you ready for your vaccines today I'm
sorry but I do have some questions about
the HPV vaccine how do we know it's safe
I mean I remember hearing all the
stories about when it first started
coming out the vaccine is very safe I
know when a vaccine comes out people get
nervous but the HB vaccine is far from
knew and it underwent extensive testing
before it was recommended since the
vaccine became available we have more
than 15 years of real world data showing
that the vaccine does not cause any
long-term health problems by now a whole
generation has received and benefited
from HPV vaccination oh I didn't realize
it was around for that long but how do
we know it won't cause serious long-term
issues for her I assure you there's no
evidence of any serious health problems
after AG PV vaccination more than 158
million doses of HPV vaccines have been
distributed since they were licensed in
the US and the long-term data continue
to show HPV vaccines are safe and
effective here in our Clinic we
vaccinate hundreds of kids every year
and I've never seen anything that made
me concerned at all I've been vaccinated
myself and I wouldn't recommend anything
to my patients that I wouldn't do myself
or for my own my own kids thank you that
does ease my worries but oh wait did you
say you've been vaccinated yourself yeah
I was vaccinated years ago because the
vaccine has been around that long my son
and daughter are now 5 and seven but as
soon as they're the right age we're
going to start the series
