Re: [UUPoly-L] CPN February Special Event
among my other concerns about gardasil is that it's only proven to work for about five years (maybe six), and last i heard, they were unsure if they could administer booster shots. i just want more testing to happen before i seriously think about getting it. i have no wish to be a guinea pig. HRT was supposed to be a good deal, too, until they found links to cervical cancer.
also, i worry about anything that makes people think they can afford to be casual about using condoms. HPV can be prevented by using condoms, just as can almost all the other STIs. vaccines for only some of them could lead some people to believe they don't need to be as careful. and don't tell me people aren't that stupid. the existence of AIDS cocktails and suppressants led some people to think that having or contracting AIDS wasn't such a big deal.
