Knowledge, attitude, and perception of the parents toward HPV vaccine administration to their children in Saudi Arabia: a cross-sectional study
This study showed lack of knowledge by the public in Saudi Arabia regarding HPV infection and its associated risks, which may have been associated with hesitancy to vaccinate their children. Healthcare providers are encouraged to educate their patients and the public about HPV and the importance of the vaccine in media outlets and in their practice.
