Furthermore, while the vaccine might carry a hefty price tag today, I suspect we will see significant cost reductions down the road. Once production scales up massively or the patents eventually expire, generic versions will hit the market, finally unburdened by those massive research and development overheads.

In my view, attempting partial vaccination is nothing short of foolishness; if we truly want to eradicate these specific strains of HPV, we ought to be vaccinating everyone—both men and women—to ensure they are wiped out entirely.

Rachel Brooks63 said:it isn't a stupid question; from what I understand, they're only going to give it to women. Don't ask me why—as far as I can tell, it's because only women develop any serious illness from HPV, whereas men just carry it around... 😁

and perhaps there is some other reason, though I am personally unaware of it.

That is pure foolishness. Both men and women can suffer from genital warts due to HPV, which is hardly a pleasant situation, especially considering they often have to be removed via surgical excision or acid treatments.
