Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a virus that includes more than 100 different strains or types. "Low risk" HPV types can cause the common warts which are often found on the fingers and feet. However, like the from in the fairy tale, "high risk" HPV types can be a lot more than you bargain for: untreated, they can ultimately lead to cervical (and other) cancers. Fortunately a vaccine is now available which protects against several of the most common HPV types, including specifically those which are risk-factors for cancer. Now that's a wish come true!
