@jeneralist@mstdn.science I wouldn’t expect the #bbc to mention this but it is not news. Cervical cancer vaccines have been
routine in #scotland since 2008.

@peterbrown@mastodon.scot @jeneralist@mstdn.science Here in Norway they started giving the HPV vaccine to girls in Year 7 from 2009. Since 2018 it has been part of the standard vaccination package for all children in Norway, that is both boys and girls. It is good to see some actual research that shows how effective it is.
