Government has decided that girls at the age of 13 will be given jabs for cervic cancer vaccines from next year onwards. It was applauded move as to combat the disease but the report in the newspaper today has shaken my thoughts. Is it really a good move or not? A question which is hard to answer as prior to this issue, there were also arguments on normal vaccines contains mercury which was claimed to cause autistic among children.
Prior to the incident that claim life of , Natalie Morton, a 14 year-old-girl in Britain, the vaccination program has sparked controversy as the critics believed that the vaccine would encourage girls to be sexually active at a younger age.
She was healthy before being given the jab and died a few hours after being given the jab. A few other girls also reported to being unwell after receiving the vaccine.
Autopsy would be carried out to ascertain the link between her death and the vaccine.
Professor Malcom McCrae , virologist at the University of Warwick, agreed that in the medical intervention, on rare occasions, a tragic consequences happened. However, he also claimed that the vaccine has been extremely tested to combat cervical cancers.
So, hopefully our government would defer the jab until further details on the pro and con results.
