HPV Vaccine: Science Debunks Social Media Myths Amid India's Rollout
•India launches nationwide HPV vaccination campaign amidst social media misinformation regarding safety, fertility, and dosage.
•Medical experts confirm current anxieties are 'recycled misinformation' not supported by decades of scientific evidence and large population studies.
•WHO now endorses a single HPV vaccine dose for 9-14 year olds, simplifying implementation and improving coverage.
•Extensive global data over 15 years show no link between HPV vaccination and infertility, autoimmune disorders, or neurological conditions.
•Studies confirm significant, long-term reduction in invasive cervical cancer risk, especially with adolescent vaccination; screening alone is insufficient.
