“…1 It is offered free of charge to girls in grade 5 or 6 (girls age 11 to 12). This is similar to many other European countries, who also implemented HPV vaccination for girls as part of national vaccination programs around the same time (for example, in the UK it was introduced to girls in 2008, see Hanbury, 2017). Until 2016, girls and young women up to 20 years old were in Sweden offered the vaccine free of charge via a so-called catch-up vaccination scheme (and up to 26 years old in the county council studied in this article).…”

Social media are increasingly envisioned by public health authorities as a new promising arena for public engagement. Against this backdrop, this article attends to how citizens confirm, debate and resist governmental framings of health information online. By drawing upon STS and affect theory, it centers on the digital mediation of feelings on a Facebook engagement site for HPV vaccination. While the public authorities framed HPV vaccination as a matter of love and fear, a wide register of positive and negative feelings were mediated on the site. The article proposes the notion of ‘digitalised literary devices’ to analyse how mundane literary habits, such as the use of punctuation, online have been transformed to digital devices that, for instance, mediate public feelings. By conceptualizing public engagement as ‘civic intensities’, it shows how digital devices, such as digitalised literary devices, mediate and intensify public feelings of engagement.
