Not only that but I remember from a thread a few months ago that had a link from MERCK that said most womens bodies kill the virus on it’s own. They’ve created frightening hype in order to sell a dubious vaccine that won’t even protect against all the viruses. For money.

There are a lot of potential bad outcomes here. If the vaccine is still on the market when my daughters are adults, then they will have the opportunity to use it. However, we’re not interested in being “testers.”

I read the Judicial Watch articles you referenced, as well as the Merk reports on the 3 deaths from sudden cardiac arrest / blood clots and a few of the 1,637 reports on adverse / severe reactions.
I failed to uncover what the population size was for this study. It must have been a huge study based on the number of reactions. Any idea what the percentages for deaths was, or the percentages for severe reactions?
It looks like the concensus is the vaccine is effective for 4-5 years.

I agree with that. Not knowing if one shot is enough, how it reacts to puberty and the affect on reproduction is just too much of a risk.

There could be a variety of long-term side effects. Who knows? I don’t see the point in getting a vaccine for a long-shot infection based on “who know?,” especially when we’re already being checked for the potential outcome of infection (cervical cancer) regularly, and the treatment is simple and effective.

Some people don't have all the wisdom in the world like you do.
Others think they know it all---they're called self-righteous.

It’s called getting info and activism. Strange comments from someone on a “grassroots activist” site.

Boys can still get cancer from HPV, though not as frequently as boys. And they can still get flair-ups of warts from the disease. It’s pretty freaking common on college campuses, and condoms don’t fully prevent its spread.
To: DJ MacWoW
He asked the woman why not just teach your daughters to keep their knickers on?This is not activism. It is rude and intrusive.

The vaccine will prevent cervical cancer. I’m not sure how you can argue that it won’t since it is aimed at the most common strains of the virus that lead to neoplastic growth. And HPV is the leading cause of cervical cancer.
I’m not sure what you’re arguing.
Whether or not a child needs this vaccine is another question...
To: Rudder
Telling a MERCK rep that teaching abstinence is better than drugs is not rude and intrusive. However, the MERCK rep stating that everyones daughter is a sexually active liar certainly was rude.

Your projection is showing. It most certainly is activism - although apparently not the sort that you approve of. Instead of posting pointless and insulting ad hominems why don’t you proffer an opposing opinion?
Or is that beyond your capabilities?

I dont understand the weird posts about religion. This thread is about an unproven drug being pushed in WalMart. Unbelivable reaction!
It's a ridiculous reaction, to be sure, but not surprising. The media has made it a priority to portray people of faith as "bible thump'in" anti-scientific breakthrough, stupid, prejudiced, yahoo's. The left loves to break out those themes in discussions like these. The problem is faith and intelligence/scientific inquiry are not mutually exclusive, of course, but that's not the way it is being painted. It's intent is to marginalize people of faith and any position they might posit.

The left loves to break out those themes in discussions like these. I think some conservatives on FR have been tainted by the pervasive attitudes of the left. And I was surprised by that.

The thing is that this subject is just common sense. I read stuff on Gardasil a few months back and even their trial studies were tainted. But common sense isn't overcoming the "SCARE THEM!" hype in the press. This subject doesn't even need Scripture, just the truth.

I'm sure that if in the future your daughter(s) get cervical cancer that could have been prevented by this vaccine that he'll look back on his moment of "standing up for the (my) truth" at Wal-mart and be just as proud of his inane rant as you are.
PS- You people talking about how this loudmouth "saved" some girls are seriously ignorant.

There's no mention in your posting of a MERCK rep. The identity of the lady your husband intruded upon is not described to be other than that, a lady. You did not mention that a MERCK rep was stating that everyone's daughter is a sexually active liar. You were there, I wasn't, and I can't recreate reality from incomplete information. Now, in this most recent post you add information to which I was not privy. All along I thought you were harassing some customer who was at the booth. I thought the phrase was 'teach your daughters to keep their legs closed...now that's morphed into "...teaching abstinence..."
IMHO, you were still rude and intrusive and misleading in your reporting of the episode.

An opposing opinion? Yeah, don't be rude and intrusive to strangers at Wal-Mart.
Or is that beyond your capabilities? You haven't done your homework very well.
