Hi Brian,
It is my understanding that the vaccine is still in the testing stages for males and also for females over the age of 26. I know that in my office the vaccine is not yet offered to males at all- though I can tell you that when it is my boys will be getting it!
Of course, since the vaccine is considered relatively "new" to the public, we still meet with some resistance from parents who feel that we over-vaccinate our children. If I could only direct all of those people to this site.....
I did speak with our offfice rep from Merck who was familiar with the link to oral cancer, and she was hopeful that the vaccine would be available to males soon. Looking foward to all the new info you can give us.
