Study results bolster drugmaker’s plan to market shots to boys

link

I'm actually surpised they took this long to *find* a way to make money off ppl who have boy children since they apparently werent making enough off those with girls.. It will be a cold day in hell that I start injecting my children with vaccines that are less than 20 yrs old in study. I prefer to make sure that anything I put in my kids wont later kill them, make them sick, sterile or who knows what and shame on these drug companies anyhoo!

There is a cheaper way than shots... dont mess around and know your partner...

the vaccine for girls is given sometimes at age 8 that is insane to me

Are 8 yr old girls really having sex? Do I live in a bubble?

Wow, this is interesting. I thought uptight conservative parents were the only people who had a problem with vaccinating children against an STD (and consequently, cervical cancer). I guess there's a much broader opposition to it.

No, the idea is to give the shot BEFORE they start having sex.

Not a conservative here... but I am a mother of a child that had an adverse reaction to a series of vaccines when he was 18-mos of age! Didn't know if he was going to live or die. He's 22-yrs old now and still has ongoing medical issues from it.

I would NEVER tell someone not to get a vaccine just because of my personal experience. I know they've done a world of good too.

However, I am all for EDUCATING oneself on each and every vaccine hoisted upon the masses and then, and ONLY then, if you are comfortable with the vaccine then do it.

But whatever you do, don't just take their word for it that it's in the best interest of everyone to drink from that kool-aide punch bowl.

They are. And you are.
