Its available on the OCF newsfeed. Everyone should sign up for this free service to get all the latest OC news. At this time HPV is being researched and new info is being learned. While much info has been learned already about HPV, there is much more which is yet to be discovered. This is one of the reasons all the donations to OCF are so important.... OCF funds not just OC but also HPV research.
