Skepticat has blogged a number of very important links about the cervical cancer vaccine scare cooked up by the press. The death of Natalie Morton was a tragedy, but was caused by the large undiagnosed tumour in her chest. Not the vaccine that will save the lives of a significant number of her peers.
Sadly, a rather foolish headteacher and some very irresponsible journalists have made sure some parents are too frightened to have their children vaccinated.
Some useful links with more information can be found here, here and here.
