Bishop Fred Henry, Calgary's Roman Catholic bishop and the moral and spiritual advisor for the Calgary Catholic School Board, reasoned that offering the vaccine for HPV ­-- a very common sexually transmitted infection that has been linked to cervical cancer-- could be seen as condoning pre-marital sex. Henry argued that it was inappropriate for Catholic schools to offer a vaccine that could be interpreted as promoting promiscuous behaviour.

He didn't do this to be righteous, he did it out of common sense to keep them from dying. This common sense, says Saramago, is what the world is lacking in a time where we are quite literally blinded from each other.
