Bulgaria is doubling down on gender-neutral HPV vaccination! The incidence of oral cancer is increasingly related to HPV, and a rounded approach is key.

The Platform welcomes this initiative and will continue advocating for comprehensive HPV vaccination plans across the EU💉

This year's #WorldHealthDay reminded us once more that equal and fair access to essential healthcare is often taken for granted.

We are proud to be working with relevant stakeholders towards fair access to oral healthcare to contribute to a better quality of life in Europe.

We need to recognise #caries and #cavities as #NCDs at the same level as other major NCDs, such as #diabetes & #cardiovascular disease, across the globe.
