"20 years ago, I got the HPV vaccine — when it was brand new."
HPV is common. Often silent.
Sometimes serious.
For many, the body clears it.
But sometimes it lingers. And its linked to six cancers, including #CervicalCancer
Vaccination regular screening = protection.
And cervical cancer elimination is within reach.
On HPV Awareness Day, we’re proud to support the @AskAboutHPV campaign — the work of @IPVSociety — whose global leadership continues to advance science, research, and education around HPV and related diseases.
Prevention gives us #OneLessWorry
Let’s normalize the conversation. Let’s move the message.
