Summary
This large study of nearly 28,000 girls aged 12-16 tests whether a single dose of the HPV vaccine works as well as the standard two doses. HPV causes almost all cervical cancers, but many countries can't afford or manage multiple doses. If one dose is enough, it could make vaccination much easier and cheaper, potentially saving many lives.
