Mozambique boosts HPV vaccination to reach high coverage (WHO)
Maputo – Nine-year-old Vanessa Domingos and Cristina Joane, learners at Guava Primary School in Marracuene, Maputo, have both received their first vaccine against human papillomavirus (HPV) thanks to an immunization drive targeting young girls. "I was afraid of the needle, but I knew that the vaccine was good for protecting our health against this disease, so that we can play, study, grow up and fulfil our dreams in the future," Vanessa says.
