Another reason to consider the benefit of a vaccination?
Who is to say that now the virus won't mutate making this vaccine pointless in 20 or so years..
The people who die between now and then.
Also this is only one form of cancer and it doesn't prevent all forms of it as well.
Hells bells, this is one of the stupidest comments I've read in a while. In essence what you are saying is that since the vaccine doesn't prevent all types of cancer, it is useless? I hope not. Vaccines do nothing more than trigger a response by the body to kill a specific virus. Unfortunately, cancers are the result of multiple mechanisms, most of which have nothing to do with viruses.
To think that since a vaccine which might reduce a specific cancer is not a cure all for cancers somehow makes that vaccine less valuable is unintelligent at best.
How many women will no longer get pelvic exams because they think they are safe?
The stupid ones.
If the vaccine manufacturer, or any associated information, advertising, or advice, in any way shape or form infers that women should reduce their health screenings or checkups please post such information.
Also I didn't mean all types of cancer I meant all forms of cervical cancer. They call it a cancer vaccine which is very misleading. It is like calling an EBV vaccine (which doesn't exists) a lymphoma vaccine.
“The stupid ones”
It always comes back to the stupid ones.
How anyone can think this vaccine protects them from all cancers or all STDs, amazes me. How anyone can think this vaccine gives an “ok” to engage in premarital sex, amazes me. Or how anyone can think this vaccine will increase pre-marital or teen sex, amazes me.
I thought long and hard (cliche)about this vaccine. About having my two teens get it...the two younger ones haven’t yet...what sold me was boys carrying the virus, and their doctor, a friend, recommending it.
It’s not going to make my kids go out and have sex. If they’re gonna have sex before marriage, they’re gonna have it regardless of this vaccine. Teens were having sex way before this vaccine, lol.
