Killing Women and Getting Away With It...
One of the new territories in the battle for a culture of life is new STD vaccines. A few months ago, the governor of Texas wanted to make the HPV vaccine mandatory for all girls at age 12. The proponents of these vaccines say that ultimately, women will be spared from cervical cancer caused by the HPV. The difficulty, of course, is that it assumes that girls 12 and older are going to be sexually active, and susceptible to STDs. The Church's word for this would be licentiousness. Nevertheless, the rhetoric on this has been rather dull. Basically, Texas moms are scandalized that the Governor would have such a pessimistic opinion of their 12 year old daughters.
But now, a turn in the road. We hear that recently three women, aged 12, 19, and 22, died after being injected with Gardasil, the leading HPV vaccine. If you go to this website, you'll see a number of deaths linked clearly to Gardasil, all in the last year. Both the FDA and Merck have denied any link between the vaccine and the deaths, but we know that this is typical of the industry. Early on with the Pill, women dropped like flies. Now the same thing is happening - all in the name of women's health.
