The recent advice on vaccination against cervical cancer from the Health Council of the Netherlands and the decision by the Minister of Health, Welfare and Sport to implement the vaccination within the National Immunisation Programme by September 2009, has been criticized by a group of authors because five of seven criteria for vaccination in public programmes are considered not to have been met; notably with respect to efficacy and safety. It appears that the available scientific data have been weighted differently by the Health Council committee and the criticising group of authors. In the original advisory report, the committee of the Health Council lists all uncertainties, and argues that a linked monitoring programme will provide public vaccination with sufficient warranties for efficacy and safety. Thus, new opportunities for primary prevention can be taken, and a significant health benefit is likely to be gained. On the other hand, postponing a decision until all uncertainties have been resolved will postpone a significant potential health benefit for many years.
