Hi, my gynae had given me a prescription to get the Gardasil Vaccine, because my boyfriend was diagnosed with genital warts and after my smear I was clean from any virus, so my doctor prescribed me with this vaccine to keep me protected from the HPV disease. After reading all these stories about this vaccine, I don't think im gonna go for it. It is sad to read that all these young lives have been destroyed due to this vaccine. I am from South Africa & this vaccine is new here. A lot of people are uneducated about HPV & Gardasil. I have only heard of HPV now. I am 22 and I'm glad to have stumbled upon a website like this. There is a desperate need for awareness. So is there any other way I can protect myself besides using the vaccine? I'm scared my boyfriend passes the virus onto me and what could he do?
