    I do understand that this helps eliminate some of the variants. That’s not what the headline is saying.

    Why not make it an article about HPV that would help with cervical cancer instead of a cancer article about HPV? Because clicks. It still wouldn’t eliminate 94, or 99% of cervical cancers, only HPV ones… Eliminate HPV doesn’t sound as good, we can’t even eliminate measles.

    It says 94% of cancers occur in those countries. That’s a far cry from what youre implying.

    Edit: I wouldn’t call bitching about cancer titles being blown of out proportion “contrarian” either
