Well now, doctors are recommending that men get the vaccination too. The new vaccine was just approved by the Food and Drug Administration in June, and will begin to be in circulation fairly soon for women, with recommendations being that men eventually routinely get the vaccination as well as an extra precaution.

The new vaccine protects against four types of the virus, which is most commonly known to cause human genital warts in its victims. It has only been approved for use on girls and women aged 9-26 so far, but will be recommended to go to men as well in the near future if all goes well.

The whole problem is that men can pass the virus on to their sexual partners, just spreading the risk to their female partners even more, but some groups are protesting the idea of making it a required vaccination, because of the sexual nature of the spread of the virus. Of course, these are probably conservative groups who are afraid that the vaccination is a license to sleep around.

Do they forget, there are a million other diseases people still need to be wary of when picking the caliber and quantity of sexual partners, or are they that dead set against protecting people - namely women from a potentially deadly virus? Especially such a prevalent virus which is estimated to infect (in different forms) about half of the sexually active adults in the US right now. Yeah, half! And some say that is even a conservative estimate…
