COMMENTS

While I strongly believe in annual pap smears, I am not sure I would let a female child have the vaccination. It took 20+ years for the medical establishment to decide that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was unsafe as treatment for menopause. Remember Vioxx and Celebrex? The list goes on and on, and the hazzards are discovered after the drugs have been on the market for years! I would rather educate than to vaccinate my daughters.


I had pre-cevical cancer years ago, and maybe

it is wise to approve a new drug.
