Ministry of Health

In 2017, free HPV immunisations were extended to boys for the first time, with about two thirds of parents choosing to immunise their children through their school immunisation programme.

HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop. The viruses are mostly transmitted in adolescence but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they’re young.

Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV in their lifetime. Immunisation can significantly reduce HPV-related harm. Protecting all children before they’re exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.

Free HPV immunisation at school or from your GP. For more info visit: www.health.govt.nz/hpv

Poll: Would you spend a weekend in the garden to grow a season's worth of veges?

Jo Haywood Reporter from Homed

Gardener Lynda Hallinan couldn't quite believe it when she found out her grandfather used to spend one day in the garden every September, to produce enough veges to feed his family of eight for the summer. So she put his method to the test.
