Changes in Genital Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Prevalence During 12 Years of Girls-Only Bivalent HPV Vaccination: Results From a Biennial Repeated Cross-sectional Study
During 12 years of girls-only bivalent HPV vaccination in the Netherlands, decreasing trends of the vaccine types and cross-protected types were observed among females. Herd protection of vaccine types was observed for HMs and unvaccinated females, and 1 cross-protected type for HMs. Increasing prevalence trends of HPV types with large phylogenetic distance to the vaccine types might indicate type replacement.
