Cancer leaders call to fund Gavi, the vaccine alliance

English

The NCD Alliance has joined cancer leaders in a Call to Action (CtA) to fund Gavi [1], the vaccine alliance, and support its work against hepatitis B and human papillomavirus in the poorest countries of the world. 

"We, the cancer societies, oncologists, nurses, community workers and advocates, call upon our governments to prioritize cancer control in the post-2015 development agenda and to support vaccinations against hepatitis B and human papillomavirus, one of the most cost-effective investments in cancer prevention, for advancing the World Health Organization’s ‘25 by 25’ target in reducing cancer deaths".
