Human Papillomavirus in Jordan—A selective study of 650 cases
A selective study limited to Amman, Jordan indicates that cervical HPV, particularly HR-HPV infection, affects residents of Amman, Jordan, in whom cervical cancer ranks 10<sup>th</sup> in women 15-44 years old. Any extrapolation on incidence rates awaits extension into other cities and rural zones of Jordan. Occurrence of HR-HPV genotypes and FU data justify promoting HPV vaccination programs to curb cervical cancer.
