		jghn 34 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: HPV vaccination reduces oncogenic HPV16/18 prevale... My PCP actually recommended holding off until later in the 50s for this reason. There's not currently a booster so his suggestion was to play the odds & delay a bit in order to get longer protection in my elderly years.

You are betting:

(1) a booster won't be invented in next say 20 years and

(2) you will live next 20 years (likely if you are healthy and have a healthy lifestyle)
