Heading to the Beach? Dry Off With Gardasil!

Ed Silverman at Pharmalot makes my day:

What better way to advertise to other beachgoers that you’re free of a sexually transmitted disease than to wrap yourself in this nicely designed terry velour towel, which measures 30 inches by 60 inches. Catch a wave and then use the towel to make clear to that attractive person nearby that genital warts or HPV won’t be a problem. Truly, this is a new way to advertise the advantages the vaccine has to offer. Frisky teenagers will love them!

And if this is your idea of a must-have summer item, you’ll be pleased to learn that there are five bidding days left for a lot of six terry velour towels. Looks like someone doesn’t want their swag.
