Initial evidence of a possible effect of HPV vaccination on cancer incidence in Germany

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the more common sexually transmitted diseases in Germany. Vaccination against HPV was introduced in Germany in 2007. In this study, we sought to detect a population-based decline in the incidence of cervical cancer in women under age 30 who were eligible for vaccination in the first 11 years after its introduction.
