A cure for cancer?

[lagilman]

The news today says...maybe.

Specifically, a vaccine for cervical cancer, the first ever specifically designed to prevent cancer*.

I'm...cautious, because hopes have been dashed before. But it's a hell of a forward leap. And since I'm in the high-risk category for cervical cancer, I'm feeling it doubly so.



If you donated to the Revlon Run/Walk? Feel good. You helped get us here.





*and, of course, there are *expletives deleted* who want to deny the vaccine, because they claim it will 'encourage promiscuity." If someone says that near you? Hit them. Hard. I'll be your alibi.

I think the nebulous "they" (being evil members of the government, generally male) hate women... easy as that.
