HPV – cervical cancer vaccine

HPV – cervical cancer vaccine

A free cervical cancer vaccine is available for everyone, male and female, aged 9–26 years, including non-residents under the age of 18.

 

The vaccine offers protection against human papillomaviruses (HPV) that can lead to cervical cancer. Males are vaccinated, too, so they cannot pass the virus onto females during sex. For more information, talk to your doctor or practice nurse.
