From what my Dr. told me, men only cary it. They experience no symptoms of this at all. Which makes another good point. If the men are the carriers, and they suffer no symptoms, why not vaccinate them? That would be the logical thing to do. HOWEVER, if that really was the case, then like I said before, I would continue to have problems for the rest of my life. 5 years later....still nothing.
For all I know this showed up about 10 years ago or so. Does anyone here know for sure?

Additionally, Merck may not be responsible or liable if anything happens due to the "Biodefense and Pandemic Vaccine and Drug Development Act of 2005" where Americans were stripped of "the right to a trial by jury if harmed by an experimental or licensed drug or vaccine that they are forced by government" to take.
