HPV vaccine

My wife works at a major hospital in my area and came home the other day telling me about how she heard from another person there that a new study on the HPV vaccine came out. This study stated something along the lines that the vaccine helps to prevent the strains of HPV that cause cancer, but does nothing to the other strains which were thought to be non-harmful (this part is true). According to the study, there apparently was some sort of symbiosis between all the strains, and now that some are prevented from living in us, the others have turned out to be harmful.



Something like that.... Anyways, I've been unable to confirm anything like this. I'm one of the more vocal proponents in my crowd for getting vaccinated (I'm a person with an auto-immune disease that, even though I'm vaccinated myself, I have a higher risk of catching stuff). Nonsense like the stuff the anti-vac crowd spews out really bothers me, and I like to crush their silly articles and studies with actual facts. But I can't even find info on this one using my Google-Fu.



Has anyone heard this one before? My search here pulled up nothing on HPV. It is probably on some anti-vac site that I have so far been unwilling to visit....
