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.

Was on a shoot yesterday involving younger people at a formal event. For one horrible moment, I was the eldest male in the room and was asked about neck tie stuff...
Sorry fellas, I only wears ties when someone gets married 😅

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

An utter disgrace. A Trumpian level of destruction being wrought at the CSIRO under Albo.
"The environment unit, which has more than 700 full-time equivalent roles, will be reduced by 130 to 150. Four of its nine research focuses will not continue"

Climate of fear: are CSIRO’s sweeping job cuts a sign Australia doesn’t care about the extinction crisis?
Ever decreasing funding for the globally respected government agency mirrors an industry-wide trend that could hinder scientific breakthroughs

The government paid for my mum’s uni fees in full. She worked part time as a lab tech. The lab tech job didn’t require any qualifications. It was enough to live out of home
there were periods where you could have a part time service job that covered college classes and rent! so often i'd read about artists in the 60s and 70s who also paid for studio spaces they could stock with supplies, who had the leisure time to party and create their great works. robbed, i tell ya!
