	Regional implementation framework for elimination of cervical cancer as a public health problem: 2021–2030 World Health Organisation (WHO) (2023) C_WHO View PDF(6) Download (6) Add to my MEDBOX Cervical cancer continues to be a significant public health problem and a major cause of premature mortality among women, disproportionately affecting the socioeconomically disadvantaged population in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In the absence of implementing the known evidence-based, cost-effective interventions, the number of deaths per year is projected to reach approximately 416 000 globally in 2035. It was estimated in 2020 that 32% of incident cervical cancer cases and 34% of cervical cancer deaths in the world occurred in the 11 Member States of the WHO South-East Asia (SEA) Region. In 2020, 190 874 new cases and 116 015 deaths were estimated due to cervical cancer, which is the third commonest cancer in the Regio Tags: Cervical Cancer, Public health, framework, womens health, death rates, premature mortality, Source: https://apps.who.int/iris/rest/bitstream
	HIV and cervical cancer infographic UNAIDS (2022) C_WHO View PDF(29) Download (14) Add to my MEDBOX Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted infection, and two types of HPV (16 and 18) cause nearly 50% of high-grade cervical pre-cancers.

Women living with HIV are six times more likely to develop cervical cancer, which is one of the AIDS-defining illnesses and the most common cancer among women living with HIV globally. Cervical cancer is a preventable, curable disease and can be eliminated as a public health problem with primary and secondary prevention, treatment, and care of cervical cancer, in combination with addressing social, health and other inequalities and integrated approaches Tags: Cervical Cancer, AIDS, UNAIDS, infographics, Source: https://www.unaids.org/sites/default/fil

Nearly 200 000 new cases of cervical cancer occurred in SEA Region Member States in 2008, giving an incidence of almost 25 per 100 000 and a mortality rate of almost 14 per 100 000.
