VACCINES GIVE EVERYONE A SHOT AT LIFE!
South Africa’s HPV vaccine program is working!
Before it kicked off in 2014, about one in five teenage girls carried the two HPV strains behind most cervical cancers.
Among girls who are eligible for the vaccine, it is now three in 100.
For girls living with HIV, who face the highest risk, infections fell from 29% to 4%. The drop in cancer cases, however, will take decades to show.

House Judiciary Democrats: “Trump continues to lie about his involvement and close relationship with Epstein.
Our committee investigators have compiled a 6-year timeline recounting the close friends’ shared history of sexual assault when they were both fixtures in New York’s seedy world of hunting ground’ beauty pageants.”
The powers that be at @newyorktimes do not think this is newsworthy because they like Republicans and want them to win.

@samlitzinger In the UK, if a winning candidate is found to have lied intentionally during the campaign, they lose their seat. Great rule.

When Donald Trump and Jason Miller arrange a private jet for a fugitive money launderer and failed right-wing politician, which congressionally appropriated taxpayer funds do they use to pay for it?
