Symptoms: Abasia, Antinuclear antibody negative, Arthralgia, Arthritis, Borrelia burgdorferi serology negative
Clinical narrative: Patient got a low grade fever exactly two weeks from the vaccine and then he started to develop joint pain. He got severe migratory arthritis in his lower joints and it moved from knees, hips and right ankle depending on the day. He could not walk at all for over a week and we had to take him to the ER, several specialists and my husband had to carry him around the house because he could not walk from the severe pain. We had to use a wheelchair to get him to the doctor's offices and this was all happening to a very healthy 8 year old boy who had never had any joint pain before. He was taken to the ER, took motrin, tylenol which did not help his pain at all. He threw up from the naprosyn liquid but he was finally able to take naprosyn tablets with prevacid and he could get relief from the pain. He also started to get frequent urination and was tested for diabetes and bacterial infection. Everything came back normal. He was tested for RA, strep, CBC and a battery of blood tests and every single test was normal. He also had x rays of all the affected joints and they came back normal. He had pinkish cast to his eyes during the height of the pain and he also had slight swelling of his right knee throughout the migratory arthritis. After 2-3 weeks, he improved and he was able to stop the pain medicine. Two doctors confirmed that this was due to a reaction to the flu shot and we are never getting one again. We have heard of several other similar severe reactions to this flu shot this year. Patient has had flu shots every year since he was 2 years old and he has never had such a reaction, ever! Something is up with the vaccine this year. Too many people are getting bad reactions to it!

Clinical narrative: I celebrated my 21st birthday in November 2007. I did not live to see my 22nd. Suddenly, unexpectedly, and inexplicably, I died in bed in June. After an extensive autopsy, the cause of death is still a mystery. My family wants to know what happened to me. My family has concerns about the HPV vaccine, GARDASIL, which I had received only days before my death. They are researching the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System for accounts of such deaths. Can you help us find answers...above is one case report. This vaccine is a scam. It does not protect women. It causes infertility, spontaneous abortions, Guillain Barre syndrome. Cardiac impairment and or death, it cause HPV in some! The vaccine industry will be exposed because we the public will not be used and abused by vaccine industry any longer! The CDC and FDA should not be in charge of the VAERS data base when they are promoting their poison in the first place. VAERS is guilty of cover-ups and under reporting. Only 1-10% of victims are reported. That means there are hundreds of HPV vaccine victims not 27 as VAERS suggests! By withholding and suppressing informed consent from people the Pharma industry is violating Constitutional and Civil Rights of the victims. Enough of peddling poison to cull the population and make Pharma rich and further the CDC/other agencies Agenda.
