The Cervical Cancer Vaccine
Uterine cancer plaguing women of various ages, and is a disease to which science does not stop to investigate. The vaccine against cervical cancer has been proposed as a solution, not part-final but that disease.
The vaccine for cervical cancer (cervical or cervical) costs between 200 and 400 euros. The fact that this disease has such a high number of victims worldwide has questioned whether the vaccine has this high price, which has been recommended in several countries that is free of charge to the entire population with access to cervical cancer to it. Personally I consider desirable free vaccination. Services like these can not be denied to people with low income, which largely-in some countries, has no access even to health coverage.
Prevent the Spread of Hepatitis B
To prevent the spread of hepatitis B, there are two possibilities, as with the hepatitis A vaccine (shots), and personal care.
All babies have to wear it. The first injection is given at any time between the 4th or 8th week of life, but if the mother is a carrier is administered at 12 hours of birth, the second within 30 days s and 2 months of age (depending on when administered first) and the third between 6 and 18 months of age.
Vaccination in older children and adults
They can also be vaccinated children and adults who have done so before. The vaccination takes place over six months, during which you have to put three shots over six months. Children who are not vaccinated should. Furthermore, this preventive method is known as combined vaccine is especially indicated in:
* Travelers in endemic areas A and B virus: Africa, South America, Eastern Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, China and Pacific islands (excluding Australia, New Zealand and Japan).
* Gay men with multiple partners.
* Users of intravenous drugs.
* Patients with hemophilia.
* Personal health hospitals. Although most children who receive the vaccine have no problem following the same, sometimes there may be minor problems such as redness or tenderness at the injection site. The most serious problems associated with it are very rare.
However not recommended vaccine administration:
* Before any more serious illness than a cold.
* If, after one dose of vaccine is given a severe allergic reaction.
Another possibility goes through personal care, hygiene measures that everyone should follow, for example:
* Use condoms every time you have sex.
* Do not share needles to inject drugs.
* Wear gloves if you have to touch another person’s blood.
* Do not use a toothbrush or razor from an infected person, or anything else that might have traces of his blood.
* Ensure that the instruments are clean, if getting a tattoo or piercing a body part.
