remember rick perry and the hpv vaccine. what are politics of this now? paul get for talking about vaccines like this? >> i guess from the political aspect what he gets is media attention. we are talking about him on tv. and he also can appeal to some of the libertarian branch of the republican primary voters who are big into personal liberty, freedoms and the right to choose what to do with their kids. i think it's important, john and you bring up hpv vaccine, to differentiate between what that is which is not a communicable disease, it's against cervical cancer and what we're talking about which is a communicable disease that was eeradicated and now has made a comeback and is a serious health threat to the united states. i'm sorry it's a political issue. i much rather hear sanjay gupta and dr. cohen talk about this than any other potential 2016er on either side of the issue. >> it's an important issue to hear from candidates if this an issue like this comes up because it's an issue of public policy. what happens in our schools. what happens if there's a

about this because i'm interested in learning more about what can be done to increase uptake of the hpv vaccine. we are really fortunate to have a vaccine today that can prevent most forms of cervical cancer, which i'm sure you know is the second leading cause of cancer death among women in the united states, about 12,000 women get cervical cancer every year. about 4000 are expected to die from it. we know that those are deaths that can now be prevented. i wanted to ask you what can state and local health departments do to more effectively promote hpv vaccine? >> that's a wonderful question and certainly we know that a lot of young women and men are not being protected against this virus yet who could be. in tennessee our emission rates are about one in three, and would like it to be much higher. we are working collaboratively with cancer advocates because they have wonderful experience raising awareness about breast exams and pap smears and we are collaborating together to try to help families understand that this new vaccine is a cancer prevention tool that can help reduce the risk of an abno
