Re: Cervical Cancer Vaccine
From what I've read and was told by my physician - the vaccine will be for girls (I think it will be given beginning at age 11 or 12) who haven't been sexually active yet. I'm not sure if there's one for women who are sexually active.
Here's a link to an FDA release on one of the vaccines.

Re: Cervical Cancer Vaccine
I haven't read up on all of it but from what I know now, if I had a daughter, she'd be having the vaccine.

Re: Cervical Cancer Vaccine
I have not heard of the shot being available, but I do get the HPV test along with my bi-annual Pap (I am in high risk w/ family history, so I go 2x a year).
