HPV vaccination intention among guardians of male junior high school students in Chongqing, China
This study suggests that guardians in Chongqing have a high willingness to vaccinate their sons against HPV, and vaccine knowledge is one of the influencing factors. However, concerns about vaccine safety and efficacy remain significant barriers to vaccine acceptance. Awareness of the HPV vaccine should be improved, especially in groups with limited knowledge, through targeted educational campaigns and advice from healthcare professionals to address vaccine hesitancy.
