Dear All,

Its true that now a days we are very much focussing on HIV/AIDS but this tree men is an absolute example of RTI/STI.infection that is HPV.In todays world we have to sensitize yound generation about RTI/STIs.From varoious rearch it is found that those person who have RTI/STIs will have twice or thrice time chances of suffering of HIV/AIDS if engaged in risky sex or sex with more then one partener.Therefore in order to prevent AIDS it is very important for knowledge,awarness and early diagnosis and treatment of RTI/STIs otherwise may be in the future the situation wouls become more common as metioned above.(Tree man).

Thanks

This village of infected people is not a virus!!! Its a government test of germ warfare. Think about it……..an isolated village is a perfect place to test.

Even though it only protects against 4 strains, it is the more common ones. Even so, don't you want to reduce your chances?

Personal story to convince you all…

I had stage 1 cervical precancer, and when I got tested, I tested negative for HPV (to find out later other women in my family have cervical cancer, so there you go now).

I'll just say that the treatment for cervical cancer, which happens to 70% of those who get HPV, is horrible. I had two biopsies of my cervix, which were dont without anasthesia, and was the worst pain I've ever felt in my life.

That good enough reason for all of ya to go get some Gardisil?

And btw, that picture totally freaked me out. I feel so bad for him.

I was actually just 'diagnosed' with HPV this week. Since being told I had it, I've done tons of research–through conversations with my doctor and the (gasp) internet. Turns out that 80% of sexually active people get hpv. And Guardisil only 'guards' against 4 out of 100 strands. Reports are in that even if you do spit out the cash for the vaccine, it's very unlikely that you still WON'T get hpv eventually in your lifetime. Why is everyone calling it an std? You can get it through kissing, according to recent studies. To me, it's starting to seem a lot less like an std and a lot more like a cold that people should know about because it can develop into something much more serious.

Great article, I absolutely agree with your point of view of not taking chances. But there have also been some reported issues with Gardisil, the HPV vaccine which has been so heavily marketed to teens. The CDC and drug manufacturer say its safe- but there have been reports of paralysis and death. I'm on the fence about it.

Poor tree man. =(
