can someone explain why you need 3 shots of gardasil 9 instead of 2 shots when you are older? and will you already have some level of protection if you have gotten 1 or 2 shots?
If you don't go back, the scheme won't be complete, and in order for the vaccine to work, you'll have to start the scheme all over again. @sugaplumalex
The reason why after 15 yo you need to get 3 doses is because of the immune system response. After 15, it is not as efficient as it was before, so to get the protection, you gotta get 3 shots.
So if you’re 50, does it make sense to get vaccinated?
that is correct. you can always check with your primary care provider, but typically it is recommended for under 26 years of age.

You need to complete the whole scheme to be protected.
