[edit] Merge?

I think Ceravarix deserves its own article. Just the section "Social issues" should be merged into HPV vaccine. —Remember the dot (t) 18:40, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

Since no one has replied, I went ahead and merged the "Social issues" section into HPV vaccine#Controversy and removed the proposed merge tag. —Remember the dot (t) 04:40, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cancer Vaccine Indication: not just for young women

I think it is incorrect to say: "This means that a woman who is already infected with HPV will not benefit from this treatment."

I think this is too generic, as there is more than one strain of HPV. If a woman is infected with one strain of HPV, she may still benefit from the vaccination, as it may protect against the strains she is not infected with.

Also, the vaccines do help women who are already infected get rid of the infection. It is right and proper that the phrase be removed. Darkfrog24 21:35, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
