Does anyone know if this vaccine will be used as a preventative measure? I was diagnosed with DCIS in one breast in 2005. With my family history of BC, I chose bilateral mastectomy. I've been cancer free for 6 years!!! Praise God! However, I do have a daughter that is only 20 years old and am thinking about her chances of getting this diagnosis some day. I pray this doesn't happen. I was 43 years old when diagnosed.

I was wondering if this vaccine would prevent it from occurring????
Thanks,
