In the budget for 2009 the funds for the cervical cancer vaccination for 12 year old girls have been removed. If parents are to pay for the vaccination it will cost in the region of 600 euro which many cannot afford.
It is understandable that some things may need to lose funds but this could be a life saving vaccination. We all know people that suffer from the disease... how do you feel about the fact that our Government has decided not to help prevent it.
Cervical cancer is also known as the silent killer!
We, the undersigned, call on the Department of Health, Ireland, to reinstate the cervical cancer vaccination for girls between the ages of 11 - 13.
It is a life threatening disease that could be prevented with the aid of this vaccination.
