“Approximately 20 million Americans are currently infected with HPV. Another 6 million people become newly infected each year. HPV is so common that at least 50% of sexually active men and women get it at some point in their lives.”
Does that count as “pandemic”, or is that “rare and isolated”?
4000 women succumb to cervical cancer in a year Charles. 70% of those are related to HPV meaning 2800 women in America die from HPV related cervical cancer. More kids die from drowning. I note that you would be put your kids in lifevests every time they enter the water. Your right as a parent to do so without having to opt out or in. Here's some unsolicited advice though, teach them to swim.
You might also lock them in the basement since skin cancer kills 3 times as many Americans as HPV related cervical cancer. The point is to save lives, right Charles?
