RE: Cervical Cancer - Another Virus-induced Problem

You're welcome ;)
Of course it does not prevent the cancer but time and information advantages are always valuable when dealing with it. In addition if the test proves to be very specific (that is giving few false positive results) one can avoid many unnecessary operations to remove potentially cancerous tissue which in fact is only HPV infected but not cancerous.
