A study evaluating HPV vaccine uptake among unvaccinated patients between the ages of 18 and 35 of a mobile health clinic serving the Mississippi Delta.
This study is intended to serve several purposes. The first is to determine whether patients between the ages of 18 and 35 visiting a mobile health clinic or brick and mortar clinic in the Mississippi Delta who have not received the HPV vaccine or have not completed the vaccine series are receptive to receiving it while seeking care. The second purpose is to determine whether those patients who initially decline the HPV vaccine are interested in receiving it after being counseled about HPV and the potential effects of the virus. The third purpose is to assess whether there is a statistically significant difference between the type of visit people who opt to receive the vaccine are making to the clinics. Finally, the knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions around HPV and the HPV vaccine will be assessed via group interviews with eligible participants at the conclusion of the study.
The study also includes two secondary objectives. The first is to assess whether adults who are not vaccinated against HPV are interested in receiving it. The second is to assess whether adults accurately recall whether they received a specific vaccine during childhood. The implications from these two objectives have the potential to influence policy changes regarding vaccine catch-up among adults and health communication practices as young adults transition out of pediatric care.
Anyone between the ages of 18 and 35 whose vaccination status can be verified is eligible to be enrolled in this study.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|

| Counseling effectiveness | Determine whether a 3-5 minute education session on HPV and HPV-related diseases for people who decline initial vaccination changes their vaccination intentions. | one year |
| Visit differences | Determine whether a significant difference exists between the type of visit (SRH versus primary care) patients who decide to become vaccinated made to the clinic. | one year |
| Prior information | Examine how access to and prior information given on the HPV vaccine, as well as risk assessment for HPV infection versus vaccination, among unvaccinated adults between 18 and 35, addresses vaccine discordancy and affects the decision to become vaccinated as an adult. | one year |
