I agree Irma. There has not been a long term study of the vaccine and I have a problem with using woman as lab rats and not addressing the male aspect of the communication of the disease.

Ever heard of "you did not do this now did you"?(smile) Married men and women get this form of cancer and it is more the number of different s*x partners and not the amount of s*x one has.No nothing to do with catching a desease.

But, my big problem is with why no stress on the side affects of taking this drug? This is one of those cures that can kill you, but most things that we do not KNOW or ACCEPT the truth, facts, scientific study that we do not like, want ,the better it is to condemn others and be happy with these condemnations...

Now lets go back to that rational of married people not having s*x???? Men not having outside of the marriage s*x expecially with those YOUNG things, huh???? Not very good now is it when one looks at ll sides of this issue????....Me, I would never allow my daughter to become a lab rat because with all of those serious and deadly side affects this drug should not be on the market yet.
