ALARMING: Anti-vaccine protests in Bangladesh are spreading harmful misinformation about cervical cancer! Extremists claim that HPV vaccine is unnecessary, instead blaming women’s “indecency”, “polygamy”, “extra-marital affairs” & “shamelessness” for cervical cancer. This harmful narrative puts women’s lives at risk!
Cervical cancer is caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV), NOT a woman’s moral character. The HPV vaccine is a lifesaving tool that protects against this deadly disease.
Let’s stand together against religious extremism and misinformation! Support women’s health and rights by promoting fact-based education and access to healthcare.
