This is great. My aunt AND my grandmother both had cervical cancer, luckily they found it early and were able to get past it. And I know this puts me a greater risk of getting it also....s'why I get my lil tests done at the same time every year.
But I wonder about this....

It will be given to girls before they are sexually active to give lifelong immunity to the human papilloma virus that causes cervical cancer. It will effectively obliterate one of the biggest cancer killers of women.

I wonder why they can't give the vaccine to every woman?
At any rate it makes me happy to see that the world IS actually advancing in curing/preventing these kind of things
