Although she is vaccinated, a 29-year-old French woman had part of her cervix removed following contracting the papillomavirus, a contagious sexually transmitted virus that can lead to cancer.
To reduce the risk of cancer, female college students can be vaccinated once morest human papillomavirus (HPV) which can also affect boys to whom anti-HPV vaccination is recommended, reimbursed by Social Security.
A teacher by profession, Émilie, who was vaccinated when she was a teenager, discovered traces of papillomavirus due to a rare form of the virus following examinations by her gynecologist, France 3 reported on Thursday.
The young woman then had to undergo other in-depth examinations and a surgery called “conization” with the removal of part of her uterus to fight the cancerous cells, which left her with lingering following-effects.
If Emilie is vaccinated once morest the papillomavirus, this is not the case for her spouse, which provides information on the insufficient vaccination coverage among men, 10 years following the first recommendations of the High Authority for Health.
