A recent study published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute confirms the effectiveness of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in preventing invasive cervical cancer. The study, conducted in Scotland, linked vaccination records with cervical cancer screening data and the national cancer registry. It found that girls who were immunized with the bivalent HPV vaccine at the age of 12 to 13 had excellent protection against invasive cervical cancer. The study adds to the existing evidence from intervention trials and population-based surveillance, supporting the high level of effectiveness of HPV vaccination in preventing cervical cancer. The findings highlight the importance of vaccinating teenagers and offer recommendations for routine vaccination programs. The study also emphasizes the need for legal frameworks and administrative solutions to facilitate the monitoring of preventive health programs through the linkage of individual patient data.
