Hi MarineMom613:
I don’t believe the debate is over whether or not young girls should take Guardasil but over what terms the drug is advocated. The only state today that makes the immunization mandatory is Virgina and they do not even enforce it.
The better approach, frankly the only realistic approach, is for the government to educate parents and compel them to voluntarily immunize their daughters. Even Gov. Perry today realizes that he should have had an “opt-in” instead of making it mandatory and impose an controversial “opt-out” provision.
Then there is the other matter of crony capitalism that was much more extensive than what Gov. Perry said was $5,000 in Merck contributions.
Gardisil whatever! The crux of the argument is where does this man stand!!
He speaks as a conservative, he rules as a moderate.
If that works for you, great!
I’ve had enough of that.
Stand in the place where you live to quote a song.
Exactly. My problem with the whole fiasco was mandating that 11 year old girls get it. You have to get it before you are sexually active, or 26. There was absolutely no need to require 11 year olds get it.
