HPV vaccine knowledge gaps and vaccination intent: a cross-sectional study of vocational students in Southern Xinjiang of China in 2023
HPV awareness and vaccination uptake among female vocational students in southern Xinjiang remain low. Targeted health education initiatives should focus on non-medical students, rural populations, and individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Enhancing vaccine accessibility and affordability through institutional and governmental efforts is critical to improving vaccination coverage in this population.
