According to the World Health Organization, there were about 600,000 new cases of cervical cancer and 342,000 deaths in 2020. Approximately 90% of the new cases were in low and middle income countries. A recent Reuters article discussed a “game-changer” vaccine that aims to significantly reduce those numbers.

It has 90% efficacy, and is about 87% less expensive than other similar vaccines.
