๐ HPV vaccines save lives by reducing cervical cancer risk.
The World Health Organization has approved multiple HPV vaccines that protect against the most common high-risk virus types:
๐ Cecolin (new, from China, WHO-approved) โ protects against types 16 & 18
๐ Gardasil โ covers types 16, 18, and also 6 & 11 (which cause ge***al warts)
๐ Gardasil-9 โ broadest protection, covering most high-risk subtypes
๐ Cervarix โ once widely used, now phased out in most countries
โ ๏ธ Side effects across vaccines are generally mild and short-lived:
slight pain at the injection site, fatigue, or low fever.
The bottom line:
HPV vaccination is a key step in eliminating cervical cancer worldwide. ๐โจ
๐ Letโs aware ourselves and move closer to a cancer-free future.
