Rat Poison Chemical Found in Ingredient List For HPVVaccine

by Joanne Waldron, citizen journalistSee all articles by this author Email this author (NaturalNews) What do rat poison and the HPV vaccinehave in common? The answer is ahazardous chemical known as sodium borate. Savvyreaders may wonder what a toxinthat is commonly used to kill rats is doing in theingredientlistfor the HPV vaccine that iscurrently being pushed on girls as young as nine and iseven being considered for menand boys. Unfortunately, the answer isn't very comforting,especially for new U.S.residents for whom theHPVinjection containingsodium borate is now mandated.

What is Sodium Borate?

Sodium borate, a boric acid salt also known as borax, hasmanycommon uses. Inaddition to its use as a rat poison, it is also used in laundrydetergents, cosmetics,enamel glazes, flame retardants, and buffer solutions inchemistry. However, sodium borate also has antifungal properties, which means that its probable reason for being inthe vaccine is to act as a preservative.

Sodium Borate Banned as Food Additive

Sodium borate is used as afoodadditive in some countries, but it is now outlawed inmany places. For example, one Australian governmentrecallsitenotes: "Product is Borax(sodium borate) which is a non permitted food additive andis harmful tohealth." So, if it's "harmful to health," why is it being added to theHPVvaccine?

No Longer Used in Medical Preparations

The U.S. National Library of Medicine states in anarticlethat boric acid is "no longer commonly used in medical preparations." It's a good thing,too, considering that the U.S. National Library of Medicine also reports that thissubstance used to be used to disinfectand treat wounds and that individuals "who received suchtreatment over and over againgot sick, and some died." In fact, the U.S. National Libraryof Medicine provides thenumber for Poison Control for people exposed to thischemical and notes that treatmentfor those exposed to it may include gastric lavage (stomach pumping), dialysis, andliquids by mouth or IV.

Sodium Borate Poisoning Symptoms Mimic Reactionsto HPV Vaccine

Sadly, the information about sodium borate gets evenscarier. Another governmentwebsitearticlestates that exposure to sodium borate cancause convulsions and other ill

health effects. Interestingly enough, young girls whoreceive the HPV vaccine havereported similar symptoms to those that appear in cases of sodium borate poisoning. This particular government site provides the following warningregarding this chemical:"WARNING! HARMFUL IF SWALLOWED, INHALEDOR ABSORBED THROUGH SKIN.CAUSES IRRITATION TO SKIN, EYES ANDRESPIRATORY TRACT." Given this information,is sodium borate really something that should be injectedinto humans? This is somethingthe reader should carefully consider, along with the previously reportedinformation, before choosing to receive the controversial HPV vaccine.on HealthRanker.com
