The Health Minister of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Stefanie Drese from the SPD, is a strong proponent of vaccinations. She claims that these preventive measures have been proven to be highly effective and safe in reducing infections, which lead to various illnesses. This bold statement was made in anticipation of the upcoming 8th National Vaccination Conference set for June 13th and 14th in Rostock. Close to 250 scientists, doctors, and politicians are expected to attend this event.

In light of the heated debates about vaccinations during the Corona pandemic, it's imperative to disseminate information and emphasize the immense benefits of vaccinations for the entire society. Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is focusing on the HPV vaccination for both boys and girls in the realm of vaccination education. This specific vaccination aids in preventing cervical cancer, which is caused by HPV viruses.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has set an ambitious target of having an HPV vaccination rate of 90% for 15-year-old girls and a substantial rise in vaccination rates for boys in the European Union (EU) by 2030. Articulating her optimism, Drese remarked that they're on the right track to accomplishing this. The HPV vaccination rate among 15-year-old girls in the state stands at about 72%, which is 20 percentage points higher than the national average. Additionally, almost half of the boys are now protected by the HPV vaccine.

Drese attributes this positive shift to the collaboration of the State Health Office with schools in regards to vaccination education. By educating young individuals about vaccinations, they can spread awareness, discuss them with their families, and potentially motivate them to seek such vaccinations. One of the topics that will be discussed at the National Vaccination Conference is how HPV vaccination rates can be further increased.
