HPV vaccine Link
OK, way too much data online for me to have a solid idea of the issues involved. Opinions on HPV vaccine for adults? From a quick sweep it seems like a good idea. Anyone more up on this?
HPV: The vaccine protects against Human Papilloma virus, which can cause genital warts, cervical, anal, vaginal & vulvar cancers.As I understand it, the vaccine is primarily effective for those who are sexually INACTIVE, or not already exposed to the virus. I think that's why the target is 26 years & younger. If you already have the disease, the vaccine doesn't do much.
The shot is recommended for young adult females and males up to age 26. Anyone older than 26 who has not received the vaccination should speak their doctor or MinuteClinic practitioner about getting it now.
