A new vaccine has been developed which is proven to destroy the main virus which causes cervical cancer. The vaccine will likely be given to boys and girls at puberty, and is shown to be 100% effective in killing the four papillomavirus types responsible for the vast majority of cervical cancers! The disease kills roughly around 500,000 women a year worldwide. Within the next two generations it is likely to be as rare as smallpox.

A thing of the past if Pharmaceutical companies don’t patent it and mark up the price to ridiculous proportions so that only those with drug benefits in 1st world countries can afford it.
Social conservatives are attempting to block the vaccine, proclaiming that it will encourage promiscuity.
Social conservatives need to relax.
Wait – dude…why is the vaccine given to boys too?
