Screening levels for cervical cancer across Munster fail to reach  national target

Some 87% of women aged between 25 and 29 attended screening. Women in their 40s also attended in high numbers with 83% of women aged 45 to 49 attending.

Screening levels for cervical cancer across all Munster counties are lower than the national target of 80%.

Cork has the highest level of uptake in Munster and comes in at just 68%, the first CervicalCheck report since before the pandemic shows.
