Correct me if I’m wrong. In order to enter school there are no required vaccines for STDs or cancers. That is until Perry sent through his executive order .
You are wrong, those were on the list but the parent just needed to say no, and they could enter school without it. Kind of like saying the child had to have the right pants to enter school but the parent only had to say no, we have a different color and they could still enter.
Hepatitis B is only spread through blood and body fluids, yet we give babies the vaccine when they’re born.
One third of people who contract Hep B, develop chronic Hep B. Half of them will end up with cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Folks need to remember, any vaccine needs to be administered before exposure. Statistics tells us about sexual activity rates among teenagers so as a policy matter you want to vaccinate before then but not at an age before the vaccine is considered safe. The FDA says that's 9 yo. which is 3rd grade. CDC recommends it for 11-12 yo.
Perry protected parental rights by streamlining the existing opt-out process for Gardasil. Compare to California which has passed a bill to give 12 year olds themselves the right to consent without parental knowledge or permission.
