This is the first cohort of folks that age who were offered the HPV vaccine when they were 12 or 13.
Expect even more dramatic results as that group enters their 30s & 40s.
Penis cancer is a thing. Yes, males get HPV and are half the problem. HPV also responsible for a lot of throat cancers.
I was looking it up myself too, I didn’t realize that there are hundreds of HPV variants and is the cause of warts. Seems a little silly now to think it was primarily a virus that only causes cervical cancer.
Not so silly and now you know! Thanks for asking the question so others could chime in with info :)
Thanks Velma, I appreciate your understanding! If I were shutting down chuds the same way you do every day, I probably wouldn’t have had that same amount of patience with my own question
Hey I really appreciate that, thank you. I much prefer these types of convos where everyone is respectful and inquisitive.
