Although the HPV vaccine that helps prevent cervical cancer was introduced in 2006, only 21% of girls had received a dose as of 2022. The reason? The initial recommendation was two or three doses of the HPV vaccine—a challenging expectation for anyone, and especially for people in communities with limited access to healthcare. The KEN SHE study, led by Dr. Ruanne Barnabas and her team, set out to determine the efficacy of a single dose HPV vaccine. What they found was one giant step forward in helping save the lives of millions of women across the globe. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/grmM9GWZ

It's heartbreaking to think that since the HPV vaccine was introduced in 2006, only 21% of girls had received a dose by 2022. The initial requirement of two or three doses posed a significant barrier, especially for those in underserved communities with limited access to healthcare. The KEN SHE study, led by the incredible Dr. Ruanne Barnabas and her dedicated team, has brought us hope. Their discovery that a single-dose HPV vaccine can be just as effective is nothing short of revolutionary. This breakthrough is a giant leap forward in our mission to save the lives of millions of women worldwide. To learn more about this life-saving research, please visit: Learn more.
