On Gardasil and Cervarix, plus a FREE Book Summary: "The HPV Vaccine on Trial" and the Documentary "Sacrificial Virgins"....and Tampons.
Sodium Borate (Borax): Sodium Borate, present in Gardasil and Gardasil 9, is used as a pH buffer. It is banned as a food additive in the United States due to potential reproductive harm, raising questions about its safety in vaccines. - The HPV Vaccine on Trial
HPV vaccines have never been proven to prevent cervical or any other cancer. Merck and GlaxoSmithKline, the manufacturers, did not have to prove that the vaccines prevent cancer. They were allowed to use precancerous lesions as “surrogate endpoints” in the clinical trials. Scientists do not know if the decline in cases of precancerous lesions will translate into fewer cases of cervical cancer in 20–30 years. - The HPV Vaccine on Trial
None of the participants in the clinical trials received a true saline placebo. None of the clinical trials included a straightforward comparison of the effects of the vaccine against a true control. We use the term “fauxcebo” to describe the aluminum-containing adjuvants, other vaccines, and chemical mixtures that control subjects received instead of true saline placebos. These fauxcebos masked the adverse effects of the vaccines, making them appear safer than they would have if compared to true placebos. - The HPV Vaccine on Trial
It’s been a while since I wrote about HPV and also a while since I produced a book summary, so here I am doing both.
I have written before about HPV here, so I’m going to minimize covering old ground:
HPV “Vaccine”: Help Pay for Vioxx - Lies are Unbekoming (substack.com)
First, here is the new Book Summary (my 8th overall, see full list below).
This from a very good article by Barbara McKenzie.
The Gardasil Criminal Enterprise Still Defies Gravity – Sto Vounó (stovouno.org)
Merck insiders blow the whistle
Diane Harper, a former Merck scientist and Gardasil researcher who appears to have had a crisis of conscience, has dismissed the possibility of Gardasil being effective: ‘In fact, there is no actual evidence that the vaccine can prevent any cancer.’ Dr Harper also stated that reported side effects of the vaccine prove HPV vaccines are more dangerous than the cervical cancer its makers say it prevents.
‘the chance of Gardasil actually helping an individual is about the same as the chance of her being struck by a meteorite’. (Diane Harper, Merck scientist and Gardasil developer)
Dr. Bernard Dalbergue, who has also worked with Merck, described the Gardasil vaccine as ineffective, deadly and very profitable.
‘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.’
"Selling a product to prevent an infection that almost always resolves without treatment is a herculean task. Selling a treatment to prevent cancer is a winning market strategy, however." – The HPV Vaccine on Trial
Here is the PDF that goes with book The HPV Vaccine on Trial.
In my previous articles I did quite a bit of number crunching to outline the madness that is this injection. Here are some bullet points:
Cervical cancer is rare in Australia, with mortality rates even lower than in the United States, at 1.8 deaths per 100,000 women. Despite this Australia implemented widespread HPV vaccination.
The necessity of vaccinating 100,000 teenage girls to potentially save 1.8 lives 40 years later is insanity.
Assumptions that would be required for this necessity include HPV as the sole cause of cervical cancer, no other treatment innovations, 100% vaccine effectiveness, and 100% safety. No such certainty exists.
Cervical cancer risk in Australia is 1.8 deaths per 100,000, equating to a 1 in 55,555 chance of death. Compare this to death from bee stings (1 in 57,825).
In 2013, Australia reported adverse event rates following HPV vaccination, which were 122 per 100,000 in girls and 101 per 100,000 in boys aged 12-13. Applying an evidence based 41x under-reporting factor suggests a truer adverse event rate of 5,002 in girls (1 in 20) and 4,141 in boys (1 in 25).
This idea of a latency period that spans decades is arguably one of the most scandalous “scientific” ideas they have ever been able to foist on a trusting public.
