A member asked:
If kids have the hpv vaccine are they more likely to be sexually active?

HPV: A vaccine does not make a person more sexually active...This is a common argument against these shots and just makes no sense.

No.: How kids react to the hpv vaccine depends in part how you promote it. If a parent treats this like just another vaccine that they get, there will be no change in behaviour. The hpv vaccine has the ability to really help millions of people both men and women. It is encouraged that all kids get vaccinated.
