Yes, you do.
The HPV vaccine is excellent and covers many strains of the HPV virus, and the strains included in the shot are the ones most likely to cause Cervical cancer. It is very, very effective. But you need PAP smears still because:
1. Not all strains of HPV are in the vaccine, so even though it would be rare you could still get a form of HPV and go on to develop cervical cancer.
2. Not all cervical cancers are caused by HPV (though many are).
