Disclaimer: I am not anti-vax, I am simply pro-open discussion based on facts.
A study in Sweden followed 3 million women (some who received the HPV vaccine and some who didn't) for 4 years. Those who received the vaccine were 50% more likely to be diagnosed with celiac disease. And 50% of those cases were diagnosed within 1 year of receiving the first dose.
There was no increased risk of being diagnosed with any other autoimmune disease. So you can basically rule out the "Well, maybe vaccinated people get more healthcare" kind of thing. But that's exactly what the authors of the study claimed anyway. Despite the numbers, they decided that it was all a coincidence. This should alarm you. We now live in a world where hard data can be overruled by speculation, and the results of a study can be determined before it's even carried out.
Even if there isn't a causal relationship... with ANY other drug, it would be yanked off the market for further safety testing. We wouldn't take these chances.
But nope. Instead there's next to no media coverage. Young women aren't being warned of this huge, insane, life-changing risk. Celiac affects 1% of the population. If the HPV vaccine increases your risk by 50%, then 1 in 200 women who receive it will develop a disease with severe, lifelong dietary restrictions that they otherwise wouldn't have had. Every woman deserves to have the most recent, accurate information to make a balanced decision. But instead the conversation is over before it's even begun.
Here's the link if you're interested:
I'm not as educated about mRNA vaccines as I'd like to be, but I wonder if there's a connection between HPV and celiac disease overall? Like, would these women also have developed celiac disease if they'd contracted HPV? With some quick googling, I wasn't able to find any links between HPV and celiac overall, but I did find some evidence to suggest other viruses are linked to developing celiac disease, such as enteroviruses and reoviruses. And at least a few sources suggesting a link between gluten sensitivity and cervical cancer. Maybe the issue isn't the vaccine itself, but an underlying immune system issue that is "triggered" by exposure to certain viruses.
