      Fake news @PolitiFact deceiving readers. HPV vaccine has never been tested against a true saline placebo injection. “the rate of serious adverse events was no higher in those who received the vaccine than those who received a placebo injection.” Who’s really lying here?https://twitter.com/PolitiFact/status/1260582456425689089 …

      According to the CDC, no deaths have been linked to the use of the HPV vaccine. And while young people are less at risk of dying of COVID-19 than older adults, some younger people have died from the virus.

      The “no saline placebo controlled clinical trials” trope is one of the most pathetically easy to debunk antivax lies out there. https://twitter.com/dfreedman7/status/1200561196035969024?s=21 …https://twitter.com/dfreedman7/status/1200561196035969024 …

      #funvaxfact placebo thread: I wanted to only focus on childhood vaccine trials with "inert"/saline placebos in kids since AVers love the "no true Scotsman" fallacy (h/t @handmadekathy). In the process, I found some great historical vaccine trials. Enjoy. #vaccinehistory pic.twitter.com/MloE5apCBu

          In the three HPV studies mentioned, all of the control groups had previously received Gardasil... how is that a placebo group that would help distinguish long-term outcomes? We’re light years ahead of you on these topics over on my feed.

          cutting and pasting from the previously referenced publication about the V501-018 trial - "The placebo used in this study contained identical components to those in the vaccine, with the exception of HPV L1 VLPs and aluminum adjuvant"
