HPV Vaccination Campaigns Launched in Multiple Districts to Prevent Cervical Cancer

Several districts, including Ludhiana, Nashik, and Thane, have launched HPV vaccination campaigns targeting girls aged 14 to 15 to prevent cervical cancer. These initiatives, led by local health and administrative officials, aim for widespread coverage through government health facilities and schools. The vaccine, offered free or at reduced cost, is recognized as a safe and effective preventive measure against HPV, the primary cause of cervical cancer. Authorities emphasize community participation and awareness to ensure successful implementation.
