Was wondering if there is now, or will be in the near future be a mandatory vaccination for girls in the united states of america that are enrolled in public schools. The one to prevent cancer of the unterus or ovaries. If this vaccine were to be made mandatory do you think it's fair? Should it be a choice instead?

Its NOT mandatory BUT it is highly recommended that we take the vaccination. My Grandma works for a Heath Department and i have to go get mine pretty soon.

There is nothing mandatory right now. There is no vaccine to prevent cancer of the uterus or ovaries. You are probably thinking of Gardasil, which protects against certain cervical cancers. It's a choice to be vaccinated. If one is high-risk, then by all means, have the vaccine. Women who aren't in a monogamous relationship are more at risk than those who are. HPV is a sexually transmitted disease that can lead to cervical cancer. Keep in mind, this doesn't protect from ALL forms of cervical cancer.
