🪷WORLD HPV DAY – Prevent HPV. Prevent Cancer.🪷

Did you know that HPV is responsible for around 630,000 cancer diagnoses worldwide each year?

Human papillomavirus (HPV) doesn’t just cause cervical cancer — it is linked to multiple cancers affecting both women and men:

🔹 99% of cervical cancers are caused by HPV
🔹 90% of a**l cancers are caused by HPV
🔹 1 in 3 head & neck cancers are linked to HPV
🔹4 in 5 vaginal cancers are caused by HPV
🔹 ~half of vulvar cancers are linked to HPV
🔹 ~half of pe**le cancers are caused by HPV

The good news?
✨ We have the tools to prevent HPV-related cancers.

Through:
✔️ Vaccination (ideally ages 9–14, boys & girls)
✔️ Cervical cancer screening
✔️ Timely treatment of precancerous lesions

We could eliminate almost all cases of cervical cancer and dramatically reduce other HPV-related cancers.

At The Lotus Cancer Initiative Inc., we are committed to prevention, early detection, and saving lives across Guyana.

This :
📌 Learn the facts.
📌 Check vaccine status.
📌 Encourage screening.
📌 Be part of cancer prevention.

Because prevention is powerful. 🪷

You can still get cervical cancer although you are vaccinated. However, the risk is significantly less. This means that you will still need to be screened for Cervical Cancer despite having been vaccinated.

✨ Updated Evidence on HPV Vaccination ✨
The latest Cochrane findings reinforce what we’ve been advocating at The Lotus Cancer Initiative: HPV vaccination is one of the most powerful tools we have to prevent cervical cancer.

Here’s what the new evidence shows:

💛 Up to 80% reduction in cervical cancer when the vaccine is given at age 16 or younger.
🌸 Significant drop in precancerous cervical changes (CIN2+ and CIN3+).
🌿 Lower rates of HPV infection and anogenital warts among vaccinated individuals.
🛡️ Excellent safety profile — no increase in serious or long-term side effects.

This is why Lotus continues to champion HPV education, access, and vaccination for girls and boys across Guyana.
