Knowledge of 18-19 Years Old About Papillomavirus and HPV Vaccination (CO-HPV)

February 10, 2026 updated by: Université de Reims Champagne-Ardenne

Today, cancers associated with papillomavirus infection affect 6,300 new people each year in France, men and women combined. The papillomavirus vaccine is currently the only vaccine that protects against HPV-associated cancers. However, in its report on vaccination coverage for 2024, Santé Publique France reveals that 41.5% and 37.4% of the 18- and 19-year-old French population respectively have a complete vaccination schedule.

Information, education and communication about HPV are essential to enable the entire population to make informed and responsible decisions about HPV.

Increasing information and immunization coverage for papillomavirus is part of the government's ambitious health plans with the national sexual health strategy and college vaccination campaign.
