Australia and England have effectively eliminated cervical cancer in women under 25, following widespread HPV vaccination campaigns, according to a report by Faroese broadcaster KVF.

In the Faroe Islands, HPV vaccination rates remain low, with roughly 50 percent of girls under 15 unvaccinated. The contrast with Australia and England highlights the impact of high vaccination coverage, KVF notes.
