人乳头瘤病毒（HPV）疫苗接种建议在11-12岁时进行常规接种。然而，这种疫苗的接种率低于其他常规推荐用于青少年的疫苗（MCV 4和Tdap）。了解父母对HPV疫苗的看法与其他疫苗相比，可能有助于制定增加接种的策略。父母和照顾者（n=45）的青少年年龄在10-18岁的低收入，少数民族人口参加了定性研究。采访被逐字转录和编码的紧急主题。许多参与者认为HPV疫苗与其他常规疫苗相似。值得注意的相似之处包括疫苗预防疾病的能力，相似的给药方法以及对医疗保健提供者建议的信任。一些家长指出，HPV疫苗在预防癌症方面有更大的好处，癌症被视为一种严重的疾病。父母还注意到HPV的不同传播方式（性），这引起了不同的意见。总的来说，大多数参与者对HPV疫苗持积极态度，与其他青少年疫苗相似，具有预防癌症的额外益处。平等对待所有三种疫苗的策略，例如将它们类似地作为“捆绑”提供给父母或考虑入学要求等政策举措，可能有助于提高HPV疫苗的覆盖率。
Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination is recommended for routine administration at ages 11–12 years. However, uptake is lower than for other vaccines that are also routinely recommended for adolescents (MCV4 and Tdap). Understanding parental perceptions of HPV vaccine compared to other vaccines may help to inform strategies to increase uptake. Parents and caregivers (n=45) of adolescents ages 10–18 years from a low-income, ethnic minority population participated in a qualitative study. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and coded for emergent themes. Many participants perceived the HPV vaccine to be similar to other routine vaccines. Noted similarities included the vaccines' ability to prevent disease, similar methods of administration, and belief in health care providers’ recommendation. Some parents noted the greater benefit of HPV vaccine in preventing cancer, which was viewed as a serious disease. Parents also noted the different mode of transmission (sexual) for HPV, which evoked mixed opinions. Overall, most participants viewed the HPV vaccine in a positive light and similar to other adolescent vaccines with the added benefit of cancer prevention. Strategies that treat all three vaccines equally such as presenting them similarly as a ‘bundle’ to parents or considering policy initiatives such as school entry requirements might help increase raise coverage for HPV vaccine.
