Best Answer

The HPV vaccinations are meant to protect against the high-risk, cancer causing HPV subtypes. They also provide some protection against the most common types of wart-causing HPV. Because patients rarely have contracted all subtypes, the vaccine is recommended even for those patients with a history of HPV or genital warts, to protect against subtypes not yet contracted.
