📣 Grossartige Neuigkeiten! Die Beendigung durch Impfung vermeidbarer Todesfälle von HPV-bedingtem Gebärmutterhalskrebs steht im Mittelpunkt einer neuen Initiative, dem Global HPV Consortium unter der Leitung des Sabin Vaccine Institut. 👏

Das Konsortium ist ein öffentlich-privates Programm, das dem WHO-Ziel folgt und verschiedene Einrichtungen nutzt.

#HPV is a leading cause of #cervicalcancer in women, particularly in lower- and middle-income countries. #HPV vaccines can reduce #cervicalcancer rates by 87%, but only 12% of girls around the world are fully vaccinated. Here's what you need to know about HPV:

This week, we mark #CervicalCancer Prevention week!💉

In our Report on improving #CancerScreening, our scientists advise that smear tests should be replaced with testing for #HPV, the virus that causes cervical cancer, as a first line of screening!

This week is Cervical Cancer Prevention Week and the time is now to get checked out.

We have the tools to make cervical cancer a thing of the past. HPV vaccination, cervical screening, and treatment for cell changes can all help prevent it but we need to increase awareness and uptake, and the funding to do so.

Did you know that 1 in 3 women do not take up their cervical screening (smear test) invite?

Scary. One of the biggest reasons women in Desi and Arab cultures are discouraged from getting Pap smears is because of “virginity.”

Some erroneously suggest that they are only necessary after marriage (meaning once a woman is sexually active)

In fact, as a doctor in this article suggests, get tested and vaccinated against HPV *before* marriage.

#CervicalCancer Rates Have Dropped Among Young Women in the United States. Yet another vaccine (Gardasil) saves lives!

The power and successes of Vaccines are clear. Get vaccinations like for HPV done. Plain and simple.

“Cervical cancer rates dropped 65% from 2012 to 2019 among women in their early 20s after a generation of young women were vaccinated against human papillomavirus, or HPV, for the first time.”

January is #CervicalCancer awareness month!

Cervical cancer can be prevented and treated, if caught early.

✅ Get informed.
✅ Get screened.
✅ Get vaccinated.

Looking forward to reading these results (from #NatureMedicine's '11 clinical trials that will shape medicine in 2023'

"Prophylactic vaccines against human papilloma virus (HPV), first rolled out 15 years ago, protect women against cervical cancer and are now routinely offered to young girls in most high-income countries. As time moves on, more women who were vaccinated as girls become eligible for cervical cancer screening, and it is important to understand the most effective screening approaches in a vaccinated population. This trial is important, as it is the first large-scale randomized controlled trial internationally that will assess primary HPV screening in a population that is heavily vaccinated against HPV."

WHO recommends a one-dose schedule (for many people, caveats apply) for the #HPV #vaccine

https://www.who.int/news/item/20-12-2022-WHO-updates-recommendations-on-HPV-vaccination-schedule

It's such a good vaccine. Prevents #cervicalcancer (along with a range of other benefits, like reductions in oral and skin HPV infections, genital warts etc)/

Like every other routine #immunization, need to increase uptake, increase access, better understand hesitancy, better counter the #antivax lies and misinformation that is sadly prevalent.

#CervicalCancer elimination is possible even in high HIV burden settings. "Expanding coverage of HPV vaccination paired with more frequent screening of women living with HIV will be necessary."

Our model comparison exercise highlighted in #WHO news story today: https://www.who.int/news/item/17-11-2022-progress-and-pathway-towards-elimination-of-cervical-cancer-among-women-living-with-hiv/
