Por quase uma década, o Brasil oferece gratuitamente uma das ferramentas mais poderosas já criadas para interromper o ciclo de um dos cânceres mais comuns entre mulheres — antes mesmo que ele comece. A vacina contra o HPV, disponível no SUS desde 2014, protege contra sete doenças distintas e está ao alcance de crianças entre nove e quatorze anos em todo o país. O desafio não é o acesso, nem o custo: é a persistência humana diante de um compromisso que exige ser cumprido até o fim.
