1. HPV is a virus.
2. It lives on the skin and can be transmitted through skin-to-skin contact.

4. The HPV vaccine triggers the body to create antibodies that attach to the virus and prevent it from infecting cells.
5. The vaccine is usually given to young girls in school, but adults can also ask their doctor about getting it.
