The 3-dose treatment is recommended for:
- females age 13 to 26
- males age 13 to 21
- men through age 26 who have sex with men or whose immune system is weakened because of HIV infection, other illness, or medications
Maybe you're personally not in those groups either, but last time I checked the stats, female compliance was about a third, and males in the single digits. So, most young people are anti-vaxxers, even if they don't realize it.
Quote:All girls aged 12 to 13 are offered HPV (human papilloma virus) vaccination as part of the NHS childhood vaccination programme.
The vaccine protects against cervical cancer. It's usually given to girls in year eight at schools in England.
