HPV and school-based vaccination community clinics
Our School Aged Immunisation team is currently delivering the human papillomavirus (HPV) immunisation programme in Gloucestershire schools to all children in Year 8, and students in Years 9, 10 and 11 who have not previously taken up the offer.
HPV vaccination programme moves to single dose
The Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine helps to prevent HPV-related cancers from developing in boys and girls. While most types of HPV are harmless, some high-risk types can lead to the development of cancers, including cervical cancer, cancers of the head and neck (mouth and throat) and cancers of the anus and genital areas.
