No woman should die of cervical cancer, especially since we have the power to prevent most cervical cancers through human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinations and HPV testing/screening. Cervical cancer was once one of the most common causes of cancer death for American women. But during the past 30 years, the death rate has dropped by more than 50%, mostly due to increased use of the Pap test. Pap tests help clinicians discover early cases of cervical cancer. Pair that with getting the HPV vaccine and American women are safer than ever from the effects of cervical cancer.
