Someone else said Cervical Cancer was the 5th leading cause of deaths among women. I’m guessing that was incorrect.

Yes it is incorrect. Death rates have declined dramatically in the last 40 years. My info came from the CDC website.

Post 132 has the figures.

I need to correct my figures in post 132. Forgive me my decimals were in the wrong place.

That means that 00.07904% of women were diagnosed with cervical cancer.

Percentage of deaths were 00.00258%
