| A link of an infection with the human papillomavirus and cervical cancer has been known for a while and led to programmes to vaccinate girls early, for instance, at an age of 12 or 13. In a new study a potential link between infections with human papillomavirus and prostate cancer has been found. This strengthens the case for vaccinating boys early on too. |
