I read up on HPV about 5 years ago and yes, it is everywhere. A good percentage of men carry it. Won't really do any thing to the male gender, but the females risks can be deadly.

thank god for the hpv vaccine now. Is it just me or is this sort of a newish thing? I never hear of it until maybe a few years ago. But, I guess it's been 8years since I've been in high school sex ed.
I don't know why every woman doesn't run out in get the vaccine. I'll take my changes. So many guys have HPV and never know it. They hardly even test guys unless you specifically asked for it up until very recently.
If girls get it -- the changes of getting cervical cancer goes way the hellup.

What I want to know is why this seems like such a new std and suddenly they have a vaccine for it, just like that.
strange?
- good point. It's been around for a while, right?Point5
- the virus that is.Point5
- It's not new it's been around for along time. I think it's only recently last decade or so that they figured out how bad it isJKilla77
- I don't know about you but they did not teach me about this in school. I'm pretty sure I didn't totally sleep through class that day in science class. I graduated 8 years ago.shellie
- HPV = Genital warts. It's not new but I think they believed it to be like any wart you get any where but it's not.JKilla77
- why? because pharmaceuticals only recently became big business.horton

Most men don't actually get affect by the disease, it's only a small percent. They sure can spread it though.

Wow... this is a very scary and legit sounding percentage on the FDA.gov site.
"At least 50% of people who have had sex will have HPV at some time in their lives."

I also remember hearing about a girl who became paralyzed two days after taking this vaccine.
I've also heard that women over a certain age can't take the injection they have to use a pill form, but I could be wrong about that.

Does the vaccine work on trannys?
- Depends if the cross gender individual in question was born male then no probably not.JKilla77

This is marketing (fear mongering?) pure and simple.
HPV was a non-issue until they released a vaccine for it (a very expensive vaccine at that, something like $300 a go). but now that they have a vaccine, HPV is a menace. 50% will die of cervical cancer unless you buy the vaccine... or the terrorists win.
even sadder is the push to have this vaccine as mandatory for young girls and boys. There's going to be a whole generation of guinea pigs to find out how safe it really is.
