  1. HPV type was determined from Sanger sequence after touch-down PCR or next-generation sequencing. Also detected were individual samples with HPV30, HPV42, HPV52, HPV55, HPV66, HPV67, HPV70, HPV73, HPV86, HPV114 and two samples each with HPV53, HPV71 and HPV74. Multiple infections could only be assessed in 27 samples positive by the next-generation sequencing assay; 6/27 samples (22%) had multiple infections but only 1/27 (4%) had multiple HR infections
