Cervical cancer is the second most frequent type of cancer in Cameroon [1]. More than 7.1 million Cameroonian women aged 15 and above are at risk of this disease [2]. In the past ten years, various pilot projects have demonstrated the efficacy and acceptability of Gardasil TM, the vaccine against Human Papillomavirus (HPV) [3,4]. Based on these successful demonstration phases, with the support of the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI), the HPV vaccine is finally being implemented countrywide by the Ministry of Public Health. The main objective of the vaccine roll-out will be to immunize at least 80% of 9-year-old girls, and thus reduce the morbidity and mortality due to cervical cancer and other HPV-related infections in Cameroon.
