Adult Vaccination – HPV (Human Papillomavirus Vaccine)
JadeCure provides HPV vaccination to protect against Human Papillomavirus infections, which are linked to cervical cancer, genital warts, and certain throat cancers. The vaccine is most effective when given before exposure to the virus but can benefit adults as well.

The HPV vaccine helps the body build immunity against high-risk strains of the virus that cause most cases of cervical, anal, and throat cancers, as well as low-risk strains responsible for genital warts.
