Summary

In the United States, over 14 million people are getting infected with HPV every year. HPV, Human Papillomavirus, is a common sexually transmitted disease among women and men. This research project will go in-depth about the safety and severe side effects of the vaccine, although it only happens very rarely, and the frequency in which it occurs. This research will also cover different medical treatments to treat HPV.

Personal Statement

Since the incident that happened in Japan, when teenage girls were becoming disabled with the HPV vaccine, a vaccine still used now, I was always curious to know if the vaccine had actually caused the dysfunctions the girls had, and if it was safe to use. Through this research, I was able to research deeply, interview doctors and scientists to see their take on the topic of the HPV vaccine, and find interesting data and details I never knew.
