Vaccine is useful, but not very affective. Many users on a HPV daitng site stdpal.com said they have take the vaccine, but they also infected by HPV later.

Other news sources are starting to report report serious side effects from taking the vaccine, including chronic migraine headaches that require hospital visits for treatment. While the risk of side effects is probably minimal, they can nonetheless be serious. In the case of Guardisil, the vaccine is probably not worth the risks, especially since regular pap smears should be able to detect any cancer caused by HPV. You can read a much better and more informative story about side effects at the following link:

Not one of Dr. Healey's better articles, I'm sorry to say.

Prevention is the best course of action but I fear this vaccine may have unintended results. How many young women will forgoe safer sex practices such as condoms and abstinance because they have the false security of Gardasil? And, after a short 6 month study, the high incidence of drug reactions is extremely unsettling. Are we playing russian roulette with our young women?

Funny that Dr. Healy is so "on board" wit this vaccine, which targets women's health, and yet still casts doubts over the childhood vaccination schedule. I don't think that people in the public eye who speak out against routine childhood vaccinations realize that people listen to them, don't immunize, and then we end up with outbreaks of preventable diseases.

The vaccine by Marck is a marketers dream "scary worts and cancer cured by our drug".....Exept the drug was fast tracked by the FDA...6 month study, thousands of adverse reactions have been reported including death in at least 17 girls. do your home work people....the author is on the drug makers and advertisers side ...NOT YOURS!
