The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on October 25, 2011 recommended HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccination for:
** Boys ages 11 and 12
** Males ages 13 through 21 if all three shots have not already be given
The HPV vaccination for boys were recommended against anal and throat cancers.
The same committee in 2006 recommended that all girls ages 11 to 26 should be vaccinated.
