HPV immunization has been recommended for pre-teens and teens for over a decade, however vaccination rates remain low. In October 2016 the CDC changed their recommendations to 2 doses of HPV vaccine in teens before their 15th birthday (from 3 doses), does this make it easier for completion?
Learning Objectives:
- Review the current recommendations for Human Papilloma Vaccination (HPV) in the young adolescent population including immunogenicity.
