“…In addition, we draw attention to promising areas for future policy and research efforts in key areas, many of which are consistent with those identified during the 2016 meeting of the National HPV Vaccination Roundtable. 106 Researchers, practitioners, politicians, educators, and pro-vaccination groups are making great strides in increasing the HPV vaccination rate, but there is much progress that remains to be made.…”

The HPV vaccine debuted more than ten years ago in the United States and many strategies have been evaluated to increase HPV vaccination rates, which include not only improving current vaccination behaviors but also sustaining these behaviors. Researchers and practitioners from a variety of backgrounds have engaged in this work, which has included efforts directed at public health and government policies, health education and health promotion programs, and clinical and patient-provider approaches, as well as work aimed to respond to and combat anti-HPV vaccination movements in society. Using a previously developed conceptual model to organize and summarize each of these areas, this paper also highlights the need for future HPV vaccine promotion work to adopt a multi-level and, when possible, integrated approach in order to maximize impact on vaccination rates.

“…In 2016, the National HPV Vaccination Roundtable identified system-level approaches for improved uptake of the HPV vaccine as an important research gap. 57 Future research should identify systemic barriers that may interfere with series completion. Intervention development should focus on improving accessibility and addressing the research gaps recommended by the National HPV Vaccination Roundtable.…”

Purpose: Despite its availability for more than a decade, the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has low uptake in Texas (49%). The objective of this study was to understand parental knowledge and attitudes about HPV and the HPV vaccine as well as child experience with the HPV vaccine among a medically underserved, economically disadvantaged population. Methods: As part of a Cancer Prevention Research Institute of Texas-funded project to improve HPV vaccination rates, we surveyed parents / guardians of 4 th-12 th graders (ages 9-17) in the Rio Grande City Consolidated Independent School District (RGCCISD). Descriptive statistics were used to describe parents' knowledge and attitude and children's vaccine experience. Results: Of the 7,055 surveys distributed, 622 (8.8%) were returned. About 84% of the respondents were female. About 57.1% of the parents /guardians had female RGCCISD students with a mean age of 11.7 ± 1.8 years. Overall, 43.9% reported receiving a healthcare provider recommendation and 32.5% had their child vaccinated. Higher percentages were reported if the respondent was female and had a female child aged ≥15 years old. Among survey respondents, 28.2% reported their child initiated the HPV vaccine and 18.8% completed the series. Barriers of uptake included work / school schedule conflicts and no healthcare provider recommendation. Conclusions: There are still prominent gaps in parents' and students' complete understanding of HPV vaccination, gender preferences for vaccination, and provider recommendations. Future interventions must target men and minority populations in order to increase knowledge and awareness about HPV, the HPV vaccine, and HPV-associated cancers.

“…It is estimated that in the US about 75% of sexually active individuals would be infected with HPV at least once in their lifetime [3]. The main diseases that could develop from the virus are condyloma (genital warts), pre-cancerous changes in the cervix, cervical cancer, and other types of cancer [2,4]. 300 million people worldwide are infected annually, and about 250,000 die of the disease.…”

“…The papilloma virus is released from the body after 6-18 months, but some cases grow to various types of cancer or death [3]. The virus becomes dormant in the cell, which either creates a permanent infection or becomes a carrier [2,4,6].…”

Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Vaccine Acceptance for Girls Among Jewish and Muslim Parents in Israel

Several hundred species of Papillomaviridae (papillomaviruses) have been identified. The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), transmitted by sexual intercourse, is the most common venereal disease in the western world, and the main cause of cervical cancer. Two approved vaccines are recommended during puberty to vaccinate recipients before they are sexually active. Most parents decide to administer the vaccine, but some oppose the vaccine for different reasons. Various factors can affect parents’ decision to vaccinate their daughters. The goal of this study was to examine Israeli parents’ attitudes and knowledge about the HPV vaccine, and the differences between them in their decision whether to administer the vaccine to their daughters. A cross-sectional study examined the knowledge, behavioral beliefs, intention-to-administer HPV vaccines, and self-reported screening behavior of 150 Jewish and Muslims parents. Results indicated a link between knowledge and attitudes toward the vaccine. The more the knowledge, the higher parents’ intention was to administer the vaccine. Significant differences were found between Jewish and Muslim parents’ knowledge about the HPV vaccine. Religious parents knew less and were less inclined to vaccinate. We concluded that it is very important to clarify the factors influencing parents’ decision to vaccinate their daughters.