Here is Duesberg, in Inventing the AIDS Virus, on the HPV virus and latency:
Indeed, the evidence for the papilloma hypothesis has since fallen apart. When zur Hausen and his colleagues discovered that at least half the American adult population and, therefore, half the adult women, had been infected by the virus, yet only 1 percent of women develop the cancer in their lifetime, they began to see a discrepancy. Koch's first postulate has also tested the credulity of the cancer virologists, since at least one-third of all women with cervical cancer have never been infected by the virus. The rest of the cervical cancer patients are not all infected with the same strain of papilloma virus; over a dozen different varieties of the virus can be found in these women.
An incredibly long time elapses between infection by the virus (in those who do get infected) and the onset of the tumor. Papilloma virus tends to be contracted by women who are younger and more sexually active, estimated at an average twenty years of age. Cervical cancer, a disease of older age, strikes women in their forties through their seventies. By subtraction, zur Hausen calculates a whopping "latent period" ranging between twenty and fifty years! Nor does the virus reactivate when the cancer appears; in keeping with the revised Lwoff hypothesis of viral latency and cancer, scientists simply assume the virus caused some sort of necessary but not sufficient mutation twenty to fifty years earlier and can therefore remain soundly asleep in the tumor tissue. But this explanation cannot account for several key facts. For one thing, the leftover pieces of the virus cause entirely different, and therefore irrelevant, mutations in the genetic code of each tumor. Also, each cervical cancer grows from one single cell, leading to the obvious question of why all the other millions of infected cervical cells never develop into tumors.
The technical term for this multi-decade “waiting period” is capital B “Bullshit”.
HPV “Vaccine”: Help Pay for Vioxx - Lies are Unbekoming (substack.com)
90% of “cases” just clear up by themselves. It’s yet another example of the medical establishment whipping people into a frenzy based on asymptomatic “cases” and rolling out population wide “solutions” off the back of that frenzy. In other words, commercializing and profiteering from the frenzy (market) they crated. Once you see their business model, as has been made very clear during Covid, you realise that they have used that model in so many other situations and almost every time when it comes to vaccines.
In 2006 the Gardasil vaccine hits the market. In 2005 there had been 3,710 deaths from cervical cancer. For a population of 149m women, that was about 1 in 40,000; this number will pop up again when you read the Duesberg excerpt from his book published in 1996.
As of 2021, there were 4,290 deaths from cervical cancer in the US. For a population of 169m women that is about 1 in 40,000 deaths again.
So, said another way, the rate of deaths from cervical cancer has not changed since Duesberg wrote his book in the mid 1990s, and more importantly since the widespread use of the vaccine for 15 years on a population wide basis.
This from The Real Anthony Fauci:
Since deaths from cervical cancer occur on average at age 58 in the United States and affect only 1/40,000 women, and since virtually all these deaths are preventable with early detection by Pap smears, any vaccine given to young girls to prevent the low risk of preventable death half a century from now ought to be 100 percent safe—and this vaccine isn’t even close.
Here is Liam Scheff talking about the origin of the “a virus causes cancer” malfeasance.
This point that Scheff makes in the video above about Reverse Transcriptase is very significant in my view. I think it is a very important part of understanding “viruses” through an “information transfer” lens. More on that another time.
Here is Scheff in Official Stories going into more detail:
DNA copies out, never in. That was the Central Dogma. And of course, it was wrong.
By the early 1970s, researchers in the U.S. and Japan realized that RNA copied into DNA. Because this upset the Central Dogma, it had to be considered an aberrant act. They couldn’t say, “The Central Dogma is wrong and DNA is rather fluid. It copies in, it copies out. In, out. Normal.”
Instead they said, “That can't be, because Watson and Crick said so, so let's say that what's happening is dangerous. In fact, let's say that whenever RNA copies into DNA, it is a virus.”
And that's what they did. When DNA copies out to RNA, it uses magical little enzymes to do the “transcribing.” Those are called “transcriptase.” When the reverse happens and RNA copied into DNA, it would be…right. “Reverse transcriptase.” Or, “RT,” as we shall call it from now on.
