Two HPV vaccine doses = long-lasting protection. When started before the age of 15, the HPV vaccine takes only two doses for protection from 6 types of HPV-related cancers. Talk with Panhandle Public Health District or your child’s doctor or your local pharmacist about getting the vaccine. No insurance? No problem! Children can snag the vaccine for free thanks to the Vaccine for Children’s (VFC) program.
