Boy I’ve been attacked for saying the same thing. But you said it better. I bet you’ll be asked for sources.
Don’t more people die from falling in the bathtub? I think Bachmann did a great dis-service to this country. I believe vacinations are important. I get my dog her rabbies shot every two years. I got my children every shot the law required and they are now healthy and strong parents. Geeze Louise, give me a break!
The 2006 population of women in the US per the census was 151,795,031.

Therefore, 00.07904% of women were diagnosed with cervical cancer that year.
The number of deaths by cervical cancer in 2005 were 3,924.
Percentage of cervical cancer death incidence was 00.00258%.
The Gardasil complication rate is at least .375%.
The Gardasil death rate is .0125% .
You left some things out:
- If gardasil works, it’ll only protect against two forms of HPV that (supposedly) protect against 70% of cervical cancers, not all cervical cancer
- Gardasil will need boosters every 5 years. if a woman doesn’t get the boosters, she won’t be protected at all
- Merck admits that they don’t even know for sure that gardasil will work. HPV has a 15-20 year incubation period before it causes cancer. Merck only followed their test subjects for 1.5-3 years. (It was those subjects that showed a 17% reduction in HPV infections vs. controls - not the 70% that should’ve been had gardasil worked as well as promised)
Gardasil is NOT worth the risk and should NOT be mandatory.
