A Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advisory panel recommended Tuesday routine vaccination of boys ages 11 and 12 with Gardasil, which protects against infection from human papilloma virus. The panel unanimously approved the plan, with 13 votes in favor and one abstention.
The panel also advised that vaccinations with Gardasil begin in boys as young as 9 years old.
The recommendation, from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, elevates the urgency placed on immunization against HPV, one of the most common sexually-transmitted diseases and a major cause of cervical cancer. Previously, doctors were free to use the vaccine in boys, but the panel had stopped short of proposing routine vaccination.

Sorry about the double ping. Proxy server or whatever posted an error. (Prolly snooping Obamites...)
Last I checked, it takes two to tangle. Nobody much is getting this from doorknobs.
Having witnessed years ago four or five male co workers suffering from a disease they picked up in contact with a female co worker (within a month), I question the presumption of who is giving what to whom.
We keep being told if only....then it will be SAFE!
Well, apparently that hasn't been done, and only one behavioural change will actually be safe.
Presuming that none will behave that way is a presumption of guilt.
Um, wait, what? You do realize that every heterosexual sex act includes one of each, right?
I agree. We in a cesspool and it’s getting worse than any of us ever thought possible, and continutes daily.
IMO some kind of collapse is inevitable. Then from the ruin we can try again, learning from the terrible mistakes. There is no easy cure for this spiritual disease. People have to realize they’re sick, first. And often severe pain is the only way for people to wake up.
insanity, utter insanity. bet the CDCniki kids get an
exemption.
Gardasil Protects Older Women, Gay Men

Gardisil is like the flu shot. It will not protect against “every” form of HPV. There was a story on the news this morning that said that the flu shot is about 59% effective. A virus can mutate and change, therefore there can never be a vaccine that is 100% effective in preventing it. HPV is of course a “virus”! You can still get it whether you were vaccinated or not.
Why are we flogging this on our children! It’s nice that everybody assumes that our children are all going to be promiscuous. Maybe it’s because of the wonderful sex ed that goes on in schools! You reap what you sew I guess.
My kids are absolutely not going to get this vaccine!
It has nothing to do with promiscuity. It’s a health issue.
Here’s a news flash—eventually most kids WILL HAVE SEX! Their parents certainly did ;-)
No.
It's ideology, not corruption.
Oh, so there is a vaccine for every single variant of HPV now! Not!
I eventually had sex. And guess what, I don’t have HPV. Neither does my husband.
I’m not naive. I know that my kids will eventually have sex. I’m still not going to risk their “health” by having this rotten vaccine with proven side effects injected into their veins to prevent “some” forms of HPV.
I'm not supporting gardasil. At all.
But your comment isn't helping.
"Genital Warts" is extremely nasty, and HPV is known to cause cancer in both men and women. Attempting to minimize the seriousness of the disease is ill advised.
Judicious mating, though, strikes me as a better preventative than a poorly tested vaccine.
OH come on now, a little cockroach poison can’t hurt, right?
Ingredients in Gardasil. ugh
The official policy of the Government of the United States is that judicious mating is either undesirable or an impossibility.
Up until 1997-8, the CDC made lists, occasionally revised, of who should and should not receive Hepatitis B vaccine (except for heath care staff and drug addicts, Hepatitis B is a sexually transmitted disease).
Since the question of inclusion or exclusion from the list became (another) Leftist cause, since 1999 we have had universal Hepatitis B vaccination, starting at birth.
The Gardasil policies are modeled on the Hepatitis B policy - the arguments are the same, the forces on each side are the same, the people with the power of decision are the same - Merck may well be giving a nudge here and there, but this is NOT an issue of (financial) corruption - it's about whether your sex life is something you can control, or it isn't.
Our government, and the entire ruling class, believes it isn't. The people, for the most part, believe it is.
As our doctor said to us, “Two words: penile amputation.”
Thanks for the link!
If you have to break a vaccine into 3 shots, that alone should tell you that it is dangerous!
Cockroach poison, wonderful!
Sometimes I think they are pushing all these vaccines for another reason.
They add so much toxic stuff anymore and then try to force them on people.
Remember the swine flu vaccine that Obama was trying to force on young people for no good reason?
Someday, down the road, I bet many of these poor kids will be sterile. Just what the left and the UN wants. Depopulate the earth.
I’m not against all vaccines. All of my kids are up to date with “everything”. This vaccine cannot prevent HPV! It says so on their own damned commercials! Why the hell is this vaccine so necessary?
I have heard plenty of bad things about this vaccine, and it’s not from the zealots!
Viruses mutate on a regular basis! Nobody can possibly keep up with the ever changing strains of them. Therefore, it is impossible to come up with a vaccine that will prevent all HPV! So why are we trying to force the issue on this?
All three of my kids got the flu shot last year(that’s how much of a zealot I am). And guess what, everybody got the flu!
Because your government wants you and your kids to be happy, and your government believes that, in order to be happy, you need to have sex with as many different people in as many different ways as possible.
