Municipally sponsored human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination of boys in Slovenia: the first 4 years.
CONCLUSIONS: Our data show that the outstanding local initiative by several pediatricians and school medicine specialists can result in HPV vaccine coverage rates of boys that are comparable to or even higher than those in the national vaccination program for girls. Because acceptance of HPV vaccination among boys in Slovenia is adequate, we believe that the inclusion of boys in the national vaccination program, predicted to occur in the 2020/2021 school year, will yield significant results.

The Evaluation of a Digital Health Intervention to Improve Human Papillomavirus Vaccine Recommendation Practices of Medical Students
AbstractWe investigated what is being taught about HPV in US medical schools and evaluated a digital health intervention for medical students to increase their intention to provide a high-quality HPV vaccine recommendation. An online survey was emailed to Academic Deans at the 124 accredited US Schools of Medicine and Osteopathic Medicine between February and April 2018. A digital educational module was emailed to medical students in June 2020. A single-subject longitudinal study design was employed. Pre- post-survey administration measured change in knowledge, attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and...

COVID-19 vaccines may undergo major overhaul this fall
Earlier this year, U.S. regulators settled on
a new strategy for COVID-19 vaccines
. Like the annual flu shot, the vaccines will be updated each year based on the virus’ evolution, then rolled out in the fall. Accordingly, on 15 June, advisers to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
will weigh which strain or strains of SARS-CoV-2
should make up the next iteration of vaccine, so that the agency can greenlight a version for companies to mass-produce.
Regulators may well jettison the original SARS-CoV-2 strain that emerged in China and is long extinct—but which people are still being vaccinated against ...

Perspectives on Human Papilloma Virus Vaccination Barriers, Knowledge and Beliefs, and Practices: Providers Serving Arab-American Populations
AbstractLittle is known of HPV vaccination (HPVV) recommendation practices among healthcare providers who treat the Arab American community. Evidence indicates that HPVV patient uptake is low in this population. A survey was administered to healthcare providers (N = 46, 63% response rate) who treated ≥ 5% Arab American patients aged 9–26 years in areas of New York City and New Jersey with large Arab American populations. They were asked about barriers to HPVV recommendation and uptake among their Arab American patients. Providers (Doctors of Medi cine and Osteopathy, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistan...

Human papillomavirus vaccine: Safe, effective, underused
Vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV) is safe and effective. It is recommended for females age 9 to 26 and for males age 11 to 26, yet vaccination rates are low. We review the host immune response, the data behind the recommendations for HPV vaccination, and the challenges of implementing the vaccination program.

Screening for gynaecological conditions
Abstract: Well-organized cervical screening programmes have reduced the mortality from cervical cancer by up to 50% in the developed world. Despite the successful development of human papillomavirus vaccines there is likely to remain a need for cervical screening for the foreseeable future. In contrast, the value of mass screening for other gynaecological cancers remains unproven, although current screening methods can detect early stage ovarian cancer in asymptomatic individuals. Breast screening does appear to be associated with a reduction in mortality in women aged 50–69 years but disagreement remains about its value...

Geographic Variability in Human Papillomavirus Vaccination Among U.S. Young Women
Conclusions:
Results demonstrate disparity in HPV vaccine uptake by region of residence in the U.S. among young women. Further research is needed to understand the factors contributing to this geographic disparity. Evaluation of vaccination policies and practices associated with higher coverage regions might help characterize effective methods to improve HPV vaccination among women aged 18–26 years.
