Sammanfattning
The aim of this article is to explore and understand information about HPVprevention
from several positions to grasp its social and cultural meanings.
The material consists of interviews with two school nurses, material on HPVvaccine
from Swedish newspapers (Dagens Nyheter, Svenska Dagbladet,
Sydsvenskan), and information from public authorities and pharmaceutical
companies. In the analysis of the decision to include the vaccine in the national
vaccination program for girls and of different enactments including parents
decision, the school nurses work during the vaccination-cycle and the
media coverage of the vaccine, several sometimes contradicting understandings
emerge of the relationships between: society and individual, school
healthcare and home, adult and child, and boys and girls. HPV-prevention
can fruitfully be understood in these intersections.
