January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month 🎗️ 🌎 Cervical cancer is on the path to becoming the first cancer ever eliminated through prevention! The World Health Organization (WHO), alongside United Nations agencies, is leading the charge with the Cervical Cancer Elimination Initiative—a global effort to end this deadly disease. 🩺 Cervical cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide, claiming 350,000 lives in 2022. 💉 HPV vaccination is critical, as types 16 and 18 cause 90% of cases. WHO’s goal is to vaccinate 90% of girls aged 9-14 to prevent new infections.

A new research study from Karolinska Institutet shows that one or two doses of the HPV vaccine may be as effective as three for girls under 17 for cervical cancer prevention. This study, based on data from over 2.2 million Swedish girls and women strengthens World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations to simplify vaccination protocols.

Reducing the number of vaccine doses could improve accessibility globally, especially in low- and middle-income countries where the burden is highest.

🎗️ Let's talk about Cervical Cancer this month! 🎗️ Did you know❓ Nearly 90% of cervical cancer cases are caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infections. Yet early detection and vaccination can make a life-saving difference. As a preventable and treatable disease, Cervical Cancer remains a public health challenge, particularly in low-resource settings.   👉 How Can We Make a Difference? ✅ Early Detection: HPV DNA and Pap Smear tests are essential tools for early diagnosis. ✅ Vaccination: Protect against the most common cancer-causing HPV types. ✅ Comprehensive Screening Programs: Vital in reducing mortality rates.   We envision a future where cervical cancer becomes the first eliminated cancer type. Let’s raise awareness, promote vaccination, and encourage routine screenings to protect future generations.   #CervicalCancerAwarenessMonth #HPV #Prevention #WomensHealth

Raising awareness, driving change! Today, I proudly wear the **Cervical Cancer Awareness** badge as we organize an impactful program to educate, empower, and encourage early detection. In Bangladesh, **cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among women**, with **over 8,000 new cases and nearly 5,000 deaths annually**. The sad reality is that **most cases are preventable** through HPV vaccination and regular screening. Cervical cancer is not just a women’s issue—it’s a societal concern. As sons, husbands, fathers, and brothers, we must **support awareness, advocate for vaccinations, and encourage regular screenings** for the women in our lives. At **P2P Healthcare**, we believe in proactive healthcare and collective responsibility. Let’s break the silence, spread awareness, and protect lives—because prevention starts with knowledge! 💙💜 #CervicalCancerAwareness #MenForWomen’sHealth #P2PHealthcare

🌸 Together Against Cervical Cancer: Awareness, Prevention, and Action 🌸 This Cervical Cancer Awareness Week ,(January 22nd to January 28th, 2025) let’s come together to spread knowledge, empower individuals, and take action against one of the most preventable cancers affecting women globally. Cervical cancer is primarily caused by persistent infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV), which is preventable through vaccination and regular screening. Yet, many women remain unaware of these life-saving interventions. 👉 Here’s how we can make a difference: Promote HPV Vaccination: Vaccinating girls and young women can drastically reduce the risk of cervical cancer. Encourage Regular Screening: Pap smears and HPV tests are critical for early detection. Educate on Prevention: Awareness about safe practices, healthy lifestyles, and early symptoms can save lives. Advocate for Equity: Ensuring access to these preventive measures for everyone, especially in underserved communities, is essential to eliminating cervical cancer disparities. Together, we can work towards the WHO's goal to eliminate cervical cancer as a public health problem by achieving 90-70-90 targets (90% HPV vaccination, 70% screening coverage, 90% access to treatment). 💙 Let’s support women’s health and well-being. #CervicalCancerAwareness #PreventionIsBetterThanCure #PublicHealth #HPVVaccine #WomensHealth #WHO #CDC #MoHFW

As I walked into office today, I was pleasantly surprised to find a teal ribbon along with a letter on my desk — a thoughtful reminder that January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. Cervical cancer, though not talked about much, is the second most common cancer amongst women in India with nearly 1.2 lakh new cases registered each year. It is also the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women in India, accounting for ~25% of all global cervical cancer deaths. What’s worse? The disease is largely preventable. The silver lining? This disease is largely preventable! While regular Pap smears are essential for early detection, the HPV vaccine offers over 90% effectiveness when administered before exposure—particularly in young girls aged 9–14. While effectiveness reduces after this age, the vaccine continues to provide some degree of protection if administered under the age of 45. (Source: https://lnkd.in/g3bg9f4H) This is a call to action for all of us. Let’s spread the word, protect our loved ones, and take a step towards eradicating cervical cancer. Encourage vaccination, especially for your daughters, and remind your friends and family about the importance of screenings. Together, we can make a difference. Pass it on for Health—because prevention saves lives. #CervicalCancerAwarenessMonth #PassItOnForHealth

January is Cervical Health Awareness Month. Allie Barker of alliance partner Applied Research Center of Arkansas shares why #womenshealth is a priority for #clinicaltrials: "At our dedicated clinical research site, we are driven by a profound commitment to empower women through access to innovative clinical trials. As we observe Cervical Health Awareness Month, we recognize the importance of understanding and addressing the unique health challenges women face. By providing these opportunities, we aim to not only advance medical research but also to give women a voice in their health journey, ensuring that their needs and experiences shape the future of cervical health." More than 14,000 women in the United States are diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer each year, but the disease is preventable with vaccination and appropriate screening. Vaccines. Pap tests. HPV tests. Three tools that can block nearly every case of cervical cancer.

🌍 The World Health Organization (WHO) has an ambitious and achievable plan to eliminate cervical cancer as a global public health problem. Here’s the timeline and strategy: 2020: The WHO launched the Global Strategy to Accelerate the Elimination of Cervical Cancer. The goal? To reduce cases to fewer than 4 per 100,000 women per year. 🎯 2030 Targets: By this milestone year, every country should aim to achieve: ✅ 90% of girls fully vaccinated with the HPV vaccine by age 15 ✅ 70% of women screened for cervical cancer with a high-performance test by age 35 and again by age 45 ✅ 90% of women diagnosed with cervical disease receiving treatment 🔬 What It Means: If we can achieve these targets, cervical cancer could be virtually eliminated within the next century! It’s not just a dream—it’s a reality within our grasp, thanks to advancements in vaccines, screenings, and treatments. 💡 How You Can Help: ✔️ Vaccinate your children against HPV at age 9-12 ✔️ Get screened regularly for cervical cancer ✔️ Spread awareness and advocate for access to vaccines and screenings worldwide Together, we can create a future where cervical cancer is a thing of the past!❤️ • • • • • #EndCervicalCancer #HPVAwareness #CervicalHealth #HPV #hpvvaccine #WHO #healthmatters #vaccineswork #GlobalHealth World Health Organization

🎗️ January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer in women aged 15–44 in Europe, but the good news is that it’s largely preventable. Vaccinating pre-teen girls and boys against the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) offers safe, effective, and long-lasting protection against infections and diseases caused by HPV, including cervical cancer. Through the #EUCancerPlan, we’re committed to expanding routine HPV vaccination for both girls and boys, reducing the burden of this disease and helping save lives across Europe. Let’s work together to raise awareness of the benefits of vaccination and build a healthier future for all. 💪 Get vaccinated: Get protected Learn more about our efforts in cancer prevention: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eGT6uPQd #HealthUnion
