By 2035, Australia wants to get rid of cervical cancer

Australian scientists have made a breakthrough in the fight against cervical cancer. Due to the indiscriminate vaccination is expected that Australia will become the first country in the world to rid himself of his terrible disease.

Australia could become an Outpost of the global struggle for the destruction of cervical cancer. The researchers argue that in 2035 the country will get rid of the threat of this tumor, if the current situation with the vaccine and diagnostics will continue. In accordance with the new forecasts, in 2022 the cervical tumor will be among the rare varieties of cancer. This is very good news for women throughout Australia, as the scientists. They for many years reinforce control over the distribution of tumors, in number, and at the expense of universal vaccination against human papilloma virus.

According to researchers, if the incidence of cervical cancer will fall below 4 cases per 100,000 people, it will be the first significant step in completely ridding the country from the disease. It is expected that this milestone will be reached by 2035. In 2022, the incidence of cervical cancer is 6 cases per 100 000 vs the current 7 cases. Thus tumors of the cervix will not pose a significant threat to the population of Australia. However, to achieve this result it is necessary to maintain the current rates of vaccination and diagnostics.
