Cure for Cervical Cancer

For years I have wondered why the pharmaceutical companies have not provided cures for viruses since the Polio vaccine. Well, just this month, Merck's Gardisil is a cure for the HPV virus which is believed to cause most cervical cancer cases. This is a major medical breakthrough which appears to be getting very little coverage. So here are a few articles mentioning the significance of this medical news. "HPV Vaccine Could Save Future Generations, Too", "Federal advisers back cervical cancer vaccine". Things that make you go hmmm.
