And do people born after 1990 do this particularly more than those born in the previous decades?

I have never heard of this. If you have more information this would be a potential lawsuit. However, vaccination is known to be ineffective over the age of 25 for preventing the most commonly associated HPVs with cancer (subtypes 16, 18, etc) because of the high likelihood it has already embedded into the body by an older age, and a vaccine does not retroactively remove that HPV.

They definitely cut the prevalence of the subtypes they vaccinate for. the previously high-hitters for cancer (16, 18) are effectively reduced by a rate of something like 80% from vaccination. However other subtypes that the vaccine doesnt block could be behind the ongoing rise in cancer along with the unvaccinated.

That said -- I have yet to see statistics that show that the spread of HPV is down overall particularly for subtypes associated with cancer. That would be wonderful to see, but google/the CDC does not readily show such data to me, I'd have to keep digging

Now we do know that something like 91% of anal cancer (not colorectal) and 70% of throat cancer is HPV related according to the CDC. And unfortunately both throat cancer and anal cancer are in fact on the rise for all age groups and there is a hidden epidemic where young people are now getting it.

This to me would imply the possibility that the HPV vaccination is not effective currently -- either due to a lack of vaccination across previous generations or because of cancerous subtypes not covered by any vaccine.

Prostate cancer is also seeking an uptick in young people https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/prost.html

There is no shortage of links between HPV and anal cancer, throat cancer, prostate cancer, all affecting males.

"Percentage probably caused by any HPV types" https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/hpv/statistics/cases.htm

91% of anal cancer 63% of penis cancer 70% of oropharyngeal cancer

It's a highly contagious virus that is hard to prevent, unfortunately. But education and awareness would be good even if the vast majority of the population will get some form of HPV. The vaccines are effective against the previously most common cancer causing strains, however additional strains not yet covered by vaccination are on the rise.

I want to point out that arguing that the cause is the above does not explain why young people are particularly at the most risk since all age groups would be affected by those environmental factors somewhat equally. (Except for the tide pod challenge...)

In fact -- colorectal cancer incident rates have gone down and survivorship rates are up across the general population according to SEER monitoring (https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/colorect.html).

Now what is alarming is which cancers are particularly rising: Anal cancer and Throat cancer. https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/anus.html https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/oralcav.html

As well as an uptick in prostate cancer https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/prost.html

And it is not hard to find studies supporting a link between colorectal cancer and HPV: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23895733/. https://ascopost.com/issues/october-25-2017/could-the-rising... -- but as always there are conflicting studies.

So I think that the page needs to talk about STDs such as HPV, as a potential source. HPV in particular is attributed to cause anal (91%), cervix (91%), vaginal (75%), Oropharynx (70%), vulva (69%), and penis (63%) cancers. (https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/hpv/statistics/cases.htm).

Something to admit is that people born from 1990 onwards have more sexual partners than their predecessors, with online dating, as well as exposure to more HPV strains from around the world due to globalization. https://harmreductionjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1...

It may "pull" in the opposite direction but the spread of HPV is actually on the rise and we have a cancer epidemic for young people: throat cancer and anal cancer in particular. Prostate and ovarian cancer seem to still mostly hit people in their 50s and beyond (also most often related to HPV).

Infection by the human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most important risk factor for anal cancer. Most squamous cell anal cancers are linked to infection with HPV. HPV is a group of more than 150 related viruses, the same group of viruses that causes cervical cancer, as well as other kinds of cancer. In fact, women with a history of cervical cancer (or pre-cancer) have an increased risk of anal cancer.

Kind of wild that the linked article fails to mention STIs and HPV.

rinsing dishes of excess rinse aid/soap does not prevent HPV, the leading cofactor of anal cancer.

Were you tested for HPV?

beans dont prevent HPV, the leading cofactor of anal cancer.

cell phones dont spread HPV, the leading cofactor for anal cancer.

actually all sex. skin to skin contact, oral sex, penetrative sex, they are all ways HPV can lead to prostate cancer, anal cancer, ovarian cancer, and throat cancer. from any given point of entry.

spreading HPV.

Before you start mentioning detergents, look at something that actually modifies the mitosis of cells: viruses.

With the sexual revolution and online dating apps, there has been a sharp rise in the spread and strains of HPV.

From their own website: HPV is the most common cofactor for anal cancer in general: https://www.cancer.org/cancer/anal-cancer/causes-risks-preve...

Because the test for HPV only commonly exists for women, and not men, many women fail to disclose that they have an ongoing infection because of the gender imbalance. Obviously both men and women are spreading it though.
