COPENHAGEN: Denmark aims to eradicate cervical cancer by 2040 thanks to a national HPV vaccination campaign and screening programme, the Danish Cancer Society said on Monday.
“Even before 2040, so few women may have the disease that it may be considered eradicated,” the Danish Cancer Society said in a statement. “It would be the first time a cancer has disappeared,” it said. The current cervical cancer rate in Denmark is lower than 10 out of 100,000 women, according to a study in the Danish medical journal Ugeskrift for Laeger.
