Full #HPVvaccine media blitz last week claiming 90% success preventing #cervicalcancer.
But despite what @DonnellyStephen & @SimonHarrisTD would have you believe - the figures don't always speak for themselves.
1/
#IrishTimes report refers to anonymous "UK study" - no who, where or how.
Note Twitter article headline at odds with that of actual linked article.
If vaccine is indeed 90% effective then why use this news to urge vaxxed women to get screening asap?
2/
BBC ran a similar report that a few years ago claiming "cervical cancer halved in 10 years".
No stats or study to back it up. In fact the claim was invented out of thin air via the word "reportedly".
"new cases of cervical cancer has reportedly halved".

Not my most flattering photo but an important one!

This is me September 3rd 2012 after spending over 5 hours in surgery and 4 hours in recovery after a radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer. I was only 26 years old. 26…
Imagine yourself going through something like that at that age, imagine your child going through it? And it doesnt stop once the surgery is done - it only begins. I know first hand unfortunately. The Kim you see in that photo has absolutely no idea whats going to happen next..
Life saving blood transfusions, intense recovery, infections,setback after setback after setback.. and that was only the first few months. What has followed is honestly depressing to even write ..

I've been v quiet the last week as I've found it a v difficult week. What started with passing of the amazing Ruth last Sunday then leads to today, Irenes 3rd Anniversary since her passing. I really want to first thank everybody for all of the kind messages I've received today(1)
I'm always grateful of the continued support and compassion my boys and I receive, so thank you from the bottom of my heart. Irene was taken from this world far to early and now we know it should never of happened. She was denied the opportunity to be a mother to her children(2)
a wife to her husband, a daughter to her parents, an older sister to her sisters, an Aunt to to nieces and nephews, a friend to her friends and for what? Failed by her state, failed by the health care system she worked in and also relied on. I stood by Irene for 2 years as she(2)

✅Vaccines prevent diseases that can be deadly to babies and children
✅BEST was to protect children is to vaccinate according to the CDC schedule— others are not evidence-based
3/
#VaccinesWork! MMR, for example, is 97% effective in preventing #measles
#FluShot prevents ~50% of #flu and reduces hospitalization and death from flu by 65%
#HIB vaccine effectively ended HIB meningitis within just a few years

The #HPVvaccine does not cause serious neurological harms (specifically #POTS and #CRPS ). My children will most certainly get the #vaccine , I encourage everyone with children to ensure they’re protected.
Peter Gøtzsche has made outrageous claims about the #HPV vaccine.
Gøtzsche claimed the data he relied upon was in a PhD he supervised.
The PhD made no such claim; even when the protocol was modified to include a “post hoc exploratory harms analysis”; with help from Louise Brinth.
Even then it didn’t show serious neurological harms.
This paper looked at the VAERS data (Dec 2014 -Dec 2017):
“We identified 1 report of a possible case of CRPS..”
~28 million doses given.:

1/n #HPVvaccine Le remplacement des sérotypes vaccinaux existe bien et grève l'efficacité du vaccin qui ne pourrait se réaliser que si quantité de conditions sont remplies.
2/n Entre autres il faudrait que le vaccin démontre une efficacité sur les dysplasies TOUS HPV CONFONDUS et non pas seulement pour les HPV 16 et 19, qu'il n'a pas pu démontrer dans des conditions idéales dans les essais cliniques
3/n Nous avions énuméré, dans notre contre-appel,(CF v IN EXT) les conditions qui devraient être remplies pour que le vaccin ait un effet, malgré tout limité et en POSTULANT UNE EFFICACITE A 100ù SUR LE ccu ET DURABLE INDEFINIMENT DANS LE TEMPS DU VACCIN spark.adobe.com/page/4cbZuGBON…

1/n #HPVvaccine Alros que les premiers vaccinés atteingent la trentaine en UK"Les progrès [pour le cancer du col de l'utérus] sont au point mort" déclare la directrice de cancer research UK, Mitchelle Micthell.
2/n Une publication dans the journal of the royal society of medecine explique les causes de ce probable échec du vaccin: l'efficacité a été surestimée dans les essais cliniques.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n… journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
3/n Comment? Par une méthode qui a été utilisé dans d'autres domaines de la médecine pour truquer des essais cliniques, par l'utilisation de critères composites inadéquats pour évaluer la valeur clinique en vie réelle du vaccin.

[Thread] This day 7 years ago, I was diagnosed with Cervical Cancer. I was only 26. It is a hard day for me but I decided to look back on the good and the bad from the last 7 years, to show how far I have come.. ( using pictures!)
This photo was taken 1 week after diagnosis. Shane, who was 4 at the time, was graduating playschool. Thats Evan beside him, only 2. 5 minutes before this photo, I was on the phone arranging my PET scan, Im upset here but I dont show it
This is taken just after my radical hysterectomy. I am absolutely wired. Unfortunately, I go downhill after this and start to bleed A LOT, emergency CT and blood transfusions follow. I was in hospital alot longer than I hoped

1/ Mother's testimony #gardasil #HPVvaccine
"There are times I feel as if we’re in a bad dream. The medics, the services that are supposed to look after us, they have all deserted us. Girls who are sick after HPV vaccination are labelled fakes...👉2/
2/ "There are no words to describe what this feels like. The abandonment. The fear for your child’s future. The denial of reality. These honest doctors who know what’s happening need to band together & stand up to the system – and the ignorant ones need to get educated 👉 3/
3/ No doctor’s hands should ever be tied from caring for their patients."

Keep getting asked about @ClareDalyTD & her position on the #HPVvaccine. My personal opinion as someone who's been on front line of this quite a while is that her rationalization / excuses are lacking, & she can & should do better. Short thread why 1/10
First off, doesn't bode well when valid criticism dismissed as work of "political opponents". Vaccine & patient advocates have long sought clarification on her remarks. Many agree with her other positions, myself included. Dismissing concern as partisan is disingenuous. 2/10
Daly asserts she's just asking questions - isn't this a good thing? Sure - but "just asking questions" when answer already known isn't a good faith tactic, ESPECIALLY when one's being lauded by anti-vaccine groups for doing so, & medical-scientific community implore you stop 3/10

Small thread on conspiracy theorists - it's tempting to dismiss such individuals as crackpots, but this misrepresents societal impact of what they do. Conspiracy theory is one of my research interests, so I thought it'd be useful to share some insights.. (1/n)
.. firstly, what do we mean by conspiratorial beliefs? These refer to narratives that postulate events in a given sphere are due to the machinations of some sinister cabal Stealing from one of my old papers, we might say.. (2/n)
... conspiratorial ideation is the tendancy to see conspiracies everywhere, and attribute events to conspiracy when there's no evidence to do so. Sometimes these people persist even when their assertions are readily debunked. But why? Let's explore! 3/n

I’m followed by a lot of mums and dads and soon to be mums and dads so on the vaccine issue I will say this and leave it here: as a young medical student I witnessed a young child die of measles meningitis. A horrific death that has stayed with me. (1)
The consultant tried to comfort the shattered team by sharing his certain belief that- and I quote- ‘measles will soon be like smallpox- there is an effective & safe vaccine & soon no child will ever die like this’ This was the early 1990’s.
And then Andrew Wakefield happened (2)
His research has been utterly discredited from every angle & over many, many years. The MMR vaccine saves lives. It is completely safe. There are sick children in Ireland and the U.K. tonight at risk of dying from a disease that is completely preventable & should be history (3)
