title: Fall in screening risks lives.
abstract: Figures released last month show cervical screening coverage in England has dropped again, and is now at 72.7%. This means that 1.12 million of the 4.2 million women invited for screening during 2015-16 did not attend, significantly increasing their risk of cervical cancer.
