Lawmaker pushes HPV shot mandate for sixth graders
A Kansas bill would require sixth grade girls to receive the Gardasil HPV vaccine in public schools. Proponents cite cancer prevention and high efficacy, while opponents raise parental rights concerns and potential moral issues. Supporters note opt out for medical or philosophical reasons and expect federal help with costs. Gardasil is priced at $360 for three injections.
