- azinman2 7y agoNot true: https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/infectious-agents/hpv-and-cancer https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/i... None of this is relevant to my original point: future pandemics.
- foldr 7y agoHPV somewhat increases the risk of some cancers. You are still unlikely to get any of these cancers even if you have HPV. You can also get vaccinated against HPV, which reduces the risks still further. It seems pointless to speculate about future pandemics.
