"A new survey reveals major gaps in public knowledge, with many mistakenly believing HPV only affects women or that symptoms will warn them. Experts stress the urgent need for vaccination, which can prevent up to 90% of these cancers, yet far too few people are taking advantage of it. With HPV-related cancers rising fast, especially in middle-aged men, awareness and action are more crucial than ever."

HPV isn't just a concern for women — it’s actually more common in men and is driving a rise in dangerous cancers, including those of the throat and tongue. A new survey reveals major gaps in public knowledge, with many mistakenly believing HPV only affects women or that symptoms will warn them. ...

https://oneclickpolitics.global.ssl.fastly.net/messages/edit?promo_id=23526 Take Action & Support Bill S1983 / A944 Eliminating Practice Restrictions for NJ Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs)

Support Bill S1983/A944 Eliminating Practice Restrictions for Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs). APNs are highly trained and qualified healthcare professionals who play a crucial role in delivering primary and mental health care. Granting them full practice authority would significantly enhance their ability to serve patients independently, thereby improving healthcare access and outcomes for our citizens in New Jersey (NJ). This bill has bipartisan support in both the senate and assembly in NJ. It is time to move this bill forward and allow NJ citizens access to high quality care. Support NJ in becoming a full practice state and join the other 27 states that allow for APN full practice.

"Endometriosis is now genetically linked to widespread inflammation, asthma, migraines, and more. The understanding of endometriosis is changing. It is not purely a gynecological condition. “In the past three to five years, there’s been a complete reframing of this disorder as a neuroinflammatory whole-body condition,” says reproductive biologist Philippa Saunders of the University of Edinburgh. “It isn’t just about a little bit of tissue stuck in the wrong place. Your whole body has reacted.”
