Improving human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates is a public health priority and a crucial cancer prevention goal. We designed a survey to estimate HPV vaccination coverage and understand factors associated with HPV vaccination among American Indian adolescents aged 9 to 17 years in Cherokee Nation, United States. The final survey contains 37 questions across 10 content areas, including HPV vaccination awareness, initiation, reasons, recommendations, and beliefs. This process paper provides an overview of the survey development. We focus on the collaborative process of a tribal-academic partnership and discuss methodological decisions regarding survey sampling, measures, testing, and administration.

Introduction: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been implicated in autoimmune processes, yet concerns remain about the potential autoimmune risks of HPV vaccination. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a chronic autoimmune condition that typically manifests in childhood. The relationship between HPV vaccination and the development of JIA remains uncertain.

Overview: We analysed Australian Immunisation Register (AIR) data, predominantly for National Immunisation Program funded vaccines, as at 2 April 2023 for children, adolescents and adults, focusing on the calendar year 2022 and on trends from previous years. This report aims to provide comprehensive analysis and interpretation of vaccination coverage data to inform immunisation policy and programs.
Children: Fully vaccinated coverage in Australian children in 2022 was 0.

Purpose: Expanding high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine coverage in resource-constrained settings is critical to bridging the cervical cancer gap and achieving the global action plan for elimination. Mobile health (mHealth) technology via short message services (SMS) has the potential to improve HPV vaccination uptake. The mHealth-HPVac study evaluated the effectiveness of mHealth interventions in increasing HPV vaccine uptake among mothers of unvaccinated girls aged 9-14 years in Lagos, Nigeria.
