Forget the ethical questions, what about the money? What is the economic cost/benefit analysis of the HPV vaccine? Megan Mcardle says she doesn't get the big deal, her commenters explain the big, financial deal for everyone.
Also, Gruntdoc explains the ethical and economic problems for doctors, low-income/uninsured patients and everyone with insurance, too. And in the comments, comments about Paternalism and consumer-directed legislation.
It should cause people to pause that doctors are uncomfortable with mandatory HPV vaccinations, too. How about mandating condoms? Prevents all sorts of diseases, including babies which result in very invasive medical procedures every year.
