But Jerry there is a huge burden, both financial and mental a male or female for that matter, carries with genital warts and a problem that is becoming all the more presence is RRP (Recurrent Respiratory Papilloma) in infants born to mothers that carry the HPV and as Brian so aptly put it "men are the reservoirs for the HPV virus."

And to a group, MSM, anal and penile cancers are their battle flag. I predict we may see this committee endorse the vaccine for MSM as soon as next Feb leaving heterosexual men to fend for themselves.

Bottom line is with a current 17% HPV vaccination rate amoung females and the gov't not pushing the vaccine on males, coupled with a 80% infection rate, we will never see the end to HPV.
