HPV vaccination programs significantly decrease HPV infections and cervical lesions among girls and women, as well as anogenital wart diagnoses among girls, women, boys and men, according to a systematic review and meta-analysis published in The Lancet. "Our results provide strong evidence of HPV vaccination working to prevent cervical cancer in real-world settings, as both high-risk HPV infection and precancerous cervical lesions are significantly declining," study author Marc Brisson, Ph.D., from Université Laval, Quebec, Canada, told Infectious Diseases in Children. "Our results can be used by clinicians to illustrate the real-world impact of HPV vaccination outside the very controlled settings of randomized trials."

For the first time, there is worldwide data available on the utilization of the human papillomavirus vaccine, which protects both females and males from cancer. As of 2018, 90 countries had introduced the HPV vaccine into their national vaccination programs, the World Health Organization reported.
