The new guidelines have extended the age up until, I think, late 40s for both men and women. It used to be only for young women because the cervical cancer risk, but now we've found that so many things are implicated with HPV that the... On label use is up to the late 40s. So if you have any concern, I highly recommend getting the vaccine.

Yeah. So HPV comes in about 200 strains or like 190 strains. Strains one, two, and four, for example, cause warts on the hands and feet. What you see like gym goers and kids, they get warts. HPV six and 11, for example, cause genital warts. HPV strains 16, 18, 31, and 33 cause cancer. The question is, when you get something, does it come with its brothers or its siblings?

And that's the question we don't know. The vaccine was made to treat high-risk strains, but because of cross-antigenicity, we see that patients who get vaccinated, their warts go away. And we saw this in the hospital in transplant patients who were covered with warts because of their immunosuppressed effect. When we would vaccinate them, their warts would get better.

Yeah, transplant patients and anybody who is immunosuppressed, they have a tough time fighting plantars warts, finger warts, any sort of viral-based condition because their immune system is suppressed from medications or otherwise. So they usually have a tough time fighting these things. They have a higher incidence of a lot of things, but the vaccine was cool in eradicating it.

Now, I'm not saying go get a vaccine because you have a plantar wart. That's silly and overkill. Usually, you know, warts we treat with, you know, freezing, in-office procedures, easy things, but... Planters' warts can be burnt out. Yeah, we burn them or freeze them or scrape them, use a little medication, but...

The vaccine does improve some of the burden of disease, even though it doesn't target that strain.

I think we're on the forefront. And the term vaccine is a... really big umbrella term.
