Basically, every person who is sexually active should be tested and take safer sex precautions to prevent the acquiring the disease. Or don't, as it is already endemic and the vaccine only covers certain strains. |
understood, but from what i can tell, the likelihood is far far greater that this is passed to men from women...since the vaccine has long been proposed for women, but never once considered for men untill this finding.
also, it is so because here, the notation is off the transmission which may cause an infection and tumor growth in the male mouth/neck/head area, facilitated by female genital/male oral contact.
