HPV Vaccination Coverage, Girls
8 years, 2018–2025 · 158 countries
This is the share of girls in the national target group who received the final scheduled dose of the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine during the year. The vaccine prevents the infections behind most cervical cancer, which is why WHO counts vaccinating 90% of girls by age 15 as one of the three targets for eliminating the disease.
This site holds every year from 2018 to 2025, read from WUENIC’s own data and stored exactly as published.

Precision
The headline is stored in whole numbers, as published.
Rounded by this site
Never. Tables on screen may show fewer decimals; the files never do.
Changed by this site
Reshaped into one row per country: regional and income-group totals are left out, only the columns listed are kept, each row gets its ISO 3166 code, and some country names are brought to one spelling. No value is recalculated, rescaled or rounded.
From the WHO/UNICEF estimates of national HPV immunization coverage, read from UNICEF's data warehouse. WHO and UNICEF publish several HPV measures; this one is the final-dose coverage of girls in each programme's target group, and it differs from other HPV figures in circulation.
