HPV Vaccine



Adding my voice to the others that are very disappointed to see an article 


 in clear support of a vaccine that has serious problems, both simply biomedical and moral.  You will notice that the vaccine reduces the rate of infection FOR THE STRAINS it was developed to prevent.  I should hope so.  But it does not reduce infections by other strains, which also cause cancer, and it has caused life-threatening and life-ruining side effects (including horrific and untreatable neurological problems and death).  Further, adhering to the church's teachings regarding sexual morality would prevent 100% of all HPV infections with no side effects whatsoever.  As a neuroscientist, there is no way I would allow my child to be given this vaccine; and I am very, VERY sad to see this article clearly supporting it here on a supposedly Catholic site.  Simply keeping sexual activity sacred, which ought to be our recommendation even if there were no such thing as STD's, is unquestionably the most effective and healthiest prevention, and is available FREE to all.

Another, more detailed, bit of "Back to School" advice along these lines:
