A groundbreaking guide to the HPV vaccine and the science, safety, and
business behind it
Cancer strikes fear in people's hearts around globe. So the appearance
of a vaccine to prevent cancer - as we are assured the human
papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine will - seemed like a game-changer. Since
2006, over 80 countries have approved the vaccine, with glowing
endorsements from the world's foremost medical authorities. Bringing in
over $2.5 billion in annual sales, the HPV vaccine is a pharmaceutical
juggernaut. Yet scandal now engulfs it worldwide.
The HPV Vaccine on Trial is a shocking tale, chronicling the global
efforts to sell and compel this alleged miracle. The audiobook opens
with the vaccine's invention, winds through its regulatory labyrinths,
details the crushing denial and dismissal of reported harms and deaths,
and uncovers the enormous profits pharma and inventors have reaped.
Authors Holland, Mack Rosenberg, and Iorio drill down into the clinical
trial data, government approvals, advertising, and personal accounts of
egregious injuries that have followed in countries as far-flung as
Japan, Australia, Colombia, India, Ireland, the UK, and Denmark. The
authors have written an unprecedented exposé about this vaunted vaccine.
Spoken in plain language, the audiobook is for everyone concerned -
parents, patients, doctors, nurses, scientists, healthcare
organizations, government officials, and schools. Ultimately, this
audiobook is not just about the HPV vaccine, but about how industry,
government, and medical authorities may be putting the world's children
in harm's way.
