Impact of 2-dose and 1-dose human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination schedules on community level HPV prevalence in South African adolescent girls [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Brief description Using Australian’s highly successful sentinel survey methodology for measuring human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, we will evaluate the impact of 2-dose and 1-dose vaccination schedules on HPV prevalence in South African adolescent girls. Findings will inform population effectiveness of HPV vaccine in a country with extreme socioeconomic diversity, and high incidence of HIV infection, and have the potential to greatly accelerate vaccine uptake in the region.
