Uh, that wasn't the main point. The main point is the false advertising of this vaccine.

Any vaccine only covers select strains. This vaccine is no different. They include the most prevalent strains at the time. Considering many women contract HPV from their spouse, don't even know they contracted it, and the husband didn't even know he had it in the first place, I think the vaccine is a good idea. It's not a license to have promiscuous sex. It's just a good idea. And given the reality of our situation, I think it is a step in the right direction. I certainly don't want it forced on anyone, though.

I haven't heard any false advertising. There's a lot of hysteria in this article that appears to be complaining that it doesn't prevent every form of STD or every type of cancer. It hasn't claimed to. The vaccine has been touted to prevent one particular type of STD that causes cervical cancer. No more, no less.
