Texas now requires STD vaccine for young girls
http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcont....449bc88c.html
In summary, this vaccine would treat human papilomavirus, which can cause cervical cancer. I'm disturbed by this on a number of levels: 1) why an executive order, and not the normal process? 2) why make a vaccine for a "lifestyle disease" mandatory? 3) why is it so hard for parents to opt out? |
