Does Gardasil Protect Against Genital Warts After The First Shot, Or Only After You’ve Received All Three?02.25.10

Gardasil protects against 4 strains of HPV: 2 strains that cause 70% of all cervical cancers, and 2 strains that cause 90% of all genital warts. There are hundreds of strains of HPV; they cause warts and cancers in various parts of the body — not just genitals. Some of the strains not covered by the vaccine still cause a small fraction of cases, which is why you will still need Pap smears. But the vaccine is by and large highly effective.
HOWEVER, you need all 3 shots to gain full protection against the 4 major HPV strains. One shot gives partial protection, but you need to complete the series for full, reliable protection.

Is There Such A Thing As Crotchless Latex Underwear To Protect Against Genital Warts And Genital Herpes?11.11.09

Or something similar so people can have sex and not worry about genital warts and genital herpes?
Condoms can only somewhat protect against genital warts and genital herpes since you can get it by simple genital skin to genital skin contact and don’t even necessarily need to have sexual intercourse.
So is there some kind of skin privates condom or underwear condom?
I know about liquid latex, but that seems so messy and difficult.
