‘Someone You Love: HPV Epidemic’ presentation
For their senior project, Minot State University semester IV nursing students will screen “Someone You Love: HPV Epidemic” Dec. 1 in the Conference Center at 6 p.m. The documentary tells the stories of five women impacted by the Human Papilloma Virus. The students wish to raise awareness about HPV cancer prevention.
“Three out of four people will contract HPV during their lifetimes,” said Elizabeth Combs, from Arroyo Grande, Calif. “The vaccination series, which is available to both males and females, greatly reduces the possibility of developing cancer.”
Vaccines will be provided on site to MSU students following the presentation. A panel of experts, consisting of local doctors and nurses, will be present to educate and answer questions. Prizes for those who attend will also be given. For questions, contact Combs at elizabeth.combs@my.minotstateu.edu.
