HPV VACCINE – EFFECTIVE PREVENTION

According to experts, HPV vaccination in adolescence is the most effective form of prevention. It prevents not only the development of the HPV virus in the body, but also prevents the appearance of cancer cells. Doctors emphasize that vaccination is safe and well-tolerated.
