This took 30 years to come to light. 7.Is it respoinsible behaviour to trust a vaccine that's only been around a couple of years? And yes, my kids had the MMR, but I did the research and weighed up the risks. Your OP proposes just wading on in there like there's noithing to lose. 8. How do you know that?

1. No.
2. No one knows.
3. Yes, as far as HPV is concerned it has been studied for years, it is the cause of most cervical cancer.
4. Yes, as far as the clinical trials have shown. I do believe it has been used overseas, like most of our drugs, much longer than in the US.
5. Longer than up to now? Who knows, but how is that different from any other drug? Are you going to not take the newest medications because they haven't been fully tested? How about if you or a family memeber gets a life threatening illness? are you going to say wait, it has not been around for 25 years, don't give me that. When will you trust the science.
6. That connection remains HIGHLY controversial at best.
7. See number 5.
8. No, what I said is look at what you would want for you or your kids future, make the best choice for you, I and people I work with say get it. I got it for my girls.

Ever see anyone with bad warts or cervical cancer, it ain't pretty. JMHO, oh, and some really good science.
