HPVax Awareness Session

Overview

The Human Papilloma Virus Vaccination awareness program was scheduled at the school hall where around 150 parents, teachers and children had assembled. During the session the importance of vaccinating all eligible young girls to prevent cervical cancer was highlighted along with the importance of screening for cervical cancer regularly in women aged 30 to 60 years. Following the session there was a vigorous Q&A session and all the audiences questions were addressed. During the meeting there was also the opportunity to meet Rotarians from Rotary Club of Theni Stars, an all-womens club who have already carried out HPV vaccination for around 700 girls in the local community. Also present were members from the Inner Wheel Club of Theni who were there to take me to another event in the evening to address their club on the topic of Cancer prevention and Early detection in women.
