An organization known as the GAVI Alliance has launched a new campaign to vaccinate up to 2 million women with the HPV vaccines Cervarix or Gardasil by the year 2015. These vaccines have been shown to have very dangerous side effects, up to and including death. Nine countries are being targeted by the campaign.
The GAVI Alliance has financial backing from the World Bank, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the vaccine industry, among others.
According to Natural Society:
“Merck is offering GAVI a deep discount on Gardasil, down to $5 per vaccine from $15 per three-dose course. While this may seem thoughtful, as GAVI appears to make 0 profit from their ‘generous’ act of dishing out the deadly Gardasil vaccine on poor nations, Merck stands to make a substantial profit. Thanks to a GAVI co-financing policy, recipient countries are required to contribute toward the cost of the vaccines. This guarantees that not only Merck, but Gavi as well, will receive considerable amounts of cash from the 9 unknown countries in which the HPV shots are being administered.”
