Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to all the witnesses for being with us today for this study, which is important for understanding why there is so much work to do for women. As you said in your opening remarks, we haven’t yet given enough thought to the right way to treat certain types of cancer that are specific to women.
Dr. Kaida, on this subject and before I go any further with my questions, you touched on the issue of cervical cancer in your opening comments or in one of your answers. What’s worrying in the data that’s recently emerged is that the number of cases of this type of cancer is on the rise. To what do you attribute this and what are your potential solutions?
