Digumarti Foundation, in association with Manavseva of Boston, organised a cervical cancer prevention programme for adolescent girls from municipal schools in Akkireddypalem and Gajuwaka at KIMS ICON Hospital on Sunday.

Over 200 girls received the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, which protects against most cervical cancer cases. Mothers were also screened for cervical pre-cancer using the HPV DNA test by Dr. Leela Digumarti, enabling early detection and treatment.
