Dr. Joel Palefsky, a noted expert in the area of anal cancer, reported that while the occurence of anal cancer in the United States is only 0.9/100,000, this number jumps to 35/100,000 for homosexuals. <ref>http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=IS01B1</ref> In addition, this rate doubles again for those who are HIV positive, which, Dr. Palefsky states is "roughly ten times higher than the current rate of cervical cancer."<ref>http://www.frc.org/get.cfm?i=IS01B1</ref>
