HPV疫苗有望纳入国家免疫规划，专家预计免费将优先覆盖重点人群

Core Viewpoint - The introduction of the first domestic nine-valent HPV vaccine and its expanded vaccination range marks a significant step towards increasing accessibility and affordability of HPV vaccines in China, potentially leading to a "cervical cancer elimination" strategy [3][5]. Group 1: HPV Vaccine Market Overview - Currently, there are six approved HPV vaccines in China, with three being imported and three domestic. The market has been dominated by imported products, particularly Merck's and GSK's vaccines, which accounted for over 90% of the market share [3]. - The entry of domestic vaccines, such as those from Wantai Biological Pharmacy, has led to a decrease in prices and improved accessibility for the population [3]. Group 2: National Immunization Planning - The recent announcement by the State Council to include HPV vaccines in the national immunization program is expected to enhance vaccination rates, as evidenced by international examples where such programs have been implemented [3][4]. - As of now, specific implementation details regarding the national immunization plan for HPV vaccines have not been disclosed, but experts anticipate a phased approach prioritizing key demographics [5]. Group 3: Target Demographics and Public Health Strategy - University students are identified as a key demographic for HPV prevention, as proactive measures during this stage can yield high health investment returns [5]. - The importance of "gender-neutral vaccination" is emphasized, as studies indicate that widespread vaccination can significantly reduce cervical cancer cases and provide indirect protection to partners through herd immunity [6].
