The Conspiracy of Silence About HPV and Lung Cancer

The weight of the evidence of more than 50 studies implicates human papillomaviruses a a cause of ten times more U.S. lung cancers than the anti-smokers blame on secondhand smoke. Smokers and passive smokers are more likely to have been exposed to this virus. The anti-smokers have deliberately committed scientific fraud by ignoring the role of HPV, in order to falsely blame secondhand smoke.

The World Health Organization lied about the findings of their study, for purely political propaganda reasons: "The World Health Organization (WHO) has been publicly accused of suppressing information. Its opponents say that WHO has withheld from publication its own report that was aimed at but supposedly failed to scientifically prove that there is an association between passive smoking, or environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), and a number of diseases, lung cancer in particular. Both statements are untrue.... The results of this study, which have been completely misrepresented in recent news reports, are very much in line with the results of similar studies both in Europe and elsewhere: passive smoking causes lung cancer in non-smokers. The study found that there was an estimated 16% increased risk of lung cancer among non-smoking spouses of smokers. For workplace exposure the estimated increase in risk was 17%. However, due to small sample size, neither increased risk was statistically significant." (PASSIVE SMOKING DOES CAUSE LUNG CANCER, DO NOT LET THEM FOOL YOU. Press Release, Mar. 9, 1998.) In fact, those who reported that this study "failed to scientifically prove that there is an association between passive smoking," etc., were absolutely correct. The World Health Organization has no scientific justification for pretending to have found a causal role for secondhand smoke, on the basis of statistically non-significant results. But this is a mere nitpick, compared to the deliberate, systematic scientific fraud that the anti-smoking criminals have committed for decades, of suppressing research on the role of infections - whose mechanisms, unlike those of chemical carcinogens in cigarette smoke, are KNOWN.

The Fraud of the National Toxicology Program of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences: Environmental tobacco smoke was listed as a supposed "known human carcinogen" in the Ninth Report on Carcinogens (Tobacco Related Exposures, 2000). There is no mention at all of the known human carcinogens, human papillomavirus and Epstein-Barr virus, which are frequently found in lung carcinomas. The NTP didn't even get around to classifying HPV as a human carcinogen until 2004, nine years after the IARC did so. They have still not gotten around to classifying EBV as a carcinogen, although it is also nine years since the IARC did that.
