#CervicalCancer #screening for Canadians is changing. Where provinces stand - National | Globalnews.ca https://globalnews.ca/news/9821466/hpv-test-pap-smear-cervical-cancer-canada/ “Prince Edward Island announced in May that the #HPV test would be used instead of the #Pap smear at three-year to five-year intervals, as it can detect high-risk strains of the virus, which are more likely to cause cancer.”
“Quebec announced last year that it would offer #HPV testing as the primary screening test for #CervicalCancer every five years to all women aged 25 and older in the province in May 2022, saying it is “more sensitive than the #Pap test” — which is recommended every three years.”
