'Global elimination of cervical cancer is 'within reach'
https://www.scimex.org/newsfeed/global-elimination-of-cervical-cancer-is-within-reach







 













In May 2018, the Director General of WHO , World Health Organization, called for coordinated action globally to eliminate this highly preventable cancer. The findings from the Lancet study has helped inform initial discussions of elimination targets as part of the development of the WHO strategy, and future modeling studies will support the development of the final goals and targets for cervical cancer elimination.
WHO has called for urgent action to scale up implementation of proven measures towards achieving the elimination of cervical cancer as a global public health problem (including vaccination against HPV screening and treatment of pre-cancer, early detection and prompt treatment of early invasive cancers and palliative care). A draft global strategy to accelerate cervical cancer elimination, with goals and targets for the period 2020-2030, will be considered at the World Health Assembly in 2020.
 
In January 2019 and 2020, digital media author of thesurvivordiva.com, Angela Reese, participated in the three day online webinar series 'Us vs HPV'.  A collaboration on a week-long educational webinar series on HPV prevention which was presented in honor of Cervical Health Awareness Month by The Global Initiative against HPV and Cervical Cancer (GIAHC), in partnership with the American Medical Women's Association (AMWA) and Indiana University.

Answering the call to action in Pennsylvania, Angela Reese is leading the charge for the area by urging others to meet regularly as part of the PA. Cervical Cancer Collective For Global Elimination to implement recommended strategies to achieve the result of cervical cancer being eliminated as a public health problem.

Contact Angela at differentlyablediva@gmail.com for more information about how you can be a part of eliminating cervical cancer. And also to host a CCC meeting.

Be a Champion, too!

"I am a Champion! I am a fighter! Fighting for my own life as well as the lives of others. So that no one else has to go through all I have suffered through and endured fighting this preventable, treatable, curable cancer'", says THE SURVIVOR DIVA, Angela Reese.

The mission at Global Initiative Against HPV and Cervical Cancer is to eliminate cervical cancer! As a GIAHC Champion, it is my endeavor to share my passion for sharing education about Cervical Cancer, HPV and related cancers.

Global strategy to accelerate the elimination of cervical cancer as a public health problem
 

Overview

This global strategy to eliminate cervical cancer proposes:

  • a vision of a world where cervical cancer is eliminated as a public health problem;

  • a threshold of 4 per 100 000 women-years for elimination as a public health problem; 

  • the following 90-70-90 targets that must be met by 2030 for countries to be on the path towards cervical cancer elimination:

  • 90% of girls fully vaccinated with HPV vaccine by age 15 years.

  • 70% of women are screened with a high-performance test by 35 years of age and again by 45 years of age

  • 90% of women identified with cervical disease receive treatment (90% of women with precancer treated, and 90% of women with invasive cancer managed).

  • a mathematical model that illustrates the following interim benefits of achieving the 90-70-90 targets by 2030 in low- and lower-middle-income countries:

  • median cervical cancer incidence rate will fall by 42% by 2045, and by 97% by 2120, averting more than 74 million new cases of cervical cancer;

  • median cumulative number of cervical cancer deaths averted will be 300 000 by 2030, over 14 million by 2070, and over 62 million by 2120.
