VAX 2 STOP CANCER

This global day shines a spotlight on HPV & the opportunity we have to eliminate HPV cancers through education, vaccination, and screening. Let’s work together to drive the conversation, reduce stigma, and empower people with the information they need to take action!

#OneLessWorry

Prevention starts before diagnosis.
Up to 50% of cancers are preventable — and HPV vaccination plays a critical role.

In 1951, while being treated for cervical cancer, cancer cells were taken without her consent and became the first immortal human cell line (HeLa cells). She later died from cervical cancer.

First loves may come and go, but protection lasts a lifetime 💕 Make sure your little valentines are protected from HPV-related cancers—start the HPV vaccine series at age 9 and give them a future filled with healthy milestones.

❤️ Be mine. Be protected. ❤️

February is Black History Month 🖤 — and honoring history means confronting the health inequities that still exist today.

Cervical cancer is largely preventable with HPV vaccination and routine screening. Prevention should not depend on race or zip code.

Health equity is cancer prevention.

Minority women face higher rates of cervical cancer due to systemic barriers like limited access to care, lower HPV vaccination rates, and fewer preventive screenings. These disparities lead to later diagnoses and worse outcomes.

HPV isn’t a character flaw. It’s a common virus that millions of people face every day.

When we choose curiosity over judgment, we create space for understanding, healing, and prevention. 💜

Let’s uplift one another, share real information, and end the stigma together.

Vampires fear garlic…
Werewolves fear silver…
And HPV fears the vaccine. 💪💉

Stay spooky, stay protected! 🦇
Because preventing cancer is the best kind of magic. ✨🎃
Happy Halloween!

It’s not new. It’s not experimental.
Approved by the FDA in 2006, the HPV vaccine has quietly changed the future of cancer prevention—reducing HPV infections, lowering cancer rates, and protecting families around the world.

Give your child lifelong protection—start the HPV vaccine at age 9.

HPV doesn’t just affect the body…it impacts the heart, too. 💔
It’s time to end the silence. You are not alone and there is nothing to be ashamed of.
Education, compassion, and prevention can change everything.
