Human papillomavirus genotypes in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia: prevalence and public health implications
These findings highlight the importance of continued surveillance, targeted vaccination efforts, and improved screening programs in Saudi Arabia. Increasing awareness of HPV and enhancing vaccination rates, especially among younger age groups, could significantly reduce the burden of HPV-related diseases. Future research should focus on broader epidemiological factors and evaluate the impact of HPV vaccination programs on genotype distribution and prevalence trends.
