To Be Vaccinated Or Not To Be Vaccinated
To decrease the risk of cervical cancer, teenage girls should be required to get the HPV Vaccine.
The HPV vaccine is a vaccine that has just been recently introduced into the medical world in the past three years, experts say that it will decreases the risk of cervical cancer in women if they are vaccinated during their teenage years. The question is: Should the government require girls at a certain age to recieve it?. Honestly, they should not have to forced or "required" to recieve the actual vaccine. The vaccine has not been out in the world long enough, so that side effects are seen. Sure, the commercials state the possible side effects but their could be way more out there that no one has the knowledge of. Being that I am a teenage girl and that I have recieved the vaccine myself I understand both sides of the argument. Girls should have the right to put into their bodies whatever they choose, and I do agree with that. My mother did encourage me to get the vaccing but at the end of the day I decided to have the vaccine. I took it as a percaution, and have not seen any negative side effects but like I stated before there are side effects out there that have not been discovered, and that it is most significant worry that have. It comes down to people's freedom, and it should girls' right to have the vaccine or not.
