Legislating Vaccination of Eleven Year-Old Girls for HVP

Assemblywoman Sally Lieber, D-Mountain View, CA., recently introduced legislation that would require girls to be immunized against HPV before they enter the sixth grade.

The Federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that parents get the vaccine for their daughters, ideally when they're age 11 and 12. The proposal to mandate vaccination in California, AB16, is giving young girls the wrong message, because HPV is transmitted only through sexual contact. Not all 11 and 12 year old girls have sexual contact, yet they will be ‘forced?to be vaccinated and suffer the short and long-term side effects. Reported short-term side effects include:

?Pain, swelling, itching and redness at the injection site
?Fever
?Nausea
?Dizziness
?Difficulty breathing

The vaccine has not been tested long enough to determine long-term side effects, which could include:

?Sterility
?Contracting HPV
?Emotional conflict—guilt/shame/humiliation as a result of being led to believe sex beginning at 11 or 12 is healthy as long as one has the HPV vaccination

If CA legislates required vaccination for HPV, where will this end? As Assemblyman Chuck DeVore, R-Irvine stated regarding legalizing banning spanking of children "Where do you stop?" He said he agrees children younger than 3 should not be spanked but has no desire to make it the law. "At what point are we going to say we should pass a bill that every parent has to read a minimum of 30 minutes every night to their child? This is right along those same lines."

However, legislating every 11 - 12 year-old girl must be vaccinated for HPV is a different matter entirely. Legislating the ban of hitting children a.k.a. abuse of children affords them the opportunity to enjoy the same protection afforded to all adults. Legislating every girl age 11 ?12 be vaccinated for HPV gives a message that sex is a rite to passage at that age. Is that the message we want to legislate?

A law to require anyone to be vaccinated for anything serves two purposes.

?Big business and government taking more and more control of the people.

?Creating a lucrative income for doctors, pharmacies and drug manufacturers.

Disease is merely the body crying for support to do the job it is designed to do. Your body can heal itself and prevent disease given it has adequate nutrition, vitamins and mineral supplements and peace of mind. Your body needs nothing more.
