A Vaccine for Boys to Help Girls?
« on: February 26, 2008, 01:56:32 AM »
Cervical cancer vaccine is approved for use in girls and women, ages 9 to 26, to protect them against the human papillomavirus, or H.P.V., which causes cervical cancer. But why we should give it to the boys???

As its' shown in the study:
The primary reason to extend approval to boys would be to prevent them from transmitting the virus to girls, thereby slowing the rates of cervical cancer. The concept is called “herd immunity.”