In Reverse
It was understood through testing a large variety of living creatures, even at that time, that “RT” occurred everywhere. In mice, frogs, dogs, newts, bugs, birds; in every animal anyone could think of. In pregnant women, in the placenta. In fact, “RT” was entirely normal. It did not belong to a special “virus” that copied into DNA, because copying into DNA is, in fact, normal.
But the virus-hunters, looking for a new kind of virus to blame for cancers, had found their dog. And “RT,” a common, even ubiquitous enzyme process, would now stand in for a new kind of “virus.” One that goes backward - in reverse. A “retro” virus. And that's what virology would become. A hunt for a non-specific enzyme.
Again, reverse transcriptase, “RT,” was discovered and was considered to be universal to all animals. But it was also decided by one group of researchers to be all they needed to claim they'd found a “virus that causes cancer.”
Tiny Bubbles
One more mildly technical note before we get back to history.
Researchers did find little budding particles under their electron microscopes and these often accompanied “RT.” But they didn't do anything. Like “RT,” they occurred in healthy and sick cells, in cells from placentas, from pregnant women and then, well, everywhere else too. Researchers found that by taking a bunch of cancer cells - which grow quickly and can be made to grow in glass dishes in labs - and stimulating these with chemicals that force cell division, they could get them to produce spikes of “RT,” and also to “bud” out little squishy protein balls, sometimes with a little bit of RNA in them and sometimes not.
These little balloons of various sizes, which could be stimulated into production by kicking cells with chemicals, were considered to be the variety of “retroviruses.”
It took a lot of work to siphon off liquid from these cancer cells, spin it in a test tube, separate the materials by weight and then try to photograph them. Most of the time, all you got was a mess of cellular debris - broken vesicles and microtubules - the trucks and highways of cells, all cracked and piled up in a microscopic jumble. Nothing particular could be seen.
One thing that could be said for certain was that everything that was being seen under these new, powerful electron microscopes was normal. But the Ph.D.s doing the work had a virus fever. They wanted, desperately, to find a new bug to do what polio had done for their predecessors. It had made millionaires out of lab jockeys. So, “RT” became synonymous with “retrovirus.” Even though they knew it wasn't.
Here is an HPV vaccine documentary surprisingly still up on YouTube. I have provided a summary and some bullet points.
Sacrificial Virgins - The Dangers of the HPV Vaccination | Full Documentary 2017
Homepage - Sacrificial Virgins
Comprehensive Summary
The video delves into the contentious debate surrounding Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines, particularly focusing on the scientific arguments, personal stories of those affected, and the ensuing legal battles. It features interviews with experts in molecular biology, obstetrics, gynecology, and aluminium toxicity, as well as individuals and families impacted by the vaccine's side effects.
The narrative begins with Professor Peter Duesberg, a molecular biologist, who challenges the causal relationship between HPV and cervical cancer. He argues that HPV, often found in cervical cancer cells, is akin to a fossil, indicating a past infection but not necessarily causing the cancer. This perspective raises questions about the efficacy and necessity of HPV vaccination.
The video then shifts to personal stories, highlighting cases like Yasmin Soriat, a 19-year-old who died after receiving the HPV vaccine. Her case, among others, sparked concerns about the vaccine's safety. Dr. Johann Missliwetz, a forensic pathologist involved in Soriat's case, faced pressure from the medical establishment when he suggested a potential link between the vaccine and her death.
Professor Christopher Exley, an expert in aluminium toxicity, discusses the presence of aluminium adjuvants in HPV vaccines. He expresses concerns about the new types of aluminium used and the potential for these adjuvants to cause neurological damage. The video presents cases of young girls who developed severe neurological symptoms post-vaccination, suggesting a possible link to the aluminium content.
The documentary also explores the legal landscape, with various international groups like SaneVax and AAVP (Spain) advocating for the vaccine's removal from the market and seeking compensation for those affected. The video highlights the challenges in proving vaccine injury, the issue of informed consent, and the complex relationship between pharmaceutical companies, regulatory agencies, and the medical community.
