The rough figures from the CDC are as follows.

8 diagnoses of cervical cancer per
100,000 women, per year, with a mortality rate of about 33%

For reference, the fatalies from road accidents are about 15/100,00/year.

Now doesn't that make even a quite expensive vaccine seem like a sensible way of protecting someone?
