Human Papillomaviruses (HPVs) are a group of more than 100 related viruses. About 40 types are sexually transmitted. Of the 40, 2 types are considered to cause;

70% of cervical & anal cancer 50% of vaginal, vulvar & penile cancers 20% of head & neck cancers

So be responsible, practice safe sex, stick to one partner and all ladies get regular pap smear tests to increase chances of early diagnosis of cervical cancer.
