🎗️ *January is Cervical Cancer Awareness Month*

🌍💔 Cervical cancer is largely preventable — yet it still affects 660,000 women and causes 350,000 deaths every year worldwide. Most of these deaths happen in low- and middle-income countries due to limited access to vaccines, screening and treatment.

💉🩺 The cause? HPV, a very common virus. The good news: HPV vaccination and regular screening can stop cervical cancer before it starts.

🚨 Women living with HIV are 6 times more likely to develop cervical cancer — making early care even more critical.

*WHO calls on countries to reach the 90–70–90 targets by 2030:*

✅ 90% of girls vaccinated by age 15
✅ 70% of women screened by ages 35 and 45
✅ 90% treated if precancer or cancer is found

*What you can do:*

💉 Vaccinate girls aged 9–14
🩺 Get screened regularly (even if vaccinated!)
🚭 Avoid smoking
