The HPV virus's incubation period is 20 years,

That's kind of strange. How did I get warts in 3 months? I certainly didn't have sex when I was 2.


I think they meant "virus's incubation period is as long as 20 years"....

Actually, I think what they meant was that it could take as long as 20 years(or longer) to grow cancer. I have seen women in their early 20's with advanced cervical cancer, however.

Eva Peron was 33 when she died of advanced cervical cancer.
