HPV Causes Tonsil Cancer

A once rare form of tonsil cancer caused by the same human papilloma virus (HPV) that causes cervical cancer in women is spreading rapidly though the United States. Unlike other oral cancers, which are often caused by tobacco and alcohol, the new cancer is usually spread by oral sex, but can even be transmitted by a kiss or through a shared drinking glass. 75 percent of its victims are men. One solution may be to vaccinate all boys against the HPV virus.
