Confusion over HPV jabs.
immunisation
Adam Legge
There is widespread confusion over who will carry out next year's human papillomavirus vaccine (HPV) campaign in teenage girls.
Last week the DoH agreed 'in principle' with the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation's (JCVI) recommendation that girls aged 12 and 13 years should be offered the vaccine, which protects against HPV strains accounting for 70% of cervical cancers.
The Government will now consider how to fund it, although the JCVI's analysis is based on the programme being carried out in schools.
But school nurse leaders have warned the workforce is simply not there to manage such a huge annual vaccination programme.
Ros Godson, professional officer for school and public health at the Community Practitioners' and Health Visitors' Association, said the union was yet to have any discussion with the DoH about HPV, despite making approaches earlier this year.
