A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.
This is the power of vaccines.
The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.
Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination
Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

From the BBC... What journalists have made life hell? All of them appear to be on his side. He is as powerful as JKR or Farage to get a free press ride.

Powerful piece by @drrachelclarke.com on the COVID inquiry. Those who say it’s easy to be wise in hindsight are being utterly disingenuous. Many of us spoke out at the time, and it’s in the public record.

Once again, we are way too relaxed about the fact that "shooting Irish people is good actually" is a mainstream political position on the neighbouring island.

There’s a deeper trick here. He calls respectful coverage of trans lives “bias,” then demands “balance” by platforming anti-trans voices (ignoring that BBC policy won’t allow trans voices without GC ones too!)
That’s the same old “I’ve been silenced because I can’t be transphobic on air” routine.

'The fort opposite the oakwood,
Once it was Bruidge’s, it was Cathal’s
It was Aed’s, it was Ailill’s,
It was Conaing’s, it was Cuiline’s
and it was Maeldúin’s
The fort remains after each in his turn
and the kings asleep in the ground'.
