Penile cancer? How obscure. I've never heard of it.
And someone else was claiming that it was dangerous to get the vaccine if you were infected by HPV. Since boys are the ones who have the virus in the first place, would that not be dangerous?
I said that. It comes from the CDC, or FDA, I forget which.
And boys aren't the only ones who spread it, but they do spread it.
You also just said you'd never heard of HPV until recently...so isn't that obscure enough so this vaccine shouldn't be mandatory in the first place?
Tell people who have gotten penile cancer from HPV that they shouldn't have the same protection girls have because well, you haven't heard of penile cancer until now.
Your lack of medical knowledge, Newbie status, and utter lack of understanding of informed consent, etc.
suggest you work for Merck or Perry in Texas or have other
connection to this. Which is it?
According to medical websites, the overall incidence of cancer of the
penis in the U.S. is about 1/100,000 men per year
