Article’s response: According to the article, it is recommended to extend the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination to women up to 26 years old. Currently, the vaccine is offered to girls and boys aged 11-14 years old and can be given until the age of 26 for women who did not receive the vaccine when they were younger. However, the article suggests that since nearly all women aged between 15 and 25 catch an HPV infection, it might be beneficial to extend the vaccination to this age group to reduce the risk of cervical cancer. This recommendation is based on recent studies that show that the vaccine can still prevent cervical cancer in women who were previously infected with HPV.
