Article Synopsis
- In 2019, France expanded its HPV vaccination recommendations to include boys aged 11 to 19, prompting a study on how French general practitioners (GPs) adapted their vaccination practices following this change.
- A cross-sectional survey conducted between May and August 2022 revealed that 61.2% of participating GPs now systematically offer HPV vaccination to boys, compared to just 5.5% before the recommendation.
- Factors influencing this increase included the gender of the GP, with female GPs more likely to advocate for vaccination, and prior experience in proposing the vaccine before the official recommendation.
