  • S4 Ep188: The Case for HPV (and Other) Vaccinations in Women Over 45 with Vivien Brown
    Nov 13 2025
    Human Papillomavirus, or HPV, is responsible for 6 different kinds of cancers…Cervical, anal, oral pharyngeal, vaginal, vulvar, and penile. So, it was a big deal when the HPV vaccine was approved in 2006 females between the ages of 9 and 26. In 2018, the age range was expanded to include adults up to the age of 45. But, what about women over 45? Shouldn’t they have the option of getting a vaccine that prevents 90% of HPV related cancers? My guest is Dr. Vivien Brown, an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto with a special interest in Adult Immunization and Vaccine Preventable Illness. Dr. Brown presented HPV initiatives in Canada at the UN meetings for the Commission on the Status of Women.
