Telangana to launch free HPV vax for adolescent girls
Telangana is launching a statewide, free, and voluntary HPV vaccination program for adolescent girls aged 14-15 to combat rising cervical cancer cases. The initiative, part of a national effort, will administer the Gardasil 4 vaccine at public health facilities. This proactive measure aims to protect young girls from HPV infection and related cancers, with the rollout expected by early March.
