We compare the recent COSY data on the total $pp{\to}p\Lambda{K^+}$ and $pp{\to}p\Sigma^0{K^+}$ cross sections with the predictions from two boson exchange models that either are based solely on $\pi$ and $K$ exchange or include $\pi$, $\eta$ and $\rho$ exchange as well as the virtual excitation of intermediate baryon resonances. Both models are found to reproduce the data after the inclusion of final state hyperon-nucleon interactions. Thus, within the experimental uncertainties, both models also roughly reproduce the strong dependence of the $\Lambda$ to $\Sigma^0$ ratio as a function of the excess energy near threshold, as well as at higher energies.
