Study: Broader Availability of Information, Focus on Prevention Would Aid HPV Immunization Efforts
Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer CenterCurrently, human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates remain low across the U.S., with fewer than 40% of girls and just over 21% of boys receiving the recommended vaccine series. Research from Roswell Park Cancer Institute has identified barriers that need to be overcome to improve vaccination rates, as well as possible strategies for doing so. The study has been published online ahead of print in the Journal of Cancer Education.
