[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 14797, member: 1967"] I agree 100%, kris. And even if the insurance companies won't be required to cover it, the health department would have to offer it to school aged girls. I don't think any state would be allowed to refuse entrance to school because a family cannot afford the vaccination cost. In Georgia, anyone can have their children vaccinated at the local health department for a very low cost. My pediatrician even suggested it when my children were young to avoid the copay but it wasn't worth an extra trip to me. By mandating it as a requirement for school enrollment, it seems like it would make it possible for even low-income families to protect their children. by the way, for those with young girl difficult children, they will grow up and they will have sex (and probably not the wait until marriage kind) and getting the vaccination when they are young might save their lives. I have suggested the vaccination to both easy child and difficult child and they have both opted not to get it (easy child is scared of needles) and difficult child is, well, a difficult child. I wish I could have just included it as another shot during their childhood vaccinations. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
