Majority of parents support HPV vaccination requirements for school, but with opt-outs

(UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center) A national survey found that parents were more likely to agree that laws requiring students to be vaccinated against HPV for school entry are a 'good idea' when there is an opt-out clause. This provision, said the University of North Carolina researchers, could make the laws far less effective. It also means physicians and other health care providers are key to improving HPV vaccination rates.
