Another vaccine that could be best used to fight against Human Papilloma Virus is CERVARIX. As a matter of information, this virus is likely to be transmitted through sexual activities which could cause genital warts for both men and women and worst is cervical cancer for women.
Talking forward, this vaccine works by awakening the body’s immune system to fight against human papilloma virus thus staying clear of any HPV infections or any ailments caused by this virus.
Whenever our body is subjected to any unusual organisms like virus and bacteria, our immune system then yields antibodies to fight against these objects. These antibodies recognize then obliterate such unusual organisms. So, our immune system really plays a vital role in keeping our body healthy.
In that connection, Cervarix vaccine has extracts or inactivated bacteria to stimulate our immune system to produce more antibodies but take note that these bacteria doesn’t really cause any diseases. It just triggers our immune to generate more and more antibodies. When the time that there are enough antibodies produced, these antibodies remain within our body and guard us for whatever foreign objects to come and attack us.
Every different inactivated bacterium also triggers our immune system to generate different kinds of antibody as well.
Now, the good thing about this Cervarix is the fact that it contains two inactivated extracts coming from human papilloma virus itself. Specifically type sixteen and eighteen. These types of HPV are the main cause of any cancer in the cervix. Apparently, Cervarix then triggers the immune system to produce antibodies to fight this inactivated virus. Thus, making the body alert for any attack of cervical cancer.
Cervarix is given through injection. It consists of three doses. The first one is given for the first month and the second dose in the second month while the third dose will be given four months after the second dose.
