife went through this a few years ago. While it is really not a very big deal if caught early, that wait for analysis is fairly nerve wracking. If a simple vaccine could have prevented such a thing, It would have been well worth it.

This is a public health issue, the problem is wide spread and large numbers of Americans are at risk from this disease that we now have the power to eradicate. To put this in perspective, Approximately 20 million Americans (CDC) have this disease; that is equal to the population of the entire state of Texas.

When it comes to this disease, people need to look at the facts and not the hysteria generated by a politically motivated religious right movement that obviously has zero concern for the health of girls or women. It is amazing how much of this anti-vaccine agenda is promoted using out right lies and misinformation. What ever happened to “though shall not lie?" In fact lying and intentionally endangering the health of hundreds of thousands of people is repugnant and amoral.

Three Reasons Why More People are Turning to Venereal Warts Natural Cures

The numbers for those who are infected with the HPV virus in the United States alone are off the charts! According to expert disease control centers, like the CDC (Center for Disease Control), one in two sexually active people in the US will suffer from an HPV infection in their lifetime. Now those are some shocking and scary numbers. In fact, they have also recently added some more information to that statistic that says that if you are having sex, even if protected, with anonymous partners, there is still a 1-2 chance that you could become infected with Genital human papillomavirus!

Seeing as this virus is easily spread, and that many people don’t even know that they may have it until external signs and symptoms, like venereal warts, surface one can better understand how this virus has become so widespread. The startling thing is that the medical community seems to be doing little about it, as warts are not life threatening. But when you have millions of people who are infected with HPV, and with a number steadily growing each year—as the CDC currently estimates that six million people will become infected with HPV in 2010, and that around twenty some odd million people already have genital warts, why is there no medical drug that treats this disease?

Sure, there are shots that young girls can get which prevent a few of the forty known strains, and mostly serve to prevent cervical cancer. And then there are creams that are very expensive and that only have a less than fifty percent success rate – creams that simply boost the immune system response to the virus. So as you can see, there are ample reasons why people are turning to venereal warts natural cures in the US, and what follows are three of the top reasons.

1.    There is no medical cure for HPV, and the treatment options include painful surgeries or freezing, or using creams that have poor success rates. So many people seek natural alternatives to try and treat HPV in the privacy of their own home.
2.    With no medical cure in sight, and no companies making any strides to treat this virus, it is no shocker that more companies are creating natural cures for HPV that boost the immune system to help sufferers find affordable relief.
3.    Nobody wants to suffer from venereal warts, and the embarrassment, anxiety and depression that they can cause. With nothing else to look for, venereal wart natural cures seem to be currently the best bet at eradicating this virus.

New HPV Study Prompts Consumer Fears, Questions

A new study that was published by the National Science Foundation (NSF), and that was based upon facts and reports that were released for 2010 by the Center for Disease Control (CDC), has spurred some fears about the newest vaccine for HPV for young girls, Gardisol, and others that are currently in the making.

The study, which was published in the popular on National Science Foundation’s website (at: http://www.nsf.gov/news/news_summ.jsp?cntn_id=116186&org=NSF&from=news), cites as follows.

“A new study concludes that people tend to match their risk perceptions about policy issues with their cultural values, which may explain the intense disagreement about proposals to vaccinate elementary-school girls against human-papillomavirus (HPV). The study also says people's values shape their perceptions of expert opinion on the vaccine.

HPV is a widespread disease that, when sexually transmitted, can cause cervical cancer. In October of 2009, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommended that the vaccine be given to all girls ages 11 or 12. However, the recommendation has been mired in controversy, and so far adopted in only one state and the District of Columbia.

An online experiment involving more than 1,500 U.S. adults reveals that individuals who have cultural values that favor authority and individualism perceive the vaccine as risky, in part because they believe it will lead girls to engage in unsafe sex. But individuals with cultural values that favor gender equality and pro-community/government involvement in basic health care are more likely to see the vaccine as low risk and high benefit.

The study was funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and is being published online this week in the journal Law and Human Behavior. It found that people exposed to unattributed, balanced information about HPV vaccines tended to produce something called "biased assimilation," a phenomenon in which culturally-identifiable groups draw opposing conclusions and become more divided rather than less divided as they consider evidence.

But when biased assimilation was compared to another survey result, researchers were surprised. "An even bigger effect for all subjects was the perceived values of experts," said Yale University law professor Dan Kahan referring to another part of the experiment in which arguments about the vaccine were matched with fictional experts.

Researchers designed fictional, but culturally identifiable advocates to be seen by respondents as holding opposing and culturally distinct values. The researchers devised the "advocates" to be seen as holding pro-authority and individualistic, or pro-community and pro-equality worldviews.

When views about HPV vaccines came from sources respondents believed shared their values, individuals tended to be more willing to accept the information. But when it came from an expert whom they perceived held values different from theirs, the information was not accepted. In the first instance, respondents perceived the experts to have cultural credibility and trustworthiness, but when respondent values differed from the experts, the experts were perceived to lack cultural credibility.”

Will there ever be hope for a real vaccine for HPV that works effectively to defeat and combat all forty some-odd identified strains that cause cervical cancer in women and that can grow into genital warts and anal warts in both men and women?

Furthermore, we ask, what about men?

When will there, if ever, be an HPV vaccination for men?

Have we all been left out in the dust?

Currently there are few treatment options, and there are not even really tests for HPV in men.

However, there are ways that you can naturally boost your body’s immune system by using daily supplements and HPV holistic remedies that may not entirely eradicate the virus, but that can send it packing its bags into nearly permanent remission by allowing your body to naturally clear the virus.
