With direction from the VT Legislature, the Vermont Department of Health convened a task force to study eradication of cervical cancer in Vermont. The 2007 Eradication of Cervical Cancer report resulted from the Task Force’s findings and recommendations regarding the prevention, detection and treatment of cervical cancer in Vermont.   
 

This report lays out information on cervical cancer incidence and mortality, how human papillomavirus (HPV) relates to cervical cancer, prevention and early detection of cervical cancer, risk factors for cervical cancer, and cervical cancer treatment.
 

At the conclusion of its deliberations the Vermont Task Force to Eradicate Cervical Cancer concluded that Vermont is in a position to reduce the impact of cervical cancer among Vermont women. The task force recommended that the Vermont Department of Health provide leadership to develop approaches to work toward access to cervical cancer screening and HPV vaccine for Vermont women.
