IntroductionWomen living with HIV (WLHIV) face an increased risk of cervical cancer (CC). With inequitable HPV vaccine access and a programmatic focus on girls-only school-based delivery, many WLHIV in high HIV prevalence countries remain vulnerable to HPV infection and CC. We assessed the incremental impact of adding catch-up vaccination for WLHIV in South Africa. MethodsWe used two independently developed HPV/CC and HIV transmission models to predict the incremental impact of catch-up HPV vac...
