Cervical cancer kills 4 women daily in Zimbabwe
Speaking during a United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) media family planning awareness workshop in Kadoma last week, the agency’s reproductive health specialist, Dr Edwin Mapeta said that cervical cancer kills four women daily in Zimbabwe.
Said Dr Mupeta:
Four women in Zimbabwe die daily due to cervical cancer and what worries is that despite the numerous cancer screening institutions that the Government has set, only about 13 percent of women at risk have bothered to go for screening. Our HIV prevalence has also increased the number of cervical cancer detected annually. From about 2 200 that we diagnose of cervical cancer yearly, 1 400 of them die.
