If it was just another random troll referring to a graph showing dramatic reductions in cervical cancer associated with the HPV vaccine as a scam, it would just be another day on X.
But this anonymous coder is followed and reposted by the Secretary of HHS.

Last year was an active norovirus season due to the circulation of genotype GII.17, which had been prevalent in Asia, but started popping up in Europe and North America, contributing to >75% of the reported norovirus cases.
