My brother and one of my best friends got squamous cell cancer in the throat and mouth due to HPV. If they had received the HPV vaccine as young men (then unavailable), most likely they would never have gotten cancer.

Vaccines work. Don't let these trumpers tell you otherwise.

I keep thinking about that scene in Wicked when Dr. Dillamond is teaching the history of Animal rights, and somebody in the class whines, "Why don't you teach us history instead of dwelling on the past?" It feels so on the nose right now.
