I've taken my rounds of gardasil and not a single side affect. I hope you anti vaxxers realize that just because something happened to a few children doesn't mean that all or even most are going to have the same effect. Gardasil is very safe and i'd say that the benifits definitely out weigh the risks.

I agree with you!
With the right Physician and the right medications no disease is incurable.
For the past 8years I and my family confined in herbs from NZE NJOKU HERBAL HOME for perfect health. No side effect from this herbs for 8years and I barely fall sick even when I feel sick it's never been more than a day at most.
I personally recommend this washing and setting herbs for men who are impotent and can not perform in bed.
Men with waist and back pain of any cause.
Women with womb and cannot conceive.
Joint issues including arthritis.
With infections and STDs.

I took the hpv vaccine and had a syncopal seizure around 3 seconds after the needle left my arm. I woke up feeling shaky and tingly with doctors all in the room. It can definetly be a scary experience if have my luck but overall you should take it. I’m not going back for my second dose but oh well

Nicely done once again Andrew. You presented a good summary of the facts to help people make up their minds.

What are the head/neck cancers you mention? Are we talking about any cancers that occur above the shoulders? Brain cancer would be one, yes?

When my herpes started interfering with my daily life. And my lips always bother me every damn day. I remember going to the hospital when I was around 25 years old cuz my whole lips were burning like hell. And a nurse came to the waiting lobby and said sorry there are no doctors here. So I had to go back home. My lips were burning like hell and I felt so uncomfortable that night so I turned to #Drigho herbal

I couldn't understand my health anymore cause it was really horrible until I went to test and was diagnosed of HPV, I was really frustrated until I saw a comment on YouTube about Dr Ojeabu and I can testify I am cured.

The healing rate of my tinnitus disease the very first time I apply and use Dr Madida medicine gave me a good impression that it is gonna work and it did work because right now I don't longer experience tinnitus symptoms I use to experience because the disease is completely gone.
