Doctors have had trouble persuading parents to vaccinate their teen girls against cervical cancer. Presidential hopeful Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., made the struggle that much tougher earlier this week when she called the two HPV vaccines "dangerous."

.

In interviews Tuesday, Bachmann recounted her conversation with a mother who said her daughter became mentally retarded after the injections to protect her against human papillomavirus, a sexually spread virus that can cause cervical cancer. It is the most common sexually transmitted infection.

.

Although no evidence exists to support her critique -- both the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend vaccination -- Bachmann's statement may have an impact, doctors say.

.

"When people are resistant to vaccines to begin with, when a celebrity validates that, they listen. . . . This will be a step backward," said Dr. Richard Feldman, director of the Family Medicine Residency Program at Franciscan St. Francis Health.

.

About 37 percent of Indiana girls 13 to 17 received at least one of the three doses of the vaccine in 2010, said Dr. Gregory Zimet, a professor of pediatrics at the Indiana University School of Medicine. That's much lower than the national rate of 48.7 percent.

"This in my opinion is one of the safest vaccines that we have," Feldman said.

.

Side effects include fainting, mild fever and a sore arm, experts say. But the Internet abounds with accounts of girls who fell ill after the shots
