Thank you.
As you are probably well aware—although the general public isn't well aware of this—the reality is that HPV goes back to Neanderthal times. We first found out about HPV, I believe, in 1949. Strauss et al. discovered it, and the reality was that it was done using an electron microscope.
When I started practice, the electron microscope was the testing device of the day, but the reality is that we've seen it out there. The vaccine was basically found in 2008, and again that's public knowledge that we need to get out to Canadians to truly understand the value.
The challenge we have is the cost of that HPV vaccine, because there is a perception out there that it is free, but it isn't. In some cases they're talking about $300, $400 or $500 for people who just can't afford it.
Do you have any thoughts on that?
