>Doctors here gave my daughter the first shot, against HER express wishes. <
That’s an outrage.
Yes it is. My wife and I took HS age kids in for routine wellness checks, and the clinic separated the kids from the parents. We were told that two of the kids were behind in some vaccines, and should be caught up. Gardasil was specifically mentioned, but not required. We knew the daughter was inclined against Gardasil (give her a choice, and she says NO WAY). We told the doctor of the preference that our daughter had, as far as we knew, but that daughter was old enough (17) to make a reasoned decision, given a choice.
The doctor did not give daughter a choice. Daughter was in fact surprised that doctor showed up in daughter's examination room with the intention to give Gardasil, and assumed that we, her parents had "okayed" it.
The primary harm done was to the medical profession. No side effect from the vaccine, but daughter now reasonably harbors disgust and distrust of doctors.
