Merck and its Vioxx was a big disaster, especially since Merck lied about the clinical trials to get that approved. And although Vioxx was recalled many have died and doctors have stated that it will be 10 years after those who took Vioxx would be clear of deaths and heart attacks.
The fact that this is a mandatory it takes away the financial liability of Merck and no one can sue if they are lying about their clinical trials again.....
Not to mention it is a parents decision not the government...
I've done research on HPV, and the data on it has changed a lot over the years. At one point, they were saying that it was incurable. Now, they say it goes away on its own.
I refuse to allow a government to administer a vaccine for a virus that is still being studied.
How do they know the vaccine will work? What side effects will it have?
These are questions that I don't believe have been sufficiently answered enough to allow our government to administer this shot. If parents want to have their daughters vaccinated, then they have that right.
Rick Perry does not have the right to tell me it's mandatory. This isn't like other communicable viruses, like mumps or measles that are spread through the air and can harm anyone around you.
That is why those vaccines are required for school age children. This vaccine does not fall into that category and Perry has overstepped his bounds as governor of my state.
I think I'll have to go back over our cons ution, we do still have one don't we?
