      <title>Information for Activists</title>
      <description>I have found a plethora of information from research companies&amp;nbsp;to pharmaceutical corporations, etc. Let me finish sorting through it, and I will post it. I think it is critical for women to bombard these people with letters, phone calls, emails, faxes, etc., to get medication for people infected with HPV. I&amp;#39;m glad a vaccine is being tested, but there is a frightening gap between research in HPV itself and the vaccine. If we don&amp;#39;t demand something, it won&amp;#39;t happen. Doctors and nurses I have met care, but insofar as the corporations are concerned, money is the name of the game. They won&amp;#39;t care unless they are made to care.</description>

      <title>RE: Information for Activists</title>
      <description>I think you are quite right.&amp;nbsp; Money talks- and I have found that cervical cancer prevention is based almost completely on the PAP test and have 2 friends with cervical cancer who were told had tumors less than 1 year old.&amp;nbsp; So where is the research in treating this disease?&amp;nbsp; What about vaccinating men/boys for HPV since they are carriers?&amp;nbsp; Where&amp;#39;s the research on that?&amp;nbsp; I&amp;#39;ll be glad to do what you suggested- great idea-!!!!</description>
