California mulls giving 12-year-olds STD vaccine Gardasil without parental consent
Life Site News ^ | August 12, 2011 | KATHLEEN GILBERT

WASHINGTON, August 12, 2011 (LifeSiteNews.com) - The California legislature is now pushing through a bill to remove parental notification for children as young as 12 to receive the dangerous STD vaccine Gardasil.

The American Life League reports that each treatment of the HPV vaccine Gardasil, has an average cost of over $360, a sum that would be footed by taxpayers.

Gardasil, the most popular HPV vaccine, has been found to cause dangerous side effects and as many as twelve deaths in the United States alone.

The state had attempted but failed in 2007 to mandate HPV vaccinations for all girls entering junior high.

Dr. Diane Harper, a former lead researcher for the controversial vaccine, told CBS in 2009 that serious side effects could prove riskier than the HPV the drug purports to prevent, and that “young girls and their parents should receive more complete warnings before receiving the vaccine.”

“The known medical risks and controversy demonstrate the true nature of this legislation: Sexual zealots in Californian politics believe that 12-year-old boys and girls are sexual animals that have no need or ability to control their own behavior,” said Paul E. Rondeau, director of communications for American Life League.

“The premise is that children will and should have sex regardless of what parents believe is best for their own sons and daughters.”

Hearings on AB499 are expected starting on August 15. If passed, California governor Jerry Brown is widely expected to sign the measure.

“Sexual politics is not about the health of children and families: Sexual revolutionaries grow their careers, manufacturers of so-called sexual preventions and cures like Merck grow their market, and distributors like Planned Parenthood grow their profits,” said Rondeau.

American Life League is sending an Action Alert to all its constituents in California, and urging its 115 national Associates to support the defeat of AB499.

Um, Perry signed included an opt-out for parents in his EO. Apparently, you can’t tell the difference between giving the shot with parental consent as opposed to doing so without it.

The legislature passed a bill that overrode the proposed executive order, and Rick Perry signed it. Even the executive order would have allowed parents to opt their daughters out of the vaccinations.

Why does he need to have an executive order for a shot if there was a parental override option? What a waste of time and taxpayer money.

My kids’ clinic will make smokin’ London look like childs play if they ever do this to my girls (fortunately, my state, although liberal, has always allowed op-out for just about everything).

Since the government is moving so fast on this; it must have some really bad side effects.

///
apparently, you can’t tell the entire truth.

i actually LIKE Perry, and am willing to vote for him.
but that was a BAD decision.
Freepers from Texas reported here long ago,
that the “opt out” wasn’t as clean as you imply.
and, it wasn’t PERMANENT.
that it had to be notarized, and renewed periodically.
and, if you objected for other reasons than given,
it forced you to perjure yourself.

again, Perry’s strong executive leadership, and conservative principles, outweigh this.
but, he is not perfect. and being less than accurate,
is unfair to him.

This alone would make me move out of California.

This alone would convicnce me to home school my children.

Well, I moved out of California in 1973, and began home schooling my children in 1981.

Perry had a very poor form of opt out. There is a difference between giving consent, and being required to find and fill out a form stating you have religious objections to all vaccinations, and then filing that with the state government in order to prevent a specific objection.

I would have needed to perjure myself (swear I objected to all vaccinations) to ‘opt out’ of Perry’s plan. Notably, the GOP Legislature overruled Perry.

“Exclusions from compliance are allowable on an individual basis for medical contraindications, reasons of conscience, including a religious belief, and active duty with the armed forces of the United States. Children and students in these categories must submit evidence for exclusion from compliance as specified in the Health and Safety Code, §161.004(d), Health and Safety Code, §161.0041, Education Code, Chapter 38, Education Code, Chapter 51, and the Human Resources Code, Chapter 42.

(1) To claim an exclusion for medical reasons, the child or student must present a statement signed by the child’s physician (M.D. or D.O.), duly registered and licensed to practice medicine in the United States who has examined the child, in which it is stated that, in the physician’s opinion, the vaccine required is medically contraindicated or poses a significant risk to the health and well-being of the child or any member of the child’s household. Unless it is written in the statement that a lifelong condition exists, the exemption statement is valid for only one year from the date signed by the physician.

(2) To claim an exclusion for reasons of conscience, including a religious belief, a signed affidavit must be presented by the child’s parent or legal guardian, stating that the child’s parent or legal guardian declines vaccinations for reasons of conscience, including because of the person’s religious beliefs. The affidavit will be valid for a two-year period. The child, who has not received the required immunizations for reasons of conscience, including religious beliefs, may be excluded from school in times of emergency or epidemic declared by the commissioner of public health.”

That’s a deal breaker as far as I’m concerned. I don’t think I could vote for a candidate who would let the state insert itself in a family’s life in such a way, especially when there is so much controversy about this vacine, and especially since I know he got a campaign contribution from the drug company.

I don’t care about his so-called “conservative” values. He’s not a conservative as far as I’m concerned.
