2) Is It Safe? [by Anonymous Citizen on October 25, 2007]
Even the medical profession is not convinced that this is a safe vaccine. How sad it will be if children are given this vaccine and have far worse effects from the vaccine than from the disease itself. Most cervical cancer is from multiple partner sex. Teach abstinance and that is a natural vaccine. It was not researched long enough, don't use our children a lab rats remember vioxx and other things removed from the market after years of use). In the event that a person does have cervical cancer, most are caught early as long as women have annual pap tests. If caught early, cure rate is extreemly high.

3) Immunizations [by Anonymous Citizen on October 18, 2007]
Schools are not the proper place to deal with medical issues. Stop putting more mandates on education. Information about immunizations is more properly distributed by a health care professional.
