"This shot can keep me from getting some kinds of cancer."

"Now I won't need to worry about having Pap smears."

"I will need a booster shot every 10 years."

Answer and Explanation

Correct Answer : A,C,E

A. "My boyfriend should get this shot too.": The HPV vaccine is recommended for all adolescents, including males and females, typically starting at ages 11–12. Vaccinating boys helps prevent the spread of HPV and also protects them from genital warts and certain cancers.

B. "This shot will keep me from getting herpes.": The HPV vaccine does not protect against herpes simplex virus (HSV), which is a different sexually transmitted infection. This reflects a misunderstanding of what the vaccine prevents.

C. "I need to come back in 2 months for another shot.": For adolescents starting the HPV vaccine at age 15 or older, three doses are required. The second dose is given 1–2 months after the first. This statement reflects accurate understanding of the dosing schedule.

D. "I need to have a blood test when I'm an adult to see if I'm still immune.": No routine blood test is used to check immunity to HPV. Immunity is assumed after completing the vaccine series.

E. "This shot can keep me from getting some kinds of cancer.": The HPV vaccine protects against strains of the virus that are linked to cervical, vaginal, vulvar, anal, penile, and oropharyngeal cancers.

F. "Now I won't need to worry about having Pap smears.": Pap smears are still required for cervical cancer screening even after HPV vaccination. The vaccine doesn't protect against all cancer-causing strains.

G. "I will need a booster shot every 10 years.": Current guidelines do not recommend booster doses of the HPV vaccine after completing the initial series.
