Some people actually confuse their mild outbreaks with other skin conditions such as “eczema”. Early after infection, some people experience prodrome, a tingling, itching feeling that occurs in an area where blisters will shortly develop. Contrary to popular belief, both types can cause genital herpes (Osondu).

Gardasil is also designed to prevent genital warts that are caused by some other types of HPV in boys and in some young men aged 9 to 26 too. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) can be serious and cause genital warts and cervical/ vaginal cancers. The vaccine is based on the small, small amount of the infectious agents that cause the disease.

We could actually save, and even make money if all drugs were legal. All the money spent on drugs and addicts would be spent voluntarily. We wouldn’t need high tech machinery to find drugs because dealers and drug smuggler would be put out of business. We would have no reason for them if drugs were legal. All the money we saved from legalizing drugs could be spent on education and other things that would actually approve America.
