Was there a big risk of dying of cervical cancer before 30 before the jabs?

Article is a bit unclear if this includes only under 30 oder under 35 but "HPV vaccination has prevented nearly 200 young women from dying from cervical cancer in England". Plus the many more cervical cancer cases it will prevent after 35. (plus anal, penis and pharyngeal carcinomas)
