💨 Abstract

The Parliamentary Committee on Health and Family Welfare has recommended the development of a single-dose HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer, a leading type of cancer among women in India. The committee believes a single-dose vaccine would increase successful vaccination rates and reduce cervical cancer cases. Additionally, the committee suggested steps to reduce the vaccine's cost and establish more oncopathology labs in the North Eastern Region.
