Studies show that funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) contributed to 354 of 356 drugs (99.4%) approved by the FDA from 2010 to 2019. Recklessly slashing NIH funding will mean that patients will be waiting much longer for life-saving treatments.

I have had patients have HPV disease such that it required surgical management who had only ever had one partner. About 80% of us have HPV at some point in our lifetimes. The HPV vaccine is highly effective at preventing infection from the types of HPV most likely to cause cancer
A common misunderstanding is that HPV is only a problem for people who are “sexually promiscuous.”

The truth: you can get HPV even if you’ve only had ONE partner. Its prevalence in adult populations is very high.

So we vax everyone.
