HPV Unvaccinated Status and HPV Sexual Risk Behaviour are Common among Canadian Young Adult Women and Men.

CONCLUSION: Unvaccinated young Canadian women and men commonly engaged in sexual risk behaviours for HPV infection, engaged in sexual risk behaviours at a similar level as their vaccinated counterparts, and a substantial number were at elevated risk of HPV related morbidities at a young age. Findings contribute to an evidence-based case for redoubling efforts to encourage HPV vaccination among unvaccinated young Canadians who are at risk of HPV infection.
