Publicly funded healthcare system makes kids available for women and "individuals with a cervix"
Canada is asking people to do their own pap smears at home as the country copes with a nationwide doctor shortage.
This week, British Columbia launched Canada’s first “cervix self-screening program” and encouraged citizens to order pap smear test kits to test for cervical cancer at home.
Starting January 29, women or “individuals with a cervix” ages 25 to 69 can order a “quick, easy and highly accurate test kit” to test for cervical cancer at home, the province’s health ministry said in a news release on Tuesday.
