What about the scores of other diseases you can get from being sexually active? I was forced to get the Hep B vaccine back in 7th grade yet I don't go shooting up drugs because now I am safe. This vaccine will do the same thing. Also cervical cancer is on the rare side, on par with the total amount of sarcomas diagnosed every year.

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.

This issue is not about being or encouraging sexual activity. This is about the potential ability to prevent the development of a form of cancer by triggering the bodies immune system to hammer a virus which may contribute to the development of the cancer.

Seperate the sex from the medicine. I don't understand why people are connecting them on this issue. Does the flu shot make kids more apt to kiss during flu season, and then progress to other things?

Where is the line? Pick any vaccination - they are mostly for communicable diseases the spread of which is facilitated by close proximity and exchange of one bodily fluid or another. Why not rail against the flu vaccine, or measels, or whatever? If everyone was too scared of getting measels to get busy...
