Description

Cervical cancer kills more Tanzanian women than any other cancer, yet screening reached only about seven percent of women in a 2022 national survey of over fifteen thousand. Yordanos Sisay Asgedom and co-authors dig into the survey with multilevel models, separating personal factors from community ones. Older women screened more; the analysis walks through education, wealth, and place as well.

The work is framed by the global ninety-seventy-ninety targets for vaccination, screening, and treatment by 2030. With uptake this low, the authors argue, knowing exactly which women and which communities are missed is the first step to designing outreach that reaches them.
