New Hampshire's supply of Gardasil, the vaccine that can help prevent cervical cancer by guarding against human papilloma virus, is running low, the Associated Press reported on Tuesday.

Without aid from the state, the vaccination costs approximately $360 total, but it is covered by some forms of health insurance. The short supply has caused doctors to debate whether to give out the remaining doses to older women who will soon be ineligible for the program, or to younger teenagers who are not yet sexually active.
