The Lazarus Effect, 15 Years Later
Women living with HIV are five times more likely to develop cervical cancer. The Bush Institute, together with its partners PEPFAR and UNAIDS, developed a strategy to save women's lives in sub-Saharan African countries with a high prevalence of HIV and cervical cancer.
The global health community has made significant progress in reducing the number of deaths from infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS thanks in large part to the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). But this work is not complete.
Cervical cancer is highly preventable through the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, screening, and early treatment of pre-cancerous lesions. It is also treatable if detected early.
Thanks to the generosity of the American people, millions of lives have been saved in Africa. Today, that work continues through cervical cancer prevention and screening, especially for women living with HIV.
