   I am glad that a link has been found between nasopharyngeal cancer and HPV. Does this mean that the Gardasil vaccination will also help prevent oral cancer, as well as preventing cervical cancer caused by HPV?

   What exciting times we live in, to actually be able to protect our children against cancer by vaccinating them.

   Yes Jenny. There is a study taking place as we speak on a vaccine for girls and boys to prevent OC through HPV.
