@Justaguy,

HPV OC is an Oropharynx OC, so the new incident rate is less than your calculations, but growing.

Studies have shown the risk of HPV OC goes up with the number of sex partners a person has (particularly oral sex partners). Your odds of developing HPV OC from a single exposure are extremely low.

Supporting and advocating vaccination programs for all our children and youth can end the spread of HPV OC.
