For the ladies...
This is gonna look very Australia specific, because it's only a relatively recent development (here), and has only really just reached OUR media...I thought you'd all wanna have a look, 'cos something this huge for you is gonna go international, it's only a matter of time.
http://www.heraldsun.news.com.au/com...E24331,00.html It's only a preventative thus far, but this is very promising in terms of future CURE development too. Thought you'd all like to know all the same, hope you had a good read. - B. Last edited by ChEEbA; 06-08-2005 at 09:39 AM.

It's a very big thing. There's women all over the world who have lost their lives to this disease. It's nice to know someone has been successful in creating a vaccine.

Thanks Cheeba. That's great news.
I actually had a cervical cancer scare last year. My doctor found what he thought were pre-cancerous cells, and I had to under-go a few tests. Luckily everything turned out fine, but I was really scared. It's really good to know that millions of women will be saved from having to go through all of that :) Very exciting stuff.

This is great. My aunt AND my grandmother both had cervical cancer, luckily they found it early and were able to get past it. And I know this puts me a greater risk of getting it also....s'why I get my lil tests done at the same time every year.
But I wonder about this.... Quote:

At any rate it makes me happy to see that the world IS actually advancing in curing/preventing these kind of things

They'll perfect it, Marroe...I hope.
Otherwise, this is the greatest piece of news I've heard all day.

However, just b/c you're sexually active doesn't mean that you have HPV. I guess they're just helping to protect the population of girls who haven't been exposed to it yet...so that they don't get it :) Hopefully it will eventually be available to all women though :)
