Yes, but no, but yes.....

Difficult to understand the reasoning behind a Catholic school in Manchester's decision not to allow its girl pupils to be vaccinated against the virus which can cause cervical cancer on the school premises. They can, of course, simply go down to their GP and be vaccinated there. The danger is that many of them perhaps won't bother, and therefore put themselves more at risk of the disease. If the school, as it insists, has no moral objection to the vaccine, then why not allow it to be given on the school premises where clearly the take-up is likely to be greatly increased. Smacks of Pontius Pilate washing his hands, doesn't it?
