The #HPV #vaccine 💉 has been around for almost two decades. Now, we're starting to see the tremendous impact on cervical #cancer we'd all hoped for. Complements previous UK analysis in @thelancet.bsky.social estimating a 97% reduction in cervical cancer for cohorts offered HPV vaccine @ 12–13y.

For folks looking for a news resource about pediatric science and innovation, check out the Research Horizons blog from Cincinnati Children's. scienceblog.cincinnatichildrens.org Subscribers can get regular updates delivered via email. And from time to time we'll post links on Bluesky as well.
Sriansh, shown at age 3 smiling in a swing at his home in Lexington, Ky., is the youngest child in the world to receive life-transforming gene therapy for the rare condition AADC. Experts at Cincinnati Children's modified the clinical trial protocol to make the procedure possible for the boy when he was just 16 months old.
