#1 Yes!
I privately guessed that HPV (and other viruses in stem cells) is responsible for most to all of cancer.

HPV likes to infect damaged cells, it's not the damage that causes the cancer.

#2 I'm expecting a "unexpected" drop in lots of cancers from the HPV vaccine, just wish I could get vaccinated with it myself.

The state says no I'm not allowed to.

Thanks NHS...

#3 Here's a tip you won't get from the NHS; avoid travel to Amesbury BP.

#4 The state says no I'm not allowed to.

Can you pay a private physician to do it, Bright Pebbles? Or go to America in holiday, and get it done here at a drugstore pharmacy. The national Walgreens chain offers HPV innoculations , among others.

#5 I expect GLOBAL WARMING and the anticipated burst of heat wave caused melanoma may change their stand.

#6 Then there is the widely prescribed, dirt-cheap and extensively researched drug Metformin, used mostly for Type II diabetes. Repeated studies have shown that populations which take this drug for years tend to live longer and have less cancers of all kinds. This is independent of its effect on diabetes. Metformin is often used as a comparison drug when other anti-diabetes drugs are being researched. The unusual "side effect" has turned up repeatedly in these studies.
