Cervical cancer can kill you just as dead even if you wait until marriage to have sex

Sure. But, really, the risk seems fairly low if one is good about getting pap smears.

About 3,870 women will die from cervical cancer in the United States during 2008. Cervical cancer was once one of the most common causes of cancer death for American women. The cervical cancer death rate declined by 74% between 1955 and 1992. The main reason for this change is the increased use of the Pap test.

The main reason for this change is the increased use of the Pap test.

and that is another concern in regard to this vaccine --- a false sense of protection. The vaccine does not protect against all strains of HPV that have a causal link to cervical cancer. The concern is more women will fore go having pap smears, possibly resulting in increased numbers of cervical cancers.

Ummm, so your answer to not getting vaccinate is that the cancer probably won’t kill you if you catch it early enough?
