Who's At Risk
Anyone can get warts, although they are most commonly found on people aged 12–16 years and on lighter-skinned individuals. It is estimated that 20% of schoolchildren and about 10% of the general population have warts. Those with HIV or organ transplants or on chemotherapy have a higher incidence of warts because of their weakened immune system.
