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.

Also a surprise $800 in this economy is like, actually devastating, but it did not occur to anyone to check to make sure the vaccine was covered, the doctors were just like "yep it's time let's go" because WHY WOULDN'T YOU?

This makes me even more rageful that a friend just had to pay $800 because her insurance denied coverage of her 19 year old's HPV vaccine, claiming that it is no longer recommended. Appeals were denied. I can only assume RFK Jr had something to do with this???

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

I finished watching the new Defunctland, which is the second part of his documentary about the history of animatronics and I have to admit it was worth every hour of runtime.

Just thinking about the profound impact on our lives that the craven, selfish, petty choices made by ‘access journalists’ has had. Never working again is the bare minimum of accountability.

This coupled with Lizza sitting on all of these revelations just to drop them in a petty newsletter makes me want to fumigate the entire political journalism world. Just staggering levels of unethical nonsense.

Brett Ratner outed Eliot Page as gay (before Page came out as a trans man,” is accused by six women of sexual assault and harrassment, and in 2018 lost all his deals with WB. Now Trump and his fellow rapists and rape apologists are demanding Ratner be fully funded to make movies.
