HPV infection is the most common sexually transmitted disease. Between 75-80% of females and males in the U.S. will be infected at some point in their lives. Most will overcome the infection with no ill effects. But in some, infections lead to cellular changes that cause warts or cancer, including cervical and vaginal cancers in women and anal cancers in men and women.
Administering HPV vaccines for girls and young women has become a
controversial topic, with some parents uncomfortable vaccinating
children as young as 11 for a sexually transmitted disease. Doctors say there have been no proven cases of any harmful side-effects and that the vaccination is important in
preventing several cancers, which HPV can lead to. The Advisory
Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention is now recommending that boys as young as 11 years old start take the vaccine to prevent throat and anal cancer, as well as the spread of HPV to women.
results from sexual activity, and that controversy is likely to
intensify with the committee’s latest recommendation since many of the
cancers in men result from homosexual sex.
This new recommendation has been met with controversy as well, as the
cancers that are being mentioned can be a result of gay sex.
Do you believe children as young as 11 years old should have this vaccine? What is your opinion?
Note: This is not a religious poll. It isn't about Scientology or any other religion. Please restrict your responses to the poll topic. Thank you.
The overwhelming medical effect this is going to have is to prevent men who come into contact with the virus from transmitting it to other women - to whom it is a serious risk. And considering how prevalent it is, I find arguments that there's something unseemly about innocculating children against it offensive.
Giving them the vaccine at any age is not giving permission to begin sexual relationships. Considering that HPV in many cases is one of the least concerning consequence of sexual contact I don't see how it could be - pregnancy and HIV are fare more significant.
If it were deemed safe by the medical establishment, personally I would have the vaccination occur at infancy.

Re: Cervarix and Gardasil –

For the treatment of: Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) – Genital Warts
Both vaccines are one and the same drug under different names and are now being extended to the male group aged 12 - 19.
Apparently this vaccine was for the protection against cervical cancer, the male populace do not have cervixes.
After much research; findings show that this vaccine is not acceptable and therefore we as a family unit have discussed the issues pertaining to this subject and elected to forego this vaccination.
Our child understands that only those that are promiscuous and sexually active are at to some extent at risk should they not take necessary moral and legal precautions.
We have read the NHS pamphlet and found that there are unethical values to its content; this has only strengthened our stand on future vaccination drives.
We understand that all human beings carry the cancer gene and any free radical can promote any form cancer growth, neither of the above mentioned drugs can prevent this natural selection.
The rights of the child come first and foremost...

The rights of the child come first and foremost above all else; children should not be coerced into doing anything that may harm them this includes the NHS giving the child an idea that they can make an ill-informed decision based on what adults say is best for them.
The school, NHS or third party agents DO NOT have permissions to vaccinate my/our child/ren
Thank you for your attention and compliance

The NHS letter states: Quote: 2nd page paragraph 6, 2nd line “The decision is legally hers”
This is incorrect and implies that the child has full legal attorney on matters arising and pertaining to her health and wellbeing above those of the parent and family Doctor.
The Law states: that a child under 16 years does NOT have the right to choose their own Doctor or the right to choose their own medicine or medical procedures this includes national vaccinations!
The NHS letter is coercing children to disobey the law and their parents, and implies that the child has full legal attorney
Cervarix Vaccine - The UK's Version of Gardasil
About Cervarix
More than 1 in 10 doses may cause pain, redness and swelling at the injection site, headache, aching muscles and muscle weakness, and tiredness.
More than 1 in 100 doses may cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, itching, red skin rash, hives, joint pain and high fever.
More than 1 in 1000 doses may cause upper respiratory tract infection, dizziness, a hard lump at the injection site, tingling, or numbness.
If the side-effects get serious or you have an affect not mentioned in this leaflet, tell your doctor.
According to a GlaxoSmithKline UK electronic medicines compendium document dated 24 September 2007, subjects in the trial of this product were only monitored for side-effects for 30 days and any occurring after this time were not included in the study.
This vaccine has not been studied to see if it is safe to have during or immediately before pregnancy. It is not known whether the vaccine is excreted in human milk and there have been no studies on its interaction with other drugs (they don't know whether it is safe to have alongside other medicines).
Cervarix is for use against two types of Human Papillomavirus, thought to cause 70% of sexually transmitted cervical cancers. It will NOT protect you against all types of HPV. Duration of 'protection' after vaccination is unknown, but thought to be 5.5 years. So if a 12 year old is vaccinated, it may have worn off by the time she's 17. The need for booster doses has not been studied.
Ingredients:
Two types of HPV Virus (16 and 18)
AS04 (aluminium salts and monophosphoryl liquid to make you produce antibodies)
Sodium Chloride - SALT
Sodium dihydrogen phosphate dihydrate
Virus like particles from the Trichoplusia ni insect (the cabbage looper)
Water - H²O
The Rights of the child comes first and foremost, above all else...
We have to protect our chlidren until they can look out for themselves..
