摘要

Cervical cancer is the second most common cancer among cancers that occur in women worldwide, and is the fourth among the entire cancers occurring in Korea. Recognition by women in their 20s needs to be investigated. As a result of investigating the status of vaccination, 16.4% of people suffering from cervical cancer was vaccinated and 83.6% was not, indicating that the percentage is very high for those who were not vaccinated. People who have had free examinations available for ages 20 and up were 9.1%, and people who have not were 90.9%. For people with children, 78.2% was willing to receive government-funded vaccination, 7.3% was not willing, and 14.5% was unsure, indicating that more people were willing to receive vaccination. People should pay attention from the point of view of operating various programs such as government-funded vaccination and free examinations to prevent cervical cancer.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2019
