    I think you can get the jab without a cervix too.

    you'll need a generation of men who give oral to be in power before that, as you can get throat cancer from it as well.

    This was the vaccine where I broke contact with a long term "friend" who said: "I will never give my daughter this, because something something unsafe". This was a physical therapist who I had let treat my broken back many times and I was kind of shocked they turned out this anti-science and ignorant. Later found out they went further into the crankland, all the way to the covid vaccine conspiracy bs and beyond.

    Either way, this vaccine is great. I wish it would have been around when I was young, I got HPV from a SA and have to have regular screenings to be safe.

    I would imagine so given the cancers are associated with the same things with cervical cancer. Not 100% of course but a broad spectrum of the most common ones associated with cancer.
