Protect Yourself On Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is all about romance and tenderness.

But because a whopping 79 million Americans are currently infected with the human papillomavirus virus (HPV), the need to be prudent on the 14th of February can’t be ignored.

WHAT MAKES PHYSICAL ROMANCE SO TROUBLING: of the 40 strains of HPV transmitted via sex, there are at least 15 high-risk versions that can mutate into cancer.

Ergo, the medical community is issuing an alert that a particular sexual behaviour can trigger the growth of HPV-related cancers. If you are a retiree, health care professionals believe that you are particularly vulnerable.

Watch this video and learn how to enjoy Valentine’s Day without the cloud of cancer undermining your romantic evening.
