Question 122

Multiple Choice

Gina has a 12-year-old daughter and a 13-year-old son. After much deliberation, she got her daughter the human papillomavirus virus vaccine so her daughter would never have to worry about this. What mistake(s) is Gina making?


A) Her daughter shouldn't get the vaccine until she is at least 16 years old.
B) The vaccine does not protect against all strains of HPV, so her daughter must still be concerned when she becomes sexually active.
C) She should be getting her son the vaccine, too, and even with the vaccine, the risk of infection is reduced, not eliminated.
D) The vaccine is only given to individuals who are already sexually active.
