They didn’t just have to say no. They had to obtain a signed affidavit. A signed affidavit for a vaccine that had been on the market for less than a year.
Do you know what that involves in Texas? Walking into a school to register your kid for school and signing a piece of paper that says “no”... that’s it. Been there, done that. Other vaccinations you need a doctor or judge’s signature. With HPV, a parent only needs to sign. The easiest opt out of all vaccinations.
