Question
Laura Brennan, a human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine advocate and cervical cancer casualty, was diagnosed with HPV-16-associated
cervical cancer at age 24. In 2018, U.S. health officials extended the allowable age for the HPV vaccine to 45.
Determine which patients will have the greatest chance of protection from the Gardasil vaccine, which prevents infections of nine
strains of HPV including HPV-16 and HPV-18 and five additional types of cancer-causing HPV as well as strains HPV-6 and HPV-11 that
cause genital warts. Recall that vaccines train the body's immune system to recognize a particular infection (see figure).
