(1) Doctor of public health Michela Stillo in her review article “Safety of human papillomavirus vaccines: a review” (2015) asserts that evidence shows that despite common rumors regarding the adverse effects of vaccines, HPV vaccines are safe. Stillo cites evidence of adverse effects caused by HPV vaccines from randomly controlled trials published in peer reviewed articles. The purpose of this article is to prove that HPV vaccines are safe in order to increase vaccine coverage. The article seems to target more intellectual audiences, in hopes to arm them with information that can be provided to the laypeople.
