The Ministry of Health and Social Services is calling on members of the public to participate in a knowledge test and share their opinions on the proposed Human Papillomavirus (HPV) immunization program.

The HPV vaccine is a safe and effective vaccine that protects against the human papillomavirus (HPV), a common virus that can lead to several types of cancers, including cervical, vaginal, vulvar, penile, anal, and certain throat cancers, as well as genital warts.

The initiative aims to assess the public’s understanding of HPV and its implications, as well as gather feedback on the proposed vaccination program.

The Ministry is encouraging everyone to get involved and make their voice heard.

To participate, individuals can complete a short poll via SMS or WhatsApp using the provided numbers on the poster.
