VACCINES IN THE WAR AGAINST CANCER

Vaccines proving yet again how important they are in keeping us all alive and healthy.  Boys should be routinely vaccinated against HPV (human papillomavirus ) at age 11-12.  Why?  To protect them against cancer and to protect their future sexual partners.  If we're ever going to win the war against cancer prevention is key.  This is a great step forward.  I encourage every parent to get their children, boys and girls, vaccinated against HPV.