In conclusion, the video presents a multifaceted view of the HPV vaccine controversy, blending scientific debate, personal narratives, and legal challenges. It calls for more rigorous research, transparency, and consideration of the vaccine's potential risks versus its benefits.
Key Takeaways:
Professor Peter Duesberg challenges the link between HPV and cervical cancer, suggesting HPV found in cancer cells is a remnant of past infection, not a cause.
The death of Yasmin Soriat post-HPV vaccination raised concerns about the vaccine's safety and potential side effects.
Forensic pathologist Dr. Johann Missliwetz faced professional pressure when he linked Soriat's death to the HPV vaccine.
Aluminium adjuvants in HPV vaccines, particularly new types used in Gardasil and Cervarix, are suspected of causing neurological damage.
Personal stories of young girls suffering severe neurological symptoms post-vaccination highlight potential vaccine risks.
Legal battles in various countries are underway, seeking compensation for those harmed by the HPV vaccine.
The issue of informed consent is critical, with discrepancies in the information provided to parents and patients.
The video questions the efficacy of HPV vaccines in preventing cervical cancer.
The role of pharmaceutical companies and regulatory agencies in vaccine promotion and safety evaluation is scrutinized.
The high rate of adverse reactions to the HPV vaccine compared to other vaccines is highlighted.
The documentary emphasizes the need for patient autonomy and informed decision-making in healthcare.

We live in Kentucky in the United States, My daughter received Gardasil in 2010 and has suffered for the past 7 years with chronic fatigue, severe headaches, mussle weakness, tingling, numming in her legs and arms, irregular heartbeat, back pain, depression, nausea and maybe some I left out. We have seen so many doctors without and anwsers. My daughter was healthy and played sports before gardasil, now she sleeps all day and I fear what the future hold for her. - Ruby Ingram, 29 April 2015
Recently Amelia brough this to my attention. They have recruited Dentists now.
Taxpayer-Funded Initiative Urges Dentists to Push HPV Vaccines
We already have schools allowing children to be vaccinated, here is a link to the vaccines given to children in Australian High Schools. High School children can ask questions and express their views. Parents of High School children are uncomfortable about taking their children to the GP for vaccines they know F all about as they can't answer their children's questions. So they gladly sign the consent form to get their children vaccinated at school: Too Easy!
If they are now planning to pay dentists to sell HPV vaccines, the current sales team: doctors, nurses, pharmacists and school staff, is failing to reach its sales target.
This too from Amelia.
Take a look at the articles about the HPV vaccines on Brian Shilhavy's website.
These were the most outrageously unjustifiable and most injurious vaccines before the Covid-19 vaccines were launched. They gave girls and boys three doses for years, so the doctors and nurses administering those doses heard about all the side effects from dose one and two and went ahead and gave the children dose three. Individual doctors and nurses who ignore reports of side effects suffered after the administration of a drug and then give the patient the same drug again, and again, can be, and should be, sued for negligence by the patient for the injuries caused by the drug.
Babies can't talk about the side effects of vaccines they suffer, older children who are given HPV vaccines can. Politicians have been told (including in Britain) and all but the Japanese ignored what they were told, the Japanese withdrew their recommendation for these vaccines but didn't withdraw the vaccines.
This article has links to previous articles. As you can imagine, these stories were all reported by anti-vax websites, Shilhavy wasn't a lone voice.
Below is a sample list1 of tragic Gardasil vaccine stories published over the past decade.
Here are 10 bullet points from a really good recent article from CHD.
Studies from Denmark found that HPV vaccines were associated with significantly increased rates of serious nervous system disorders, including postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) and complex regional pain syndrome.
A Danish and Swedish study involving nearly 300,000 girls showed a significant association between HPV vaccines and autoimmune disorders such as Bechet's syndrome, Raynaud's disease, and type 1 diabetes.
Another large study of 3 million Danish and Swedish women identified seven adverse events with statistically significant increased risks following HPV vaccination, including Hashimoto's thyroiditis, celiac disease, lupus erythematosus, and more.
