Default Christians, but also anyone else... what is your view of the vaccine available to

prevent cervical cancer? What is your view of the vaccine you can approve of for your young daughters, available to prevent cervical cancer? For it, why? Not for it, why?

I am not Christian, and I am very skeptical about this vaccine. If I had young girls I would not be in favor of them getting the vaccine.
It is too new to know for sure what the long term effects are.
It has also been, so-called, proven to prevent only 4 of the many different types of cervical cancer. So it would not be something I would choose for my children if I had any.
I also am very much against making it mandatory for all young women to have this vaccine.
I know that it is painful (my sister's daughters have started the injections), you need to have 3 injections for the full effect of the vaccine, and they are expensive and not covered by most insurances.
Having said all of that, I do believe that it should be made available and should be covered by insurance, to any young woman who chooses to have it.

I am Jewish. My brother died of cancer several years ago. I am all in favor of anything that prevents it.
