China has added the HPV vaccine to its national immunization program, providing it free to girls turning 13. At neighborhood clinics, CGTN reporter Feng Yilei found citizens praising the service as convenient, caring and life-saving.

This is part of China's expanding Essential Public Health Services program, which has grown over the past 15 years to cover prevention, screening, treatment and long-term health management, especially for the key groups.

As "Healthy China 2030" progresses, people-centered healthcare is becoming an integral part of everyday life, safeguarding futures and supporting the nation's modernization.
