Adverse effects of Gardasil are running about half of what is expected in a new vaccine. The negatives get press coverage; the positives go on with their lives. All vaccines, like all medicines have side-effects.

Three-quarters of cervical cancers are caused by HPV (four specific strains). More than half of us have those in our bodies by the age of fifty. You are risking a very low incidence of side-effects in the short term against a much higher incidence of serious illness thirty years from now if you do not get vaccinated. I recommend Gardasil. Several European countries require it.