A 2017 French study found a 3.78-fold increased risk of Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) among young girls who received the HPV vaccine.
A U.S. study in 2011 revealed a higher risk of GBS within six weeks post-Gardasil vaccination compared to the general population.
Some researchers speculate that the similarity in protein sequences between HPV and the human genome might lead to the immune system attacking itself, causing autoimmune reactions.
The HPV vaccine contains epitopes that overlap with human proteins, potentially triggering autoantibodies against the body's cells, leading to autoimmune dysfunction.
Autoimmune disorders linked to HPV vaccination include ovarian failure, systemic lupus erythematosus, breast cancer, and sudden death, among others.
A Danish and German study in 2022 suggested that HPV vaccines may have similarities to human autonomic nerve receptors, potentially leading to autoimmune reactions.
The risks of HPV vaccination are a subject of concern, and some experts argue that the benefits may not outweigh the risks, particularly for healthy teenagers who face minimal risk of dying from cervical cancer. Risk-benefit analyses are crucial in evaluating the overall impact of HPV vaccination on individuals and society.
Dr. Romain Gherardi and Dr. Yehuda Shoenfeld's independent research has identified a condition known as Autoimmune Inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants (ASIA) associated with aluminum-adjuvanted vaccines, which shares symptoms with conditions reported after HPV vaccination. - – The HPV Vaccine on Trial
Here are hundreds more stories of injury.
PFAS and Tampons
This is just an idea.
I’m not sure how it came up, but my wife was talking about Forever Chemicals2 the other day. Note the cancer risk of PFAS in the Health Concerns footnote.
Then I read something about PFAS (Forever Chemicals) in tampons, so I was curious “are there PFAS in tampons?”3
Turns out the answer is, yes.
Now I was really curious about whether PFAS are carcinogenic4.
As you can see from the footnote, they are.
I couldn’t find any specific research on PFAS and Cervical Cancer, so I was now curious about: How Does Endocrine Disruption Lead to Cancer?5
There is a detailed answer in footnote 5.
Lastly, I was wondering why a carcinogen and endocrine disruptor was being used in tampons?6
Turns out on the one hand you have a known cancer risk and on the other you have: Absorbency, Stain Resistance, Odor Control and Product Longevity.
I guess the FDA would consider that a fair trade.
So, what do I personally think is a more likely cause?
A “virus” sitting in waiting for 40 years before it strikes…
Or
Carcinogenic PFAS inserted on a regular basis, and accumulating, right next to the cervix…
If it does turn out that tampon delivered PFAS are causal to cervical cancer, I am certain they are not the only cause, but to my simple mind, that is a much more plausible causal action than some bullshit virus story.
But this wouldn’t be the first time that a “virus” has been blamed for the industrial sins of Empire’s cartels.
If cancer has been dubbed the emperor of all maladies, then surely the HPV vaccine is the emperor of all vaccines. With cutting-edge, genetically engineered VLP technology; the promise to prevent cancer; accolades from world medical organizations; glowing endorsements from government health agencies; and soaring revenues and market penetration in more than a hundred twenty-five countries after a scant twelve years, few would cast doubt on the HPV vaccine’s regal status among medicines, let alone vaccines. Yet as in the fairy tale, a child can see that the emperor has no clothes and that his regal vestments are an illusion. – The HPV Vaccine on Trial

What Are Forever Chemicals?
"Forever chemicals" is a colloquial term used to describe a group of synthetic chemicals known as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). These chemicals are so named because they are extremely persistent in the environment and in the human body, meaning they don't break down easily and can accumulate over time.
Characteristics
Chemical Stability: PFAS are chemically stable, which is why they are used in various industrial applications.
Water- and Oil-Repellent: They are commonly used for their water- and oil-repellent properties.
Heat Resistance: They are also heat-resistant, making them useful in a variety of products like non-stick cookware and firefighting foam.
