Getting all our Boys vaccinated

It is important that we get all our boys vaccinated against the HPV and this is not just a cancer for Girls!

Join our campaign to get ALL boys vaccinated,

Quote: ‘include boys’

Offers girls aged 12 to 17 vaccination against HPV through school as part of the drive to prevent them developing cervical cancer later in life. In view of the recent increase in OPSCCs that are HPV positive, surely the Department of Health should now review the programme and include boys!

(Daily Mail 0n 6th November 2012).

The department said vaccinating boys could not be justified on cost-benefit grounds – but that was before the scale of the rise in HPV-related throat cancer was known. The Department of Health is being urged to review the national immunisation programme against the commonest sexually transmitted infection in response to a dramatic rise in cancer linked to oral sex.

The data suggests VERY STRONGLY that vaccine will work in men
