Medicine should be between you and you doctor. The only exception is communicably diseases which are a danger to the public. I don’t want the government telling me or mine what care we can, can’t or must have. Maybe you want Obama/Romney care, but I don’t.

“Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers that affect a woman’s reproductive organs. Various strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection, play a role in causing most cases of cervical cancer.

When exposed to HPV, a woman’s immune system typically prevents the virus from doing harm. In a small group of women, however, the virus survives for years before it eventually converts some cells on the surface of the cervix into cancer cells. Cervical cancer occurs most often in women over age 30.”

The widespread prevalence of the virus in the community is exactly why it is a public health concern. Vaccine programs can eradicate the virus and make it extinct within a geographic region. If the virus stays in the community, it spreads like wildfire through the entire community.

As far as the "communicable disaease" aspect of a sexually transmitted virus is concerned, a virgin bride on her wedding night will not only sleep with her new husband. She will also sleep with all the women her husband ever slept with and all the men that they ever slept with and all the women that they ever slept with and all the men that they ever slept with and on and on and on ....

As many as 60% of men ages 18 to 70 are infected with HPV

Is HPV a communicable disease that affects the entire community and affects even the purest, monogamous daughter of the strictest father?
