Quotes about Hpv Vaccine from the world's top natural health / natural living authors
"But several states have tried to mandate the hpv vaccine for teenage girls, and I don't believe that vaccines should ever be mandated. Whether your child is fifteen months or fifteen years old, you should always have a long discussion with your doctor about the benefits, and risks, of any vaccine. Only then can you decide what's right for your child.
Substance Abuse
Experimentation is a completely normal part of childhood. But in recent years, teenagers have started abusing a record number of substances: cigarettes, alcohol, illegal and prescription drugs." - Deirdre Imus, Growing Up Green: Baby and Child Care: Volume 2 in the Bestselling Green This! Series (Green This!) (Get the book.)
| "But is the hpv vaccine safe and effective? Since the vaccine is new, its long-term consequences are unknown. The known side effects of Gardasil include pain and swelling at the site of injection. Fever occurs in about 1% of cases.
Although it may not be realistic to expect young people to practice safe sex, it is another way to prevent HPV until the vaccine can be investigated further. It should be emphasized, however, that condoms don't always stop infection, since HPV can be spread by parts of the genitals that are not covered by the latex." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.)
| "After a clinical trial done in 2002 initially showed that an HPV-16 vaccine reduced the incidence of both HPV-16 infection and HPV-16 cervical dysplasia,93 continued research has lead to the reality of an hpv vaccine to reduce the incidence of cervical cancer. The FDA approved a quadrivalent vaccine in June 2006. It vaccinates women against strains 6 and 11, which cause venereal warts, and 16 and 18, which are the most common strains found in cervical cancer. The intended recipients of this vaccine will be pubertal girls who have not yet had intercourse." - Tori Hudson, N.D., Women's Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine: Alternative Therapies and Integrative Medicine for Total Health and Wellness (Get the book.)
| "The federal government approved an hpv vaccine last year, and a government advisory panel has recommended that all girls get shots at age 11 or 12- before they begin having sex. But the American College of Pediatricians, a socially conservative group, has opposed any vaccination requirement, calling that a "precedent-setting action that trespasses on the right of parents to make medical decisions for their children, as well as on the rights of the children to attend school." - Dr David W Tanton, Ph.D., Antidepressants, Antipsychotics, And Stimulants - Dangerous Drugs on Trial (Get the book.)
| "In a piquant comment on the conflict over hpv vaccine, Katha Pol-litt wrote in The Nation, "I remember when people rolled their eyeballs if you suggested that opposition to abortion was less about 'life' than about sex, especially sex for women. You have to admit that thesis is looking pretty solid these days. No matter what the consequences of sex—pregnancy, disease, death—abstinence for singles is the only answer. Just as it's better for gays to get AIDS than use condoms, it's better for a woman to get cancer than have sex before marriage. It's honor killing on the installment plan." - Devra Davis, The Secret History of the War on Cancer (Get the book.)
