Sofiat Akinola: Eliminating Cervical Cancer Is Not Only a Public Health Imperative But Also An Economic One
Sofiat Akinola, Health Policy and External Affairs at Roche, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“As attention turns to Bali for the Global Cervical Cancer Elimination Forum, the urgency and ambition behind the 2030 cervical cancer elimination goal remain in the spotlight.
Eliminating cervical cancer isn’t just about vaccines, screening, or treatment; it’s about ensuring the systems are in place to deliver them equitably. This means financing, trust-building, coordinated delivery, and broad collaboration across various sectors.
My latest article in Healthcare Transformers explores why eliminating cervical cancer is not only a public health imperative but also an economic one. With strategies like HPV self-collection, we have a chance to drive impact at scale, improving outcomes and strengthening health systems in the process.
We have the tools. What we need now is sustained collective commitment.
