Preorder Today! ‘How Merck and Drug Regulators Hid Serious Harms of the HPV Vaccines’
In his new book, Dr. Peter C. Gøtzsche shares his experience as an expert witness in a lawsuit against Merck. Gøtzsche exposes the tactics the drug company used to avoid reporting on the serious neurological harms of its HPV vaccine, Gardasil.
Dr. Peter C. Gøtzsche’s new book, “How Merck and Drug Regulators Hid Serious Harms of the HPV Vaccines,” reveals the scientific misconduct committed by Merck to avoid reporting the neurological dangers of its HPV vaccine, Gardasil.
In his role as an expert witness in a lawsuit against Merck, Gøtzsche read 112,452 pages of confidential study reports about Gardasil. This book details the tactics Merck used to hide the vaccine’s risks from the public, and how the drug agencies and other authorities were complicit in the deception.
Gøtzsche’s book, due out on Aug. 19, is available to preorder today. You can read the first chapter of this “critical act of truth-telling” for free here!
Why this book is unlike any other
Gøtzsche’s unique access to insider reports about Merck, the fourth-largest drug company in the world, gave him rare insight into the behavior of drug company lawyers when a company comes under attack for having concealed the dangers of its drug.
“How Merck and Drug Regulators Hid Serious Harms of the HPV Vaccines” describes how Merck insiders provided seriously misleading information about the benefits and harms of the HPV vaccines.
But it also reveals how Gøtzsche was harassed by Merck’s lawyer in an effort to silence him and impugn his character and scientific credibility.
If anyone was in doubt whether Merck could be trusted, this book provides the answer.
What readers are saying
Martin Kulldorff, Ph.D., former professor of medicine, Harvard University:
“Drugs and vaccines can heal and save lives, but also harm. That puts our lives in the hands of pharmaceutical companies. Can we trust them? In this well-documented book, the clear answer is: NO.”
Marissa Witt-Doerring, M.D.:
“As a psychiatrist who was personally injured by the HPV vaccine, I see Dr. Gøtzsche’s book as a critical act of truth-telling — laying bare the deliberate concealment of harm by Merck and the complicity of regulators who were meant to protect us. This work is not just essential reading for those harmed by Gardasil, but a sobering reminder of the deeper ethical failures in our medical system that deserve urgent attention and reform.”
Alan Cassels, independent drug policy researcher and author:
“If you want the real truth about drugs, don’t ask doctors — ask lawyers.”
