BUILDING AWARENESS AND PROVIDING EDUCATION ABOUT HPV THROAT CANCER
We’re talking about HPV because about 79 million Americans are infected with HPV. The CDC says HPV is the MOST common sexually transmitted infection (STI). Every year in the U.S., 33,700 people will get cancer caused by HPV. And in 2015, HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer (base of tongue, tonsils, soft palate) surpassed cervical cancer cases. HPVANDME is dedicated to supporting people affected by HPV: patients, partners, and caregivers.
