The vaccine works against 4 of 38+ strains of HPV that can cause cervical cancer. These 4 are said to be the most common. However, not every woman with those strains gets cervical cancer, and not every cervical cancer victim has one of those four strains.
In addition, as reported on another thread, there were over 1700 adverse reactions to the vaccine, including three deaths in young girls/women, and over 400 SERIOUS reactions to the vaccine.
To REQUIRE millions of innocent 11 yos to take this vaccine is to agree to murder a few. That’s okay with you?
1700 adverse reactions out of how many vaccinations? Plus, as you say, only 400 of them were serious. 400 serious reactions out of how many vaccinations? Unfortunately, nearly all vaccines carry with them some risk and some people do die from vaccines. I had a severe reaction to the flu/pneumonia vaccine several years ago. Should it be yanked off the market because I was exquisitely sensitive to it?
I do agree that the determination of whether to get this particular vaccination should be left to the parents and physician because the consequences of non-vaccination are limited to the girl who has been denied the vaccine. For vaccines which carry some kind of public health threat (i.e. MMR), people should be forced to get the vaccine. The public doesn't need to be exposed to rubella because someone felt the vaccine was unhealthy.
I wasn't aware of that. In that case, hell no! I'll humbly take my lumps and flames on this one for not being better informed.
