Thank you for caring about children, parental rights, health, and your God-given liberties! If you want to see the ineffective, harmful, tyrannical Gardasil bill (AB 659) stopped on the Assembly floor, and if you’ve already called your own assemblymember and Democrat Akilah Weber, here are a bunch of “swing votes” who need a flood of calls this weekend. Because the Assembly floor vote on AB 659 could be as soon as Monday afternoon! In the 80-member California Assembly, there are 62 Democrats (a 3/4ths supermajority). Because a majority vote to pass bills is 41, our side must pull off at least 22 Democrats. Please leave anonymous voicemails this weekend and by 8am Monday for some or all of the deciding votes and “swing votes” that SaveCalifornia.com has identified. Anonymous, because messages where you reveal you live outside the district will be “trashed.” So be wise, strategic, and anonymous when you leave voicemails anytime this weekend. If you can participate, your calls should take less than a minute each! Tell these Democrat assemblymembers, “Oppose AB 659, which falsely claims risky Gardasil shots are mandated. Stop misleading children and young adults and their families — defeat this dishonest bill.” FIRST PRIORITY 14 NEW DEMOCRATS WHO MIGHT NOT BE BIG PHARMA PROSTITUTES YET Dawn Addis (916) 319-2030 Capitol office | (805) 549-3001 district office Jasmeet Bains (916) 319-2035 Capitol office | (661) 335-0302 district office Juan Carrillo (916) 319-2039 Capitol office | (661) 266-3908 district office Damon Connolly (916) 319-2012 Capitol office | (415) 479-4920 district office Gregg Hart (916) 319-2037 Capitol office | (805) 564-1649 district office Josh Lowenthal (916) 319-2069 Capitol office | (562) 429-0470 district office Stephanie Nguyen (916) 319-2010 Capitol office | (916) 670-7888 district office Liz Ortega (916) 319-2020 Capitol office | (510) 583-8818 district office Blanca Pacheco (916) 319-2064 Capitol office | (562) 861-5803 district office Diane Papan (916) 319-2021 Capitol office | (650) 349-2200 district office Gail Pellerin (916) 319-2028 Capitol office | (831) 425-1503 district office Pilar Schiavo (916) 319-2040 Capitol office | (661) 286-1565 district office Esmeralda Soria (916) 319-2027 Capitol office | (209) 726-5465 district office Avelino Valencia (916) 319-2068 Capitol office | (714) 939-8469 district office SECOND PRIORITY 7 DEMOCRATS FROM SOMEWHAT CONSERVATIVE OR PRO-FAMILY AREAS Tasha Boerner (916) 319-2077 Capitol office | (760) 434-7605 district office Eduardo Garcia (916) 319-2036 Capitol office | (760) 347-2360 district office Timothy Grayson (916) 319-2015 Capitol office | (925) 521-1511 district office Brian Maienschein (916) 319-2076 Capitol office | (858) 675-0760 district office Sharon Quirk-Silva (916) 319-2067 Capitol office | (714) 525-6515 district office Cottie Petrie-Norris (916) 319-2073 Capitol office | (949) 251-0074 district office Carlos Villapudua (916) 319-2013 Capitol office | (209) 948-7479 district office THIRD PRIORITY 23 DEMOCRATS WHO MIGHT STILL THINK INDEPENDENTLY AND WANT HONESTY David Alvarez (916) 319-2080 Capitol office | (619) 498-8580 district office Joaquin Arambula (916) 319-2031 Capitol office | (559) 445-5532 district office Steve Bennett (916) 319-2038 Capitol office | (805) 485-4745 district offic Isaac Bryan (916) 319-2055 Capitol office | (310) 641-5410 district office Lisa Calderon (916) 319-2056 Capitol office | (562) 692-5858 district offic Sabrina Cervantes (916) 319-2058 Capitol office | (951) 371-6860 district office Laura Friedman (916) 319-2044 Capitol office | (818) 558-3043 district office Jesse Gabriel (916) 319-2046 Capitol office | (818) 346-4521 district office Mike Gipson (916) 319-2065 Capitol office | (310) 324-6408 district office Chris Holden (916) 319-2041 Capitol office | (626) 351-1917 district office Jacqui Irwin (916) 319-2042 Capitol office | (805) 370-0542 district office Ash Kalra (916) 319-2025 Capitol office | (408) 286-2535 district office Kevin McCarty (916) 319-2006 Capitol office | (916) 324-4676 district office Tina McKinnor (916) 319-2061 Capitol office | (310) 412-6400 district office Al Muratsuchi (916) 319-2066 Capitol office | (310) 375-0691 district office James Ramos (916) 319-2045 Capitol office | (909) 889-7145 district offic Anthony Rendon (916) 319-2062 Capitol office | (562) 529-3250 district office Eloise Gómez Reyes (916) 319-2050 Capitol office | (909) 381-4100 district office Robert Rivas (916) 319-2029 Capitol office | (831) 759-8676 district office Luz Rivas (916) 319-2043 Capitol office | (818) 504-3911 district office Freddie Rodriguez (916) 319-2053 Capitol office | (909) 902-9606 district office Blanca Rubio (916) 319-2048 Capitol office | (626) 960-4457 district office Miguel Santiago (916) 319-2054 Capitol office | (213) 620-4646 district office |
“Is There Objective Evidence that the Current HPV Vaccination Programs are not Justified?”
Session 7, 4th International Symposium on Vaccines in Leipzig, Germany (April 2016)
From the session’s conclusion:
Q: Is it ethical to put young women at risk of death or a disabling autoimmune disease at a pre-adolescent age for a vaccine that has not yet prevented a single case of cervical cancer, a disease that may develop 20-30 years after exposure to HPV, when the same can be prevented with regular Pap screening which carries no risks?
A: We don’t know if it can offer any long-term clinical benefit for a disease that is safely preventable through other methods.
