Regional petition seeking support for cervical cancer screening
Jun 13, 2013
BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, CMC - The Healthy Caribbean Coalition (HCC) has launched a regional petition aimed at getting Caribbean governments to increase women’s access to affordable cervical cancer screening. The HCC said nearly 100 per cent of all cervical cancer cases can be prevented if people accessed screening and the electronic petition is aimed at getting the Caribbean population to pressure regional governments into action. HCC president Professor Trevor Hassell said the petition is not an adversarial initiative.
