Not you personally, probably, but enough people spread these one in a million stories and the outcome is to discourage parents from having their kids vaccinated. How many deaths are you willing to shoulder for your "interesting" stories?
Poor kid. It was tragic.
The thing about those "deaths," the cervical cancer deaths, those deaths are by choice of those who do or do not want to get the Vac.
So it is ridiculous to force boys to get it. C'mon, let's get real.
If you are the parent of a young teenage son, what is the benefit? Why should you be forced to give them the vac for this one? There is none. On the plus side? Nothing. The down side? Possible death.
If you are the parents of a boy, it really is a no brainer.
So you wouldn't care if your son had HPV and potentially infecting any woman he had sex with? You wouldn't care if that infection affected your grandchildren (the percentages are rare, but it happens)?
There is scant evidence the vaccine would prevent it, so that would be a straw-man. What do you think I am, and easy victim of propaganda?
. . . . and as I already proved, in the majority of the population, the infection clears itself up within one to two years. No biggie.
There is no mass epidemic of folks getting violently ill. No mass cancer rates. Nothing.
I'm all for informed potential folks that want to get the vac of it's "benefits" and it's "risks," but it shouldn't be pushed on the public as a public health issue. It is something for the individual to decide, not the government. Especially when it can kill you.
I'm willing to bet, this girls parents thought she was required to get it. Such a shame.
