Health officials in immunisation centres across Nigeria have issued renewed alerts to parents and guardians, urging them to take their kids for a human papillomavirus (HPV) checkup in any nearby immunization centre.
Confirming this development, the state immunisation officer, Akwa Ibom State, Dr. David Umoh, stated the alert is part of a nationwide sensitisation campaign designed to curb the rising burden of HPV-related diseases among adolescent females who are most vulnerable to hpv infection before the onset of sexual activity.
He further explained that the vaccine is being administered free of charge at designated health facilities across the state and country, which provides protection against high-risk strains of HPV known to cause over 70 percent of cervical cancer cases in women.
He reiterated that timely vaccination is a critical step toward reducing future cervical cancer cases and achieving the national goal of eliminating the disease.
