Between the commercials & decades of preventative measures available to people as young as teenagers, why isn’t general causation info more transparent?
In: 103
What I do know is the decision to vaccinate boys came from the dramatic drop in cervical cancers in young women Scotland in the first 10 years after the vaccination campaign started. The number to treat to prevent one case of cancer was ridiculously hard to calculate until they had live data.
While many people worry about the self swabbing cervical screening we are going to be rolling out in NZ next year, I see it as a sign of good progress AND expect to see reduced frequency of PAP smears in younger people with known vaccine history
(And yes I dragged my step kid to get the course of shots completed when I realized she had been allowed to get out of them because she was “scared of needles”)
