Topic 1: The HPV Vaccine Debate

Information Necessary to Understand Topic
Potential Sources
Basic Overview: The HPV vaccine is given as three shots. These shots have been proven to protects against HPV viruses.
What it Does Protect Against: 1.genital warts 2.Cervical Cancer 3.vainal cancer % of Cervical Cancer Protection:
What it Doesnt Protect (Think!): 1.Pregnancies 2.not all HPV 3. % of Genital Wart Protection: 90% Is there a shot for boys? What is it called?
My Level of Agreement: Highlight or Underline One (I think this is.) Really Really Bad For Good for Society Society Potential Advantages Potential Disadvantages 1. Gives teens a less likely risk of 1. It is a new vaccine so it might getting certain HPVs not be safe
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
2. It protects against 90% of genital warts. 3.
2. Can encourage teens to be more sexually active. 3. Does not treat diseases
75%
How Many Shots:
Three shots.
Cost: about $130 for each dose
Does this promote promiscuity or should we take advantage of something that could potentially help us?
Yes, it is called Gardasil.
In my opinion, it does promote promiscuity because teens think that if they get the vaccine they are safe but it only protects against 90%.
Topic 2: Emergency Contraception (Plan B)

Basic Overview: Emergency Contraception is used to help women not get pregnant after they were sexually active and did not take birth control. Intended Use (Why people use it): People use it if the woman started taking birth controls late, or if the condom broke.
Potential Sources

My Level of Agreement: Highlight or Underline One (I think this is.) Really Really Bad For Good for Society Society Potential Advantages Potential Disadvantages 1. It is highly effective 1. it messes up your menstruation cycle for a while
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
2. It decreases the risk of developing ovarian cancer.

Cost: The pill can cost from $10 to $80.
2. It can make you emotionally unstable. 3.
Do You Need a Prescription?: You need a prescription if you are under 18.
3. Appropriate for woman of 35 year and older.
Mechanism of action-how it works:
Does this promote people not taking accountability for their choices or provide an alternative to someone not wanting to get pregnant?
I think yes, because they think that they can have unprotected sex because afterwards they will get Plan B but you can still get the STDs.
Topic 3: The Condom Availability Debate

Potential Sources
Basic Overview: The Condom availability debate states that condoms should be passed around in schools to prevent unwanted pregnancies and from sexually transmitted diseases.
Provide one stat on teen pregnancy. About 750,000 teenagers get pregnant each year. Cite: http://www.dosomething.org/tipsandtoo ls/11-facts-about-teen-pregnancy
Provide one stat on teen pregnancy. A sexually active teen who does not use Plan b has a 90% chance of getting pregnant. Cite: http://www.dosomething.org/tipsandto ols/11-facts-about-teen-pregnancy In your opinion do these statistics warrant public educations involvement?
My Level of Agreement: Highlight or Underline One (I think this is.) Really Really Bad For Good for Society Society Potential Advantages Potential Disadvantages 1. May prevent pregnancy 1. condoms in schools can encourage sex
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
2. Can prevent from STDs 3. More males are using condoms each year when they are sexually active.
2. it can effect some religions 3. the cost can be really high
What does a schools condom availability program look like? Who gets condoms, where, when and how?
So the big question is how would condom availability affect the student body? Does it promote unhealthy behavior or are you providing a healthy outlet for those that will do it anywaysif so is it even a schools place to get involved ? I think encourages
teenagers to become more sexually active.
Topic 4: The Safe Haven Law

2. parents do not get in trouble by government for leaving their babies behind
What happens to parental rights?
2. the parents don know what happens to the baby 3.
3. Gives unwanted babies a chance to live
What is Illinois Law exactly? The Illinois law states that it protects parents from facing any civil ir criminal liberty for giving up their newborn.
Does this promote people not taking accountability for their choices or provide an alternative to someone not able to provide for a child?
I think it does because some people might think that it is okay if they get pregnant because they just have the baby and just give it to safe haven aferwards
