Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common virus that can cause several kinds of cancer.

HPV causes almost all cervical cancer in the US and most of the cancers of the vulva, vagina, penis, anus, and back of the throat. Each year in the US, about 35,000 people are affected by cancers caused by HPV.

HPV vaccination IS cancer prevention.
