Sanity in the religious right? “Conservatives that fought wider access to a ‘morning-after’ pill are speaking favorably about vaccines against a sexually transmitted cause of cervical cancer, but some groups may still call for limited use.
The makers of the still-experimental vaccines, Merck & Co. Inc. and GlaxoSmithKline Plc, have been meeting with advocacy groups to dispel any concerns that giving the shots might promote sexual activity by young girls.
The efforts are paying off, as some religious organizations are welcoming the vaccines as a new weapon against the sexually transmitted human papilloma virus (HPV).”
