How amazing nature is! Papilloma can be transmitted through the air. Therefore, it will be desirable for some people to be vaccinated even in adulthood.

Everyone has heard of the human papillomavirus. It causes warts and cancer. You have to get rid of warts and precancerous diseases in different ways.

If the way to get rid of any dysplasia is associated with high temperature, then part of this entire economy, along with viruses, is sublimated into the air in the form of smoke or aerosol during the burning process.

Such smoke flies out of the patient (or rather the patient) flies through the treatment, manipulation or operating room and flies into the doctor's nose and mouth.

It is clear that gynecologists are more susceptible to such cases. They usually don't expect trouble and don't deal with aerosols.

And now it turns out that the smoke from burning out dysplasia can infect the doctor himself with the human papillomavirus.

Gynecologists who are engaged in such procedures were examined, and it turned out that in 9-10% of cases they have cells infected with the human papillomavirus in their noses. And among gynecologists who were not involved in such procedures, the infection rate was only 2 - 3%.

It should be noted here that the human papillomavirus, which can cause cancer in women, can also cause cancer in men. And in the throat.

The American actor who starred in a movie about a giant emerald in the shape of a heart was recently treated for cancer of the larynx, most likely caused by the human papillomavirus.

The scale of this disaster is not yet clear. Only four cases of throat cancer in health care workers have been reliably reported.

It seems that not only the gynecologists themselves, but also the nurses and other personnel who will be in the immediate vicinity of the source of smoke during the manipulation are under attack.

This means that medics will need to wear respirators, which usually protect against infection, airborne, and it is advisable to be vaccinated against the human papillomavirus as any schoolgirls.

You really can't guess where the trouble will come from ...
