Over the last decade, schoolgirls across the UK have routinely received the HPV vaccine when they are 12 or 13.A team of academics - from Strathclyde, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Glasgow Caledonian universities - analysed vaccination and screening records for 140,000 women who went for their first cervical screen from 2008-2016.
Many types of HPV affect the mouth, throat or genital area. They're easy to catch - you can get HPV from sexual contact.When the vaccination programme began, researchers thought that the vaccine would knock out two types of HPV, which cause 80% of pre-cancerous conditions. Recent studies have also suggested that HPV plays a part in causing other cancers, particularly head-and-neck, vulvo-vaginal and anal cancers.
"We assessed 140,000 women in this study and because we can link status of vaccination to the disease its impact is indisputable."Laura McAdam was diagnosed with cervical cancer in 2016In 2016, she was diagnosed with cervical cancer after a routine smear test found changes in her cervix - despite having no symptoms.
She added:"Although I've had treatment I don't think my nightmare will ever really be over as I'll constantly be worrying if they got all the cancer or if it's come back. "Focusing on communities and areas where take up is below the national average should be a priority."
“Uptake of screening in fully vaccinated women aged 20 or 21 is 51%, and only 23% in unvaccinated women. It is possible therefore that vaccine effectiveness was over-estimated.” Meanwhile the many girls w/ serious side effects of vax are continued to be dismissed & denied help
It’s good to hear there is finally some progress on prevention, rather than just treatment/management, of a cancer.
Nothing wrong with the Mercury we used to use.
Under 24s just do not have it - in those 140.000 you might find 1 case. How safe and how significant can findings be
Great marketing! 'later life'? The vaccination only exists for 10years and is offered to under 14 year old - so the oldest are 24 now. The cancer typically develops at 57 years of age. Has safer sex ever been promoted there? Are the findings mainly related to this? hiv
Manipulation. Wait a decade or 3.
Wish they had this back in the 80s. Would have saved me yea grief years later.
Such a reverse psychology lie. Just last month you were complaining young women were not getting the injections; now you're advertising a false statistic to promote it. Pick one
Cmon ladies, get queuing for your aluminium injections!
Good news for Britain ! So , Teresa May can stay power little longer ! 😊
Surely vaccines can't be good for you?! Say it ain't so!!
Vaccine should be available to everyone not currently infected with HPV.
