My little anecdote about this.

HPV is a family of viruses and only ~25% of them are STDs.

molodyets

correct, but the HPV subtypes targeted by Gardasil are STDs

Littlerich

Definitely don't get it then. There's no possible way your kid might

molodyets

I think people should get it

Littlerich

You want to know a secret that the makers of Gardasil and the public health

Agreed. After researching this, our daughters will not receive this vaccine

I still plan on giving it to my kids. HPV is the most common STD out there. It

You never know who your daughter's will end up marrying. Could be a convert or

I don't think it maters when you get it. So will council my oldest to get it before she marries

Adrielle

What if she has sex before she's married?

TCuz

Not sure that's 100% true

Not seeing the causal relationship between your research and your decision...

Have you ever seen a woman die from cervical cancer?

cougarBee

So what's the net lives saved by vaccinations, even if some people die from them?

Indy Coug

1/15/19 10:39am

Yeah, but that was just a statistical anomaly.

John Doe

I believe his point was about the hpv vaccine.

conetah

I just read the actual decision. This article is a complete lie. What happened

vegasnative

You mean that wasn't the most legitimate of news sites!?!?

molodyets

1/15/19 10:45am

haha shocking right?! I don't know who to trust anymore!

vegasnative

You may be a grumpy anti-doctor, but at least you have some sense to be not anti-science.

Virginia Ute

haha I do have some redeeming qualities. If doctors were more forceful with

Calling it a "sloppy article" is actually giving it more credit than it deserves.

FROM DCDIRTYLAUNDRY.COM?! NO WAY!

LaVellIfIKnow

1/15/19 10:53am

And this is actually a good example of why we get bugged by anti-vax people. They think articles like this

jdub

1/15/19 10:58am

Thanks for everyone's insights. Again, we elected against it but are pro vax

whiteninja

1/15/19 11:05am

Please tell me those arent the websites you use for research to make

molodyets

1/15/19 11:07am

No someone shared it on FB...shared and thought I would get a good response

whiteninja

1/15/19 11:35am

You posted the article with this statement: "...elected against the HPV vaccine and this was why."

jdub

whiteninja

1/15/19 12:38pm

So, option 2, exactly as I said. The problem is you posted that article thinking it made a valid point

jdub

1/15/19 12:47pm

Sad man. Ruining herd immunity for the rest of us.

Mr. Belding

1/15/19 3:06pm

Let's be honest here: you posted it because you thought it made a good case.

jdub

1/15/19 11:13am

What a stupid article. We are all dumber from you having posted that. I'd expect nothing less from oil-pushing,

Virginia Ute

1/15/19 11:06am

Just curious, what are your arguments?

Alister Mackenzie

You said it well enough, I don't think I could say it better than that.

Virginia Ute

1/15/19 11:24am

Well that hurts coming from a Ute troll who spends all his time on a BYU chat

whiteninja

1/15/19 11:37am

Oh look, the anti-science essential oil peddler is making fun of me for being a "Ute troll."

Virginia Ute

1/15/19 11:41am

We probably should stick to the merits of the article, and the logical responses to it, rather than ad hominem attacks

jdub

1/15/19 12:06pm

Wow. I know you disagree but we don’t need to be mean.

conetah

I hate the statement "We are not anti-vax cause we vaccinated our kids but..."

TCuz

Not black & white. Some people get caught up in the worm hole. The earth is flat

CarolinaCoug

1/15/19 7:32pm

Man, everything was spelled correctly in that post, yet I still have no idea what you're talking about.

jdub

Flat earthers and antivaxers information sources and understanding or lack there

And just how many folks have died sometime after eating jello-That proves it!

So does the meningitis vaccine and anti-malarial medications
