My condolences on your personal tragedy. I can’t imagine what it is like to have to deal with such a situation.

However that does not change the science and valid questions surrounding Gardasil and how it has been marketed. I find it repulsive that a pharmaceutical companies prey on parent’s love and desire to protect their children, abusing those emotions misrepresent their products.

From what I have scene the benefits of the vaccine far outweigh the potential side effects. That being said, Merck has every right and every responsibility to it's stock holders to aggressively market it's approved products.

This is an important drug that can help to reduce a large percentage of HPV related diseases.

Perry gave parents an opt out. An opt in was already available. An opt out would require that a persons insurance pay for the drug increasing choice and freedom not lessening it.
