> While links between HPV and cervical cancer are quite strong and well-defined, the associations with the other viruses you cite are only correlative.
HPV is merely correlative, as well. That's basically how all endogenous cancers work. With Epstein-Barr Virus the association is quite strong, though the incidence of EBV-induced cancers doesn't seem to be quite as large as HPV--~1% vs 2-3%.
