I would cut off my right arm before either of my daughters got this vaccine.

My Goddaughter is 20. She said no too.

It prevents only a small percent of the virus’ linked to cervical cancer. It does not prevent the cancer. They are marketing it wrong.

"Because cervical cancer runs in her family, "We thought what we were doing was protecting Gabi," Schrag said. "We didn't want to give cancer the opportunity to invade her body in any way."

Obviously Gabi's mother was misinformed as well. It doesn't not protect against those kind of cancers at all, just the ones (supposedly) that result from repeated infections from papilloma virus, which can only result from sex with multiple infected partners- a promiscuous lifestyle to put it politely.

And even then depending on ethnicity, it offers even less protection because some strains are more prevalent among certain ethnicities that Gardasil has no effect whatsoever on.

Abstinence, or a least a monogamous relationship with trusted partners and yearly pap smears are the best ways to prevent cervical cancers caused by repeated papilloma virus exposure, as well as other cancers.
