You are right. I know that it is the same vaccine, as LT wrote. What I meant to say that it's "Still in the works" as far as your Insurance covering it for Boys. I am sure that your Doctor will give them the Vaccine, but your Insurance may not pay. A series of 3 injections, and it's expensive out of pocket, but well worth it.
Well i found this this morning anyways
