📣 Prof @russelln.bsky.social, #CervicalCheck Clinical Director:
“Cervical screening is a vital tool in preventing cervical cancer. Early detection saves lives. We’ll keep working to help more women choose screening — and help make cervical cancer rare in Ireland.”

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work.

We know that HPV causes most cervical cancers - over 90% of cases.

We also know we can prevent it:
👉 HPV vaccination
👉 cervical screening
👉 treatment for those who need it

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.