Bioaccumulative: These chemicals have the potential to accumulate in living organisms, including humans.
Global Presence: They are found globally, even in remote areas like the Arctic.
Common Uses
Non-stick Cookware: Used in the manufacturing of non-stick pots and pans.
Stain-resistant Fabrics: Used in water- or stain-resistant treatments for fabrics and upholstery.
Packaging: Used in food packaging materials like microwave popcorn bags.
Firefighting Foam: Used in certain types of firefighting foam.
Industrial Processes: Used in various industrial applications like chrome plating.
Health Concerns
Cancer Risk: Some studies have shown that exposure to PFAS can increase the risk of certain types of cancer.
Endocrine Disruption: They can interfere with the body's endocrine system, affecting hormone levels.
Developmental Issues: High levels of exposure can lead to developmental issues in children.
Immune System: They can affect the immune system, reducing its efficacy.
Regulatory Status
United States: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued health advisories but has not yet set enforceable legal limits.
European Union: The EU has taken steps to restrict the use of certain PFAS chemicals.
Australia: The Australian Government has issued guidelines but has not banned the substances.
Solutions and Recommendations
Avoid Products with PFAS: Check labels and opt for products that are PFAS-free.
Water Filtration: Use activated carbon filters that are certified to remove PFAS from drinking water.
Advocate for Regulation: Support policies that aim to regulate or ban the use of PFAS.
Environmental Cleanup: Support initiatives aimed at cleaning up contaminated sites.

Are There PFAS in Tampons?
Yes, there is evidence to suggest that PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) have been found in tampons, including some organic brands12. PFAS are synthetic chemicals known for their water- and stain-resistant properties, and they are used in a wide range of consumer products. Due to their persistence in the environment and potential health risks, the presence of PFAS in tampons has raised concerns.
Key Findings
Presence in Organic Brands: Surprisingly, PFAS were found not just in conventional tampons but also in some organic brands2.
Sanitary Pads and Incontinence Pads: Besides tampons, PFAS have also been found in sanitary pads and incontinence pads3.
Menstrual Underwear: Some menstrual underwear brands have also been found to contain toxic chemicals, including PFAS45.
Health Concerns
Bioaccumulation: PFAS are known to accumulate in the human body, which is a concern given the intimate use of tampons.
Endocrine Disruption: PFAS can interfere with the endocrine system, potentially affecting reproductive health.
Cancer Risk: Some PFAS have been linked to an increased risk of certain types of cancer.
Recommendations
Check Labels: Always read the labels and opt for products that specify they are PFAS-free.
Alternative Products: Consider using menstrual cups or cloth pads as alternatives to tampons and sanitary pads.
Advocate for Transparency: Support initiatives that call for greater transparency in the labeling of menstrual products.

Are PFAS Carcinogenic?
The carcinogenic potential of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) is a subject of ongoing research and debate. While not all PFAS chemicals have been studied in detail, some have been associated with an increased risk of certain types of cancer.
Types of Cancers Linked to PFAS
Testicular Cancer: Some studies have suggested a link between PFAS exposure and testicular cancer.
Kidney Cancer: Kidney cancer is another type of cancer that has been associated with PFAS exposure in some studies.
Liver Cancer: Although less conclusive, there is some evidence to suggest a potential link between PFAS and liver cancer.
Mechanisms of Action
Endocrine Disruption: PFAS can interfere with the endocrine system, which could potentially lead to hormone-related cancers.
Immunotoxicity: PFAS have been shown to affect the immune system, which could indirectly contribute to cancer development.
Regulatory Status
United States: The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has not officially classified PFAS as carcinogens but has issued health advisories.
International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC): IARC has not classified PFAS as a human carcinogen but continues to study their effects.
Recommendations
Limit Exposure: Given the potential risks, it may be prudent to limit exposure to PFAS, especially in food packaging, water supplies, and consumer products.
Water Filtration: Consider using water filters that are certified to remove PFAS.
Advocate for Research: Support further scientific research to understand the long-term health impacts of PFAS.

