‘Just look at Virginia, where a state mandate for the HPV vaccine was passed with the support of politicians in both parties. Chris Stolle, a Republican state delegate there told the Huffington Post, “I’m a conservative Republican and I certainly do believe in limited government and limited interference of government into our lives. As we look at the function of government, I would put number one as being to protect its citizens. I think that a vaccination program for a disease that’s epidemic falls very clearly within the realms of a small limited government.”’

This vaccination is mandated in at least one state.

"I think that a vaccination program for a disease that’s epidemic falls very clearly within the realms of a small limited government."

That pinheaded mentality terrifies me. Remember the 1976 swine flu pandemic scare? The CDC advocated vaccinating 95% of the U.S. population! Ford and the Congress went along with it. Vaccinations began ... followed shortly thereafter by twenty five deaths and 532 cases of Guillain Barre Syndrome. The program was thankfully trashed before more harm could be done. I thought we had learned our lesson ... but apparently not entirely.

I live in Virginia and have a 13 year old daughter. I know exactly what the mandate here is.

The mandate was for girls entering 6th grade. Well my daughter is in 8th grade and has not gotten the vaccine. The opt out is very simple.
