it is such a conflict of interest that it is mind-boggling!!!!!...i can't believe that stuff like this doesn't raise legal issues..that alone the anger of the public.
is the public that brain washed to not care about the obvious money conection..signing an EO to get this done??!

.but i guess it is for your own good..all in the name of safety...please stand in the left line if you have been vacinated..the right line if you have not..(and are thumbing your nose at the govt....papers please)

Yes, I was also wondering about sterilization.

Rich people with political power playing 'God' and forcibly sterilizing thousands or millions of young people should not be acceptable.

Infertility specialists make lots of money off young people desparate to have a family.

There are a lot of people talking about this in Texas and most are upset. The general understanding is that the virus can be carried by both sexes. Only girls are targeted, one would assume because of the cancer risk. I wonder if some of the people who have been voting for Perry since he assumed office will rethink their vote. I hope people will findly start accepting the fact that the gov is once again selling out to business.

Well it seems that the State will be getting the bill for the vaccine no the people.

Perry also directed state health authorities to make the vaccine available free to girls 9 to 18 who are uninsured or whose insurance does not cover vaccines. In addition, he ordered that Medicaid offer Gardasil to women ages 19 to 21.

So tax payers will be one that will pay for it.

Yes, but the state gets the money from the people. So either way the company will make lots of money and either the poor will get the vaccine forced upon them paid by taxpayers or the nonpoor will have to pay for it out of their own pocket.

This is outrageous! I do hope the Texans stand against this vaccine and refuse. But I'm sure this will never happen as this is made for the "protection" of our society. I know if I had a daughter there is no way I would FORCE her to take this vaccine. I just don't see how the government (state or federal) is allowed to make these decision without the public being involved.

WE THE PEOPLE, OF THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE...what has happened to us.

From what I hear they will accept a signed form from the parents to exempt the requirement. It does sound a bit fishy that he's closely related to someone who may have a financial interest in this happening, but still I don't know why any parent wouldn't want this vaccine to be administered. It sounds like its benefit would far outweigh any risk.

Unless it results in a high number of young women sterilized. I dont know about anyone else, but if I was in texas, I would be raising hell right about now.

Vaccines have never been linked to any diseases, and certainly not sterilization. Anyway, many vaccines are already required, I don't think one more would make much of a difference.

Just more scaremongering.

When I googled the issue, I found out it is not the cure for cancer as advertised by the media. There are at least 4 strains of HPV virus that can cause cervical cancer. This supposedly takes care of only 2 of the 4 strains. This is only a preventable action. If you already have the virus, the vaccine will not work. It will only work in women under 24 years of age.

Also the tests were run on adult women in their child bearing years already able to have sexual relations. There have been no tests done on young girls. There have been no long term tests. They don't know what will happen ten or twenty years down the road. Nice, huh? We could very well have several generations of steril girls, or women baring deformed babies later on.

If the media would only tell the people the truth that it is not a cure all for cervical cancer and has not been tested long term, then the majority of the population would seriously be questioning the mandate. As of right now, they are being sheeple and believing the media lies.

Forget about the money. If it works it will keep women from having cervical cancer, and certain STV's, this far outways any money these company's make. If it works, who freaken cares, they will deserve it. As a son, a brother, and future husband, i love this drug, IF IT WORKS.

I agree if it prevents the cervical cancer then yes it should be used, but why must they FORCE the issue as they are doing? If it's a good vaccine as they say people will be lining up to get it without being forced to do so.

Folks, I'm not so sure about this one.

Hmm, cervical cancer. That's an interesting place for us to find a vaccine for cancer. What about breast cancer? Throat cancer? Don't those potentially have viruses as well? Where is that breast cancer vaccine or the throat cancer vaccine?

I've seen too much crap in this world as of late, I can't help but believe this may be a conspiracy. I have an inclination to call Bull S$#$ on this.

Why the heck should I believe Big Pharma gives a crap about us, with all the poison they promote over the airwaves? "Solutions" that cause multiple side effects.

As a daughter, a sister, a future wife and future mother, I disagree with the use of this drug.


Drugs do NOT replace education and values.


Drugs are the way to circumvent people's unwillingess to take responsibility for their actions, and the consequences.

This is UNACCEPTABLE! Cancer isn't something that is spread like Mumps (which I can understand a shot for). If I lived in Texas I'd be having a hissy-fit. I'm sure that eventually it will be mandatory all over the country. This is OUTRAGEOUS!

I predict many more people will take the path that we did - HOME SCHOOL!

I'm not happy with this at all! It's unnecessary and intrusive!!

GRRRRR!

If you CHOOSE to leave your children at risk, ...

From what I understand the shot isn't a 'for sure' against cancer. It's very new as well. At this point the long term side effects aren't known. This shot makes me VERY nervous.

I'm not a person who is shot-weary. We have given our daughter all the shots ... and a few extra that aren't required as well (we were traveling overseas).

Something about THIS shot isn't sitting well with me. I can't exactly put my finger on it. Mothers intuition perhaps ....
