Answer:

HPV

Step-by-step explanation:

There are some risk factors that are related to the incidence of cervical cancer. The most important that participates in the development of premalignant lesions is human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.

It is an easily transmitted virus and is very common. It is estimated that 4 out of 5 people (that is, 80%) will get one or more types of HPV at some time in their lives. Both women and men can get and transmit HPV.
