Hpv Vaccination Memo

Petts and Niemeyer explore the controversy debate on what affects people from not getting their children vaccinated. They did a poll on who gets their children vaccinated and who does not get their children vaccinated. One factor Petts and Niemeyer discuss is why people are second guessing getting vaccinations for their children. The media has presented information, which led to false reports, although parents are acting upon these messages in which change their beliefs in vaccinations. Media has since affected the idea of vaccinations, parents are beginning to look into the vaccinations and predict if they will be mandatory or not for their children.

The article begins with details about a recent measles outbreak originating in Disneyland. “Although epidemiologists have not yet identified the person who brought measles to Disneyland, a new analysis shows that the highly contagious disease has spread to seven states and two other countries thanks to parents who declined to vaccinate their children” (Kaplan 1). The author of this article has been a science and medicine editor at the Los Angeles Times since 2005 however she covered technology in the Business section for 10 years. This could create bias in the article and prevent her from having a complete understanding of the topic. The statistics in the article are beneficial to the reader in understanding the likelihood of the disease being spread and the importance of

Developments in HPV vaccines is important, not only for HPV prevention efforts, but also for the overall continued success of vaccination as one of public health 's most valuable

In the essay, the author summarizes how it is unacceptable to not be vaccinated. The author relates vaccinations to drunk driving and smoking. Interestingly, they compare drunk driving and smoking in public places which are against the law, but getting vaccinations are not considered a law. Considering that getting vaccinations are a choice while drunk driving are not choices makes these comparison statements invalid. Also, the author claims that the declining rates of vaccinations are the evidence from the outbreaks of current diseases.

On the other hand, Bihr gains an audience related advantage of safety values when she addresses the topic of protecting children from harm; Bihr explains that administering vaccines helps protect children from illnesses like the influenza virus or rotavirus. Researchers Ferdinands et al. (2014) found that the “…influenza vaccination was associated with about a three-quarters reduction in risk of influenza-related critical illness in children… Our results highlight the value of increasing the use of influenza vaccines among children” (Ferdinands et al., 2014, p. 681); while Dr. Cave’s (2014) piece, Adolescent refusal of MMR inoculation: F (mother) v F (father), adds that “A global vaccination campaign has led to a 71 per cent drop in measles-related deaths between 2000 and 2011, making a huge impact on the death rate which was estimated at 2.6 million deaths per year in the 1980s” (Cave, 2014, p. 631).

Previously mentioned, there are plenty of stories on the internet alleging that the medical problems their child is now facing is a direct result of the HPV vaccine. As shown above, there is no evidence that suggests the vaccine to be the cause of the problem. In Brody’s article she writes, “The C.D.C has stated unequivocally that clinical trials have shown them all the be ‘very safe’.” This once again displays Ethos because it showcases how the esteemed establishment of C.D.C, which specializes in preventing diseases, has deemed the vaccine completely safe for public

Purpose: Effective vaccination is now available to prevent human papillomavirus (HPV), the most common sexually transmitted infection and cause of cervical cancer. This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of HPV vaccination intentions among mothers of daughters with and without a history of childhood cancer, and young adult female cancer survivors, in addition to identifying the factors associated with HPV vaccination intentions. Methods: Maternal caregivers of vaccine naïve females aged 9-17 years with/without a history of childhood cancer (n = 155; daughter Mage = 12.70 years, SD = 2.65; n = 46; daughter Mage = 12.41 years, SD = 2.30, respectively) in addition to young adult vaccine naïve females aged 18-26 with/without a history of childhood cancer (n = 70; Mage = 21.6 years, SD = 2.68; n = 53; Mage = 20.7 years, SD = 2.45, respectively ) completed surveys querying HPV vaccination intentions along with

This is the aim of this report. Through analytical research presented in this report I have come to the conclusion that vaccines are not only crucial and beneficial but that everyone who is eligible should be vaccinated, as that

The number of people who choose not to immunize is steadily increasing, and has been on the rise since the 1980 's. Should children’s health be at risk for the greater good of community health? The news today is full of tragic stories about complications of vaccine use and there have been injuries from the beginning of vaccine use due to incomplete data on the side effects. The injuries have also brought about changes in the way vaccines are manufactured. The only way to get around the vaccine is to claim religious or medical exception.

According to the CDC, the more serious side effects are rare and there are very few records of them happening. There are others who think they or their children do not need to be vaccinated because of the natural immunity that occurs in one’s body. Some think that because their body is able to fight off a disease, they do not need to get vaccinated. A disease

Parents and guardians believe myths and Facebook posts instead of well educated doctors to determine if their child should be vaccinated. This is a huge mistake! By not vaccinating your children properly you are not only putting them at risk, but the people around them that they encounter daily (CDC). Parents should not be able to make up an uneducated excuse to keep their children from being properly vaccinated. Immunizations need to be completely required for students to attend a public school in order to keep their local community disease

The field of epidemiology is associated with the study of the distribution and determinants of health-related states or events, which includes diseases (“Epidemiology”, n.d.). Epidemiology is also used to study how to control disease amongst other health problems (“Epidemiology”, n.d.). Epidemiologic research is used to better understand diseases, how they manifest, and how they spread. Epidemiologic research has assisted generously in the research and production of vaccinations for certain infectious diseases. When people disregard the findings and suggestions of epidemiologic

For example, some parents are reluctant to vaccinate their children against diseases like Hemophilic Influenza if they won’t be attending daycare. While daycares require this vaccine, this deadly disease is a threat to all children, even if they do not attend daycare (Bronfin 3). People who oppose mandatory vaccinations for public school children point out parents concerned with their children being around unvaccinated children could move their child to a private institution requiring immunization (Murphy 2). This reasoning would only add extra stress for families trying to find schools for their children and could cost parents more money than just being able to send their child to a free public school without fear. The next most controversial concern parents have regards the ingredients in some vaccinations.

Some examples are that for the past several years we have heard that polio vaccine lead lymphoma and caused the AIDS epidemic, and the MMR vaccine lead to Crohn’s disease and autism. These theories, however have not bothered themselves with facts, that might be fair in the time of chiropractic’s infancy, but now, in the 20th century it is not acceptable. The lack of true information about vaccination is a struggle to the vaccination policy. A research by Kennedy et al. shows that health professionals consider that girls are empowered to make decisions about the HPV vaccine for themselves, some of them decide not to take the vaccine for the lack of information.

The presence of maternal antibodies has the potential to nullify any positive effects of the vaccine (Influence of maternally-derived antibodies in 6-week old dogs for the efficacy of a new vaccine to protect dogs against virulent challenge with canine distemper virus, adenovirus or parvovirus) Adverse autoimmune diseases can result from the administration of vaccines (NCHS) Allergic reactions accounted for over half of 5,470 adverse events reported to the Center for Veterinary Biologics (CVB) from January 1999 to December 2005 (Summary of adverse event reports for veterinary biologic products received by the USDA from 1999 through 2005) Supporting Argument Three: Not scientifically
