This is the first CervicalCheck report since the pandemic

The new report covers April 2020 to March 2022, and has revealed the counties with the lowest and highest uptakes of cervical screenings.
It also highlights the impact of Covid-19 restrictions on the delivery of cervical screening, including the three-month-long pause in 2020.

Uptake is lowest in Clare, Dublin, Kilkenny, Laois and Mayo, with uptake being in the 60% mark.
