Riley Burnside & Niki Messmore, M.S.Ed.: For rural and urban groups, receiving a HCP's recommendation to get vaccinated is significantly associated with vaccine uptake. In one study, at least 70% of participants who received a HCP's recommendation to get vaccinated initiated vaccination. #NHPVC25

Gregory D. Zimet, PHD & Amy B. Middleman, MD, MSEd, MPH, FSAHM, FAAP: Though there was overall preference for current recommended schedule & the new proposed schedule was least preferred, it's still possible that parents would accept a shift to initiating HPV vaccination at ages 9-10 yrs. #NHPVC25

Mary A. Gerend, PhD, FSU College of Medicine: HPV cancer survivor narratives may be a promising intervention strategy for increasing HPV vaccine coverage. A narrative message detailing a parent's experience with an HPV cancer significantly outperformed the control message. #NHPVC25
Heather N. Owens, PhD, Moffitt Cancer Center, Adolescent and young adult cancer survivors have an increased risk for secondary HPV-related cancers. Targeted interventions are needed to increase HPV vaccination in adult cancer survivors. #NHPVC25
Univ of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio: National data show that only 15.6% of mid-adults have ever been vaccinated against HPV. This suggests that the guideline could apply to a large group of unvaccinated adults in the United States. #NHPVC25

Mandy Dempsey, Kunal Saxena, Mona Saraiya, Merck & Co: Few major US medical societies/orgs have provided add'l guidance on implementation of SCDM for adult HPV vaccination beyond that provided by ACIP. Suggests a need for clarity on how to best implement SCDM in general adult populations. #NHPVC25
Dr. Jennifer Isher-Witt, Mission HPV Cancer Free, Systems are capable of tracking HPV initiation rates for ages 9-10. Returning partners generally have higher average baseline HPV initiation rates for ages 9-10 than new partners in the same project year. #NHPVC25
