Impact of a Gender-Neutral HPV Vaccination Program in Men Who Have Sex with Men (MSM).

A major challenge in human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine programs is the universal gender-neutral recommendation, as well as estimation of its long-term effect. The objective of this study is to predict the added benefit of male vaccination, especially in men who have sex with men (MSM), and to analy...
