Is the cervical cancer vaccination really worth it?

No: Lesion of cervix at one time defined at late stage with invasion of surrounding structures. After Pap introduced there was a reduction in more aggressive lesions and improvement in survival. Lesion more recently defined as a result of Human Papilloma Virus. A vaccine Gardasil has not been found that effective and produces many complication such as ascending paralysis of spine and sterility.
