Abstract
The impact of genital warts on psychological, social and sexual wellbeing is often overlooked, as is the magnitude of the problem. In 2017, the number of consultations in primary care in the Netherlands was 42,000. Real-world evidence shows compelling and impressive results regarding the reduction of genital warts in other countries. Not opting for a vaccine that also protects against genital warts is a missed opportunity for elimination of cervical cancer as well as genital warts.
