Vaccines

  • Mpox vaccine

  • Mpox (formally Monkey pox) is an infection that causes high fever, muscle and joint aches, severe
    headache and painful skin blisters. You can protect yourself with two doses of vaccine given at least
    one month apart.

    Hepatitis B

  • Hepatitis B is x100 more infectious than HIV. That means it’s much easier to pick up during sex. The
    virus infects the liver. People can feel very unwell and develop jaundice (yellowing of the skin). Most
    people recover but about 1 in 10 don’t clear the infection. This can lead to liver scaring (cirrhosis)
    and liver failure. You can protect yourself with a course of 3-4 injections.

    HPV vaccine

  • There are over 70 different strains of human papilloma virus (HPV). Gardasil vaccine protects against
    strains linked to cancer (e.g. Throat & anus) and those that cause genital warts. Since 2019 it’s been
    offered to boys at school. That means men aged less than 18 may already be protected.
    Under 25yrs olds one dose

    Gonorrhoea (Bexsero)

  • Gonorrhoea can infect the penis, throat & rectum. Less commonly it can affect the eyes or testicles.
    Bexsero was originally developed to provide protection against meningitis B. However it also reduces
    the chance of catching gonorrhoea by around 40%. Bexsero involves two doses given at least a
    month apart

    Hepatitis A

  • Hepatitis A virus also infects the liver and can cause similar symptoms to Hepatitis B. It’s caught from
    food or water that’s been contaminated with faeces (shit). However it can also be caught during gay
    sex. It’s particularly recommended if you’re into rimming or scat. Protect yourself with two doses
    given 6-12 months apart.
