medically, not really. the vaccine acts the same. epidemiology wise, it makes it more effective, assuming the correct coverage.
I would just suggest that stating that an entire continent of different races/culture/religions "having multiple simultaneous partners" smells just a little bit of "savages over there", which given that we are talking about _evidence_ based outcomes, jars somewhat.

The multiple simultaneous sexual partners are relevant to the fact that prevalence of the disease in Africa is very high. This is not a vaccine-related question, so the action of the vaccine can't speak to it. > I would just suggest that stating that an entire continent of different races/culture/religions "having multiple simultaneous partners" smells just a little bit of "savages over there" Funny, if you look at my comment, you should see that it refers to "the much higher prevalence" of this behavior in Africa.
- KaiserPro 1y agoI do, and I don't see a source. More prevalent in comparison to which other continent? the indian sub continent? south asia? Does Ghana have a higher or lower prevalence compared to benin, egypt or eritrea?
