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. Immunity after taking the vaccine is long-lasting, and the level of antibodies lasts longer than after natural HPV infection.

DANGEROUS HPV VIRUS

Human papillomavirus – HPV – can lead to cervical cancer, among other things. It is the fourth most common malignant tumor in the world. Every year in Poland, cervical cancer is detected in almost 3 thousand women. Its mortality rate is estimated at 50%. HPV infection can also lead to the development of other cancers.
