Cervical cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in 23 countries and is the leading cause of cancer death in 36 countries. According to WHO, a large majority of cervical cancer (more than 95%) is due to the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV infection is widespread among women and men; an estimated 300 million women worldwide have an HPV infection yearly, and over 311,000 deaths annually. Different types of infection could lead to different diseases and cancers.

As suggested by WHO, HPV testing is an objective test that is simpler, prevents more pre-cancers and cancer, and saves more lives.
