    Gardasil  all HPV vaccines

    acquired immunity was seen and documented  ,  a vaccine was made after

    a small piece of acquired immunity is in the vaccine and then the learned immunity is made

    HPV  NO.no.no;  an acquired immunity to never get the wart again has ever accured
    in animal and man….

    besides the bull a wart is called different were it is located plantar, common the others
    they grow different where they are located….

    Merck’s label is a lie
    it does not demonstrate that acquired immunity has been established and part of it is in the vaccine

    No  they continuously lie…

    WHat are those strains they are not that compicated….

    No MSDS….

    Not all testing completed…..

    Merck sent the paperwork to make legal gardasil  not  the EPA……
