Studies from Hangzhou Normal University Provide New Data on Human Papillomavirus Vaccines (Inequities in human papillomavirus vaccination among children aged 9-14 years old under constrained vaccine supply in China).

A study conducted by Hangzhou Normal University in China examined the inequities in human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination among children aged 9-14 years old under constrained vaccine supply. The study found that there were significant disparities in HPV vaccine awareness, intention, and vaccination behavior across various factors such as education, income, geography, ethnicity, gender, and health literacy levels. The research suggests that sustained health education campaigns are needed to raise awareness of the HPV vaccine and improve health literacy. Additionally, the study advocates for complementary cervical cancer prevention programs targeting both mothers and daughters. [Extracted from the article]
