What’s poonam says after death post

Poonam Pandey, model and reality TV star, today announced that she hasn’t died of cervical cancer. Poonam announcement on Instagram came a day after the model’s manager announced that she had died of cervical cancer.
“I am alive. I didn’t die of cervical cancer. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same about the hundreds and thousands of women who have lost their lives due to cervical cancer.”

“I am sorry caused this tear and I am sorry to those I have hurt. My intention: to shock everyone into the conversation that we are not talking enough about – cervical cancer,” she said in another post.

She said that her “death” post was an effort to initiate a conversation and spread awareness about cervical cancer.

“Unlike some other cancers, Cervical Cancer is entirely preventable. The key lies in the HPV vaccine and early detection tests. We have the means to ensure no one loses their life to this disease,” she said.

Social media users are heavily criticizing the model for “faking her death” to spread awareness about the disease.

Yesterday, Poonam Pandey’s team had put out a statement saying that the model died of cervical cancer. The announcement had shocked everyone in the entertainment industry. The reactions ranged from disbelief to scepticism as many had seen the model at an event in Goa three days ago.
