Are you certain this post is directed to me? I agree with this post and your prior one.

When I posted re 'conflating politics with science' (#72), I was cc'ing you as a courtesy while directing my post to Jim from C-Town whose posts have been all over the place regarding the science behind Gardasil, seems to have a problem with patients and informed consent, and has been arguing for nanny state intervention regarding Gardasil which you accurately portrayed as:

"Vaccinating preteen girls that “may” be exposed to a virus that “may” cause them cancer later in life IS NOT a matter of immediate public health. Using your “Nanny-State” reasoning, like I have stated, we may as well ban tobacco and alcohol....you would save many more lives than genital warts or cervical cancer will take" .

In fact I pointed out to Jim from C-Town in my post #57, the same kind of nanny state reasoning would also ban tobacco, sodas, fatty foods.

My apology...I thought you were zapping me. I often get confused and attack in the wrong direction! :-)
