Guinea Pigs

I've already been given the vaccine (soon to be receiving my 3rd and final shot) and I didn't know much about it when my doctor informed me of it last year. I was just going in for a routine check-up and to start my "college shots" up so I'd have them out of the way. As far as I know, the particular strains of HPV it is supposed to help prevent, will soon be replaced my new strains I guess technically my generation is the guinea pig for this vaccine and who knows what will happen to "us" after we've been introduced to it. I heard a few states were going to try and force parents into making their children get the vaccine. I'm not that worried about the vaccine itself though. I just see it as another form of protecting myself from any other disease: measles, mumps, chicken pox etc.
