If you are an adult under 45 in the US who never received the vaccine, you are also eligible for it. (You can also get it if you’re older, but insurance might not cover it). HPV is a very common infection, but it’s not inevitable. Let’s wipe it out!

This is wonderful news, and also means it’s time for me to beat the drum I always do when HPV vaccines make the news:

They are not only for women! HPV also causes penile, anal, and head and neck cancers. The latter are particularly deadly. Please vaccinate ALL your children.
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.

I hate how we've apparently collectively decided that gestational limits simply don't count as long as they're late enough
3. This map is wrong on multiple levels. Abortion is banned again in North Dakota as of last week; that state is the wrong color. Only 9 states lack a gestational limit and should be dark blue under this key. 41 states have bans

SPEAKING OF WHICH: this Instagram graphic from Impact and Planned Parenthood is also wrong, and could be described as misinformation. It’s not 19 states that ban all or some abortions—it’s 41.

New from me:

Letters from anti-abortion activists and Republican elected officials show stated goals of barring Planned Parenthood health centers from receiving any federal money and pulling them from the 340B drug pricing program, which allows for significant discounts on prescription drugs.

people always apologizing for their grief, saying: it’s nothing. saying: it was a long time ago. saying: I don’t know why I can’t get over it. but I don’t care if the rock in your shoe is TINY, if it got in there 5 years ago, if you put it in there yourself. it’s still a rock in your shoe. and—

Waiting to see the paperwork, but a few things:
-- Trump's numbers are not great in Alabama;
-- Straight-ticket voting is a D killer, even when they have a cash advantage (as Jones did in 2020);
-- But this will be a relief to legislative Democrats to have a top-of-the-ticket name to draw voters.

Notice Mamdani charmed Trump on live TV without backing down on any stances. He didn't water himself down, he didn't even take back calling Trump a fascist. Moderates would say butter him up, or try to appear more right-wing. Voters can see through that—and evidently so does he!

If she was talking specifically about abortion care later in pregnancy, many “pro abortion” organizations would agree.
