Fifth graders have been able to get vaccinated against papillomavirus at school since October. However, less than 10% of students did so, out of a target of 30%. A low rate explained by doctor and journalist Damien Mascret, present on the set of 20 Heures, Tuesday December 12.

Since October, fifth grade students have been able to get vaccinated against the papillomavirus for free at school, but they are not crowding in front of the infirmary. Less than 10% of students have been vaccinated. “The goal was at least 30 %”, recalls the doctor and journalist Damien Mascret, present on the set of 20 Heures, Tuesday December 12. How to explain this low rate? Damien Mascret indicates that this vaccination is not compulsory, and that there is therefore less support.

A drama “from the start of the campaign”

The journalist and doctor also recalls that, “from the start of the campaign”a child from Loire-Atlantique died due to head trauma, because he had a fall caused by discomfort during this vaccination. “Obviously, it is not the vaccine that is to blame, but it still led private education to suspend its vaccination campaign”, reports the journalist and doctor. However, in England, where vaccination coverage is 80%, the risk of uterine cancer was reduced by 87% among girls vaccinated at 12-13 years old.
