Raluca Turcan highlights the success of the HPV vaccination campaign in Sibiu, urging for direct reimbursement of HPV testing to improve national health outcomes. The number of vaccinated individuals rose significantly from 440 in 2021 to 8,881 in 2025-2026. Despite this progress, Romania still faces high cervical cancer rates, necessitating easier access to testing. Currently, HPV testing is not easily reimbursed, making it financially burdensome for many women. Turcan calls for changes in health policy to ensure testing is covered under the new health contract, emphasizing the importance of both vaccination and screening in cancer prevention efforts.
