The enemy of my enemy is not my friend but I opposed the mandatory use of this vaccine. And I never heard why only the girls were getting it when guys get cancer from HPV too.
Also there will be women in this world who would not have the HPV vaccination and the guys would still be carriers.
I thought at the time that it had to be so that this vaccination could be tabled as a “women’s issue”.
I asked the same question (why boys don’t get it) and the only info I could find said just that it had not been tested on boys. Interestingly, boys CAN get cancer from HPV as well, altho it’s not as common. One would think that if something really worked, and the goal was to get rid of the disease they would have targeted both boys and girls and tested the drug for both.
