January is World Cervical Cancer Awareness Month. 

It's all about creating awareness of the importance and availability of cervical cancer screening and treatment for women at risk. 

Cervical cancer is a disease that develops when cells of the cervix grow out of control. 

Giving an overview on cervical cancer awareness, Medical Officer, Dr. Chatty Lisoma says even though the disease is preventable, many women still die from it.
