Region Dalarna offers free HPV vaccine to young men

Region Dalarna is now providing free HPV vaccine to men aged 18 to 26. The offer targets those born between 2000 and 2008, six years after boys were first recommended to vaccinate against the HPV virus.

Region Dalarna announced in a press release that free HPV vaccine is available to men between 18 and 26 years old. This applies to individuals born between 2000 and 2008.

It has been six years since the recommendation was introduced for boys to vaccinate against the HPV virus. The region is now expanding access for the affected age group.

The HPV vaccine protects against human papillomavirus, which can lead to certain cancers. Region Dalarna states that the opportunity is open to those who missed earlier vaccinations.
