About the Catch-up Programme
The Department of Health is currently implementing a one-off Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination Catch-up Programme ("the Programme"), to offer free HPV vaccine to female Hong Kong residents born between 2004 and 2008 who have not yet completed the HPV vaccination series.
HPV vaccine effectively protects against high-risk HPV infection and strengthens immunity to prevent cervical cancer. Under the Programme, each eligible person can receive two free doses of vaccination, while immunocompromised persons have to receive three free doses of vaccination. The minimal interval recommended between two doses for immunocompetent females is at least 5 months apart, the first dose is advised to be received on or before 30 June 2026 to ensure completion within the Programme timeframe. As for immunocompromised persons, please consult your medical doctors before the HPV vaccination.
