If they had a shot to prevent breast or testicular cancer would they reject that too?

I'm betting there will come a day when someone catches a disease such as this and when they find out that their parent refused to let them have a vaccine they will be saying

"WTF? you knew there was something out there that could have prevented this but refused based on some misguided principal? Now I'm going to die for your principals? See you court mum"

I am also betting there will come a day when a child is harmed by the vaccine and they will be saying :

"You gave me a vaccine without informing me of the possible side-effects. See you in court"

As an aside, a caller to the GG show last night said the cost per jab for UK taxpayers is around double the cost of jabs in the US.

This is a scandal.

Probably not. I think the holdback for a lot of people is that this prevents a sexually transmitted type of infection and some people just can't deal with the thoughts that their children might be having sex let alone the fact that they might acquire some disease. Certainly not my perspective, but I know for many, it is. I wish more people would see the benefits.

I totally agree. It does seem so silly that they are rejected it on this fact.
