TOTALLY PREVENTABLE

Local women’s health experts are urging girls and women – particularly those aged 15 to 26 and in their reproductive years – to protect themselves against the human papillomavirus (HPV), which can cause several diseases, including cervical, vaginal, vulvar, anal and oral cancers. Cervical cancer remains the second most common cancer affecting women in Jamaica. The ICO/IARC Information Centre on HPV and Cancer notes in its 2023 Jamaica Fact Sheet that annually, some 390 new cases of cervical cancer are diagnosed in the island and nearly 250 deaths recorded.
