“The HPV vaccine cost-effective, even for the boys”

“the HPV vaccine against cancer is cost-effective, even for the boys, but the most expensive vaccine requires a discount in the procurement process. It considers Folkhälsomyndigheten which has now submitted a follow-up report to the government.”

“In day offers girls protection against the human papilloma virus (HPV) through the general vaccination programme. The vaccine protects against several forms of cancer.”

“Even the boys can be offered the vaccine in a national programme, according to a study that the authority submitted to the government in 2017. Since then, however, a new, more expensive vaccine that protects against nine types of HPV instead of two or four popped up on the market, and the government has asked the authority to supplement the decision-making basis.”
