Regarding the HPV vaccine, which statement is TRUE?

Per current ACIP/CDC guidance, patients who start the HPV vaccine series before their 15th birthday only need 2 doses (spaced 6-12 months apart); those starting at 15 or older need 3 doses. The vaccine DOES help prevent HPV-related oropharyngeal/oral cancers (FDA-approved indication), it is not simply given 'anytime in life' without age-based dosing/shared decision-making considerations (routine ages 11-12, catch-up to 26, shared decision-making to 45), and interrupting the series does NOT require restarting — you simply continue from where you left off.
