Stephanie, we gave corporations that power when we asked the government to regulate drugs. You want pharmaceutical companies to stop influencing legislators and bureaucrats, deregulate drug manufacturing.

and of the 3,700 women who die of cervical cancer each year – 50% have NEVER had a single pap smear. this disease is very preventable in many ways and is not contagious in the school setting. its downright frightening how much sway Big Pharma has over the state legislators – who are suppose to be representing US!!

If you read the research on the trials for the HPV vaccine, it is far from 100% effective. It only tackles about 2/3 of known HPV strains, so won’t wipe out cervical cancer, as many supporters claim.
There was also a statistically significant increase in the number of babies born with birth defects to mothers who had recently had the vaccine.
While such risks exist, it would surely be foolhardy to make such a vaccine mandatory?

As VRB says, parents need to be sufficiently informed. This means both avoiding the “junk science” from “certain groups” and the biased, incomplete information currently published by the developers of the vaccines.

The first wave of mandatory vaccinations had deep roots in public health necessity. Polio and smallpox swept through cities and killed many of those infected. They were true epidemics, with little means to stop them and, often, fewer means to save those who become infected. Vaccination became a public health need, both to insure one’s personal health and to avoid trasmission to others.

The newest wave of vaccinations are not of the same caliber. Chicken pox is but a discomfort; HPV is actually extremely rare. (Consider that only about 4,000 of the 150,000,000 women living in this country die from it every year.) There is little justification for creating the vaccines, let alone making them mandatory. Given that the American obsession with antibacterials and vaccines has been traced to an increase in food allergies (many deadly) it is senseless to attempt to protect Americans from every possible pathogen.

The right for a parent decision not to immunize would be their right, but I would hope they would be sufficiently informed. They should not be subjected to a lot of junk science, certain groups use to promote their agenda.