How Does Endocrine Disruption Lead to Cancer?
Endocrine disruption refers to the interference with the normal functioning of the endocrine system, which is responsible for regulating hormones in the body. Hormones play a critical role in various physiological processes, including growth, development, metabolism, and reproduction. When endocrine disruptors interfere with these processes, they can potentially lead to cancer through several mechanisms.
Mechanisms of Action
Hormone Imbalance: Endocrine disruptors can mimic or block natural hormones, leading to an imbalance that may stimulate or inhibit cellular processes inappropriately.
Cell Proliferation: Hormone imbalances can lead to abnormal cell growth or proliferation, increasing the risk of tumour formation.
Gene Expression: Endocrine disruptors can alter the expression of genes that control cell cycle, apoptosis (cell death), and DNA repair, thereby contributing to carcinogenesis.
Immune System Impact: Some endocrine disruptors can weaken the immune system, making the body less effective at fighting off cancer cells.
Metabolic Changes: Hormonal imbalances can lead to metabolic changes that create a conducive environment for cancer cells to thrive.
Epigenetic Changes: Endocrine disruptors can cause epigenetic modifications, which are heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes to the underlying DNA sequence. These can predispose cells to cancerous transformations.
Types of Cancers Linked to Endocrine Disruption
Breast Cancer: Hormones like estrogen and progesterone have been implicated in breast cancer, and endocrine disruptors that mimic these hormones can potentially increase risk.
Prostate Cancer: Androgens like testosterone play a role in prostate cancer, and endocrine disruptors can interfere with androgen signaling.
Ovarian and Cervical Cancer: Hormonal imbalances can also affect the female reproductive system, potentially leading to cancers like ovarian and cervical cancer.
Testicular Cancer: Endocrine disruptors can affect testicular cells and contribute to testicular cancer.
Recommendations
Limit Exposure: Reduce exposure to known endocrine disruptors found in plastics, personal care products, and industrial solvents.
Regular Screening: Regular health screenings can help in early detection of hormonal imbalances and associated cancers.

Why Are PFAS Used in Tampons?
PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are synthetic chemicals known for their water- and stain-resistant properties. While it may seem counterintuitive to find such chemicals in tampons, their inclusion is generally aimed at enhancing specific product features.
Reasons for PFAS Use in Tampons:
Absorbency: PFAS can improve the absorbency of tampons, making them more effective at absorbing menstrual fluid.
Stain Resistance: The stain-resistant properties of PFAS can help in preventing leaks and stains on clothing.
Odor Control: Some manufacturers may use PFAS to control odors, although this is less common.
Product Longevity: PFAS can potentially extend the shelf-life of tampons by making them more resistant to moisture.
Controversies and Concerns:
Health Risks: The use of PFAS in tampons has raised health concerns due to their potential to accumulate in the body and their links to various health issues, including endocrine disruption and cancer.
Environmental Impact: PFAS are persistent in the environment, which raises concerns about their long-term ecological impact.
Lack of Transparency: There is often a lack of transparency in the labeling of menstrual products, making it difficult for consumers to make informed choices.
Regulatory Status:
Limited Oversight: In many countries, tampons are classified as medical devices, which means they are subject to less stringent labeling requirements compared to other consumer products.
Calls for Change: There are ongoing efforts to push for more transparent labeling and stricter regulations concerning the use of PFAS in menstrual products.
Recommendations:
Check Labels: Always read the labels and opt for products that specify they are PFAS-free.
Alternative Products: Consider using menstrual cups or cloth pads as alternatives to tampons and sanitary pads.
Advocate for Transparency: Support initiatives that call for greater transparency in the labeling of menstrual products.

Glad you're posting about this dangerous vaccine. I"ll admit I didn't read the whole post - my heart has been badly broken by all I've learned about vaccines in recent years, & my brain is already over-full. AND, I know how timely the post is, as I just the other day spotted a big billboard here in Toronto, pushing this impossibly risky, useless product. Just .... ugh.
