Luminaries from Trivedi BioScience #AshokaUniversity are batting for #HPVvaccine, citing a Swedish research paper.
What if I tell you that the cited paper & its advocates - all stink of pharma money.
A 🧵(1/7)
Anurag Agrawal & Ravi Mehrotra of Trivedi BioScience quote a Swedish study (2020) conducted on 22 lakh women.
The paper is pure numerical jugglery. Either the “experts” do not read the paper they cite, or they think no one will read. (2/7)
The Paper has taken two very different type of samples – a cardinal sin for any research paper.
The women in vaccinated categories are much older than unvaxed. In fact, more than 60% of unvaccinated were born BEFORE 1990 compared to 75% of vaccinated born AFTER 1990!

Cervical cancer’s emergence is contingent upon age - meaning the older you get, the more the chances. Hence, comparing older population to younger is designed to produce favourable results for the vaccine.
In fact, abt 50% girls in the vaccinated category were under 20 compared to only 10% in the vaccinated category! (4/7)
There is more:
4 of the researchers of the paper have conflicts of interests - as they work with HPV vaccine manufacturer Merck!
Can't make this shitt up! (5/7)
And our ‘experts’ promoting this paper as evidence of vaccine efficacy, belong to Trivedi BioSceience of Ashoka University which has received funding from the Bill Gates Foundation under Global Health!
Bas Trivedi hi bachega.. (6/7)
The more they are peddling HPV Vaccine propaganda, the more scarier it gets. What is the interest of so many Indians - from health experts to the media - in pushing a vaccine with no proven record and known side effects?
