This isn't even really new information. I wrote a paper in college about HPV vaccines being used to prevent cervical cancer, and that was about 18 years ago now. And the data I wrote my paper on wasn't even that new at the time, either.

Though, it's always good to see more long-term studies like this. It just backs up what we've known for ages now: Vaccines work.

I would argue that it actually causes cancer, in the state of California.

Wrote a paper in college on cervical cancer, turned into a paper on vacines when I found out every cervical cancer biopsy ever taken has shown signs of HPV infection.

Isn't that the point?

Step 1: get the vaccine

Step 2: move to Scotland

[–] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 5 points 9 months ago

It has to be the other way around. The good vaccines are Scottish.

Maybe somebody will lend us one?

Just women in Scotland. Don’t extrapolate your results too far!

Those poor Scotsmen might still get cervical cancer on the regular.
