Michigan - Senate requires girls to get vaccine for cervical cancer

[Guest guest]

It does says it lets parents choose to not have. Weird. Bet that won't be

spelled out very clearly.

Michigan already has a philosophical exemption which most people know

nothing about

Senate requires girls to get vaccine for cervical cancer

Updated: Sep 21, 2006 01:04 PM

LANSING (AP) -- Michigan girls entering the sixth grade next year would

have to be vaccinated against cervical cancer under bills passed by the

state Senate.

The measure lets parents choose to not have their children immunized.

The legislation is the first of its kind in the United States. It heads to

the state House after passing the Senate on a 36-to-1 vote Wednesday.

The Food and Drug Administration has approved the cervical cancer vaccine

for use in girls as young as nine, and in women up to age 26. It's been

called a breakthrough in cancer prevention.

Some conservative groups have argued that requiring the vaccine would

infringe on parents' rights and send a message that underage sex is OK.
