Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are known to cause different types of cancer. Despite the Standing Committee on Vaccination (STIKO) recommending HPV vaccination for all adolescents, gaps remain in coverage. The vaccination rates in Germany have been below the target set by the World Health Organization (WHO). School vaccination programs are an effective way to ensure higher vaccination coverage among adolescents, especially within socially disadvantaged families. The Bremen Health Office has been administering HPV vaccinations in schools for over a decade and the experiences highlight the importance of collaboration with school authorities and teachers as well as overcoming language barriers. Additionally, challenges in creating clear, legally compliant educational materials are noted. The HPV vaccines are safe and can be effectively administered in schools without medical concerns. The school program's preparation, the procedure in the schools, and the follow-up are described in detail in this article. They can provide support to other public health authorities with the implementation of an HPV school vaccination program.
已知人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)会引发不同类型的癌症。尽管疫苗接种常务委员会(STIKO)建议所有青少年接种HPV疫苗,但接种覆盖率仍存在差距。德国的疫苗接种率一直低于世界卫生组织(WHO)设定的目标。学校疫苗接种计划是确保青少年,尤其是社会弱势家庭中的青少年获得更高疫苗接种覆盖率的有效途径。不来梅卫生局在学校开展HPV疫苗接种工作已有十多年,这些经验凸显了与学校当局和教师合作以及克服语言障碍的重要性。此外,还指出了在制作清晰、符合法律规定的教育材料方面存在的挑战。HPV疫苗是安全的,可以在学校有效接种,无需担心医疗问题。本文详细介绍了学校计划的准备工作、学校内的接种程序以及后续跟进情况。它们可为其他公共卫生当局实施HPV学校疫苗接种计划提供支持。
