The Department ofHealth of the Basque Government will launch a new human papillomavirus vaccination campaign for boys , which will begin in January 2027 and will target men born in 2008 and those born between 2009 and 2014 and not vaccinated.
As a novelty, the Department of Health will send SMS to report on the campaign, which will also be carried out for the first time in health centres (those over 12 years of age will be vaccinated in schools).
Basque girls have been vaccinated against GPB since 2007 and in 2024 12-year-old boys were also vaccinated because theywere found to have the highest protection when both sexes are vaccinated.
The main route for infecting the papiloma virus is sexual contact, but Osakidetza includes it in the vaccination schedule because GPB is associated with cervical cancer .
