Between the commercials & decades of preventative measures available to people as young as teenagers, why isn’t general causation info more transparent?

One really shitty thing about HPV, is that all these years later since the virus started attention, there still isn’t any way to test if a male is carrying the virus. Doctors can only test for it in women. So if you’re a guy, you could be carrying it for years and years and not have a clue.
