Global Efforts Intensify to Eliminate Cervical Cancer by 2030
The World Health Organization (WHO) and global partners are intensifying efforts to eliminate cervical cancer, marked by a "Day of Action for Cervical Cancer Elimination." Initiatives include HPV vaccination campaigns, new health policies, and awareness activities across various countries. Significant progress has been made since 194 countries committed to this goal, with many adopting HPV vaccines and testing. However, challenges remain, particularly in low-income regions. WHO is also introducing new guidelines for HPV screening tests to improve accessibility and effectiveness, especially in resource-limited settings.
