Well, if you're pro-life, you should be for this.

This is defintely one of those cases where a law could be passed, but there would be no way I would allow it to be enforced on my family.

They will have an exception for people who object on religious beliefs as is the case with most every "compulsory" medical procedure.

Is there a religion out there that doesn't want to prevent a type of cancer?

I'm torn . . . On one level it's disturbing that we are vaccinating 12-13 yr olds for an STD, but on another level, how is it different from a measles vaccine other than the way it affects sensibilities?

Forget the fact that HPV is not just an STD. That's right, women don't have to have sex to get it. So, I think requiring it, since vaccinations are required in school districts anyways, is a foregone conclusion. HPV can be a dangerous thing that anyone can get, it's a good decision

Yep, I unfortunately have to see cancer every day and if a shot can prevent any of it, I say take it run.

Too simplistic of a view. If a shot can fix it then do it. There is no tellling if the shot will end up causing some other kind of a problem that cannot be seen at this moment. This culture is too quick to go injecting things in their bodies without knowing the full story. Just because the FDA approved it and Merck is hammering legislatures to have it pushed into every female body they can, does not mean it is proven as safe.

and if it is proven safe, will you still be against it on the grounds of it being a violation of privacy?

Is this an infectous disease? I would think measles, chicken pox, etc. vaccines are required because a child with one of these diseases can infect so many others merely by showing up at school.

If HPV isn't communicable on the same level, why require people to be vaccinated?

It is not commuicable on the same level. So I agree.

Yes I would still be against it. This is not some sort of epidemic that this shot is stopping. If they are going to do this, why not ban swimming pools while they are at it. A couple thousand people a year drown in them. I am sure there are many other things they could outlaw to save lives as well.

This vaccine does'nt protect against all types of the HPV if I recall what I've read and I'm wondering what side effects this shot may bring around. Because I'm reasonably sure that the FDA is as we speak making apologies and payouts for damages done by some drug they've pushed on the public in a hurry without adequate testing by some lobbyist with a wish list and a bag of cash. Well maybe not the FDA is paying damages but someone in the chain is...it's always the same, cash politics.

cancer isn't an epidemic? i'm pretty sure, whether indirectly or not, this helps prevent cancer. i don't feel the need to present a rebuttal for the swimming pool comment as i feel it was rhetorical.

So this shot prevents every cancer? No.

The one cancer it does prevent is not some rampaging epidemic.

Being forced on people is not a good idea.

Anyone supporting this legislation may as well support illegalizing smoking. That would prevent more cancers than this vaccine.

the difference is that smoking is a choice, getting hpv isn't. i don't see the difference between this and getting MMRs

MMR prevents against contagious diseases. Cancer is not contagious.

So if one is against the government making this decision, would that mean that the same person is against the government sticking their noses into the subject of abortion?
