A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.
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.

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.
We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

So, right now, the only reliable way to diagnose endometriosis is with exploratory surgery. But finally, real scientists (instead of male scientists), are on the job & of course they’ve identified multiple markers in menstrual blood that point to noninvasive testing.

Man at post office tried to explain to me how the package chute works. I was like "Oh my god, amazing." He looked so smug and I was like "No, no, when I saw you walking across the parking lot, I was like, 'That man loves explaining things to women' and I was right!" He gasped like I punched him. :)

Imagine explaining to someone in 2019 that in 2025 the Israeli military would be trying to drone bomb Greta Thunberg.
Israel just bombed the flotilla boat that Greta (and the rest of the original Madleen crew) were sailing on, as it was docked in Tunis to set sail tomorrow for Gaza.

Many of you still don't get how these Gaza fundraisers came about & that they are more about you than about Palestinians in Gaza. I keep explaining this in every podcast I've been on lately...but let me write a thread as well: These fundraisers exist to snuff out your relationship with Palestinians

The Swedish prime minister, Ulf Kristersson, has come under fire after admitting that he regularly consults AI tools for a second opinion in his role running the country.
Kristersson, whose Moderate party leads Sweden’s centre-right coalition government, said he used tools including Chat GPT and the French service LeChat. His colleagues also used AI in their daily work, he said. Continue reading...

20 straight days with 30 °C in Finland! Truly unprecedented heatwave still in full swing with maximum today about 32-33 degrees.
Even the Arctic regions (e.g. Sodankylä Tähtelä) have seen three weeks above 25 °C, and may rival tomorrow their August heat records.
