Genital infection estimates from a 2013-14 national health
survey were published Thursday in the journal JAMA Oncology.
Almost all of US males have had a genital infection at some point. And almost half are infected now.
But an alarming 1 in 4 men are walking around with a strain of HPV (human papallomavirus) that leads to cancer.
Yes there is a vaccine to prevent HPV but it has to be taken as a teen. To late for those infected already. But apparently teens today are not taking the threat seriously as vaccination rates are low.
