As I mentioned in our remarks, following a 30-year decline in the incidence rate for cervical cancer, that has now increased by 3.7% since 2015.
Cancer of the cervix is now the cancer in females that is increasing at the highest rate, so that's really concerning, especially given that we've acknowledged that it's incredibly preventable for the most part with vaccination and with screening.
That's why we're coming to you today—in the hope that we can increase the ease of transferring our screening from the Pap test to the HPV test and encourage that kids who are eligible in their province receive vaccinations—both boys and girls.
As you said, we've had incredible progress in delivering that up until now, so we need to keep that momentum going so we can reverse this trend.
