Cervical Cancer Vaccine Proves Effective

Merck & Co, a New York pharmaceutical company have announced that they produced a cervical cancer vaccine which has proved to be 100% effective. This is the first time in the world that a vaccine created to prevent cancer has been developed. The vaccine, known as Gardasil, is being submitted for approval by the FDA within the next two months.

This is great news and I hope will lead on to more cancer vaccines being made. The test results proved to be 100% effective in any type treatment, which is very rarely heard.
