ChasingBlueSky 0 #1 February 5, 2007 The religious right are quite upset over this thinking it will encourage teens to have more sex http://www.kcentv.com/news/c-article.php?cid=1&nid=12012 Governor Perry handed down an executive order Friday requiring school girls to get vaccinated against a sexually transmitted virus that causes cervical cancer. Eighteen states are considering similar mandates, but Texas is the first to require the shots. Starting in September of 2008, girls entering the 6th grade must get the Gardasil vaccine produced by drug maker "Merck". Authors of a bill calling for that said they will proceed with legislation, despite Friday's action by the governor, to ensure a future Governor doesn't repeal the executive order. Governor Spokesperson Krista Moody said, ''This really revolutionary idea of being able to prevent cancer, and especially cervical cancer, which really impacts so many Texas women is something that he's happy to take on." HPV is the most common sexually transmitted disease in the United States._________________________________________ you can burn the land and boil the sea, but you can't take the sky from me....

ACMESkydiver 0 #2 February 5, 2007 The government requiring shots manufactured by Merck again. Well that is a big f*cking surprise. The government is also the one trying to block independent research linking Merck vaccines to Autism. Here's a little snip from http://www.newmediaexplorer.org/chris/2005/06/16/more_on_vaccineautism_connection.htm: Quote....The drug companies are also getting help from powerful lawmakers in Washington. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, who has received $873,000 in contributions from the pharmaceutical industry, has been working to immunize vaccine makers from liability in 4,200 lawsuits that have been filed by the parents of injured children. On five separate occasions, Frist has tried to seal all of the government's vaccine-related documents... ...Truckloads of studies have shown that mercury tends to accumulate in the brains of primates and other animals after they are injected with vaccines -- and that the developing brains of infants are particularly susceptible... ..."The CDC is guilty of incompetence and gross negligence," says Mark Blaxill, vice president of Safe Minds, a nonprofit organization concerned about the role of mercury in medicines. "The damage caused by vaccine exposure is massive. It's bigger than asbestos, bigger than tobacco, bigger than anything you've ever seen.""... I have never used that site as a reference, and so do not know the quality of their reporting...I was actually looking for the full documentation from 2 other sites I have taken research from, and this site came up as well. -On a brighter note, 'required' vaccines, at least here in Washington state, will not stop a child from attending school. Every year I have to sign a statement that says if a Measels or Mumps epedemic breaks out, I will keep my non-vaccinated sons home until it's over. Whatever. As long as Merck is in bed with the government, I will NEVER again trust Government mandated shots manufactured by Merck.~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.
