The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Prevalence of any human papillomavirus deoxyribo nucleic acid and of different types of human papillomavirus (including multiple infections) among women undergoing cervical screening.

    Measured: At least 12 months from the date of subject enrolment

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Prevalence of any human papillomavirus deoxyribo nucleic acid and of different types of human papillomavirus (high risk and low risk) among women of different age strata undergoing cervical screening.

    Measured: At least 12 months from the date of subject enrolment

  2. Behavioural risk factors such as age at first marriage and age at first pregnancy (assessed through administration of a behavioural questionnaire).
