What's your opinion on the hpv vaccination for children entering the seventh grade being mandatory?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not mandatory: I am not a fan of making this shot a mandatory vaccine, and favor keeping it as a strongly recommended vaccine for all children. This is mainly because its a virus spread through a voluntary action (sexual contact) that affects mainly teens and adults through a consented behavior and not passed to innocent and brief contacts.
