Sexual Intercourse is different from Sexual Contact!

One is penetrative, the other is not, let’s call it ‘Merry-go-rounding’🤦🏽‍♀️

Just a reminder that you can get HPV infection from Sexual contact as much as from Intercourse.

This means a Virgin can contact HPV!

HPV- Human Papilloma Virus is a viral STI with many strains. Low risk ( Causing Genital warts) and High risk (Causing Cancers: Cervical, Penile, Anal, Oral).

All it takes is for an uninfected person to come in close body contact with infected area. Do condoms offer protection?👇🏽
Use condoms. They are protective, from STIs. And also prevent unwanted pregnancy.
However, when it comes to HPV, condoms don’t offer complete protection. This is Cos, they can only cover a limited area of the genitalia. And contact with any infected area can lead to infection.
Moral: You can contact HPV from Oral, Anal as well as vaginal sex. HPV is the leading cause of Cervical cancer in women. Penile Cancer In men. And also causes Oral and Anal cancers.

Every sexually active woman should get screened today. A Pap smear/HPV screening every 3-5 yrs 👌
How to be safe;
1) Abstinence
2) Safe Sexual practices
3) Avoid Multiple Sexual partners or a Partner with multiple sexual partners.
4) Get Vaccinated against HPV. From age 9-26 is best for both sexes.
5) Ladies, get screened for #cervicalcancer from age 21 if sexually active
The earlier you’re vaccinated, the better for you. Parents, don’t jeopardize the future of your children. Vaccinate them today!

PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE!
Want to vaccinate your Girl child? Reach out to @SMILEWithmeNGO or send a DM.

Dear Mothers,
Your baby isn’t adding weight Cos most likely, you’re not #breastfeeding well. It is not spiritual!

Be patient. EMPTY one breast completely during a feed, before the next. When you switch breasts in between feeds, you end up giving WATER and WATER.
#DrZobo
THREAD
The breast milk has all the baby needs. A feed is divided into two:
-Fore milk
-Hind milk
As their names imply. The fore contains 90% water and vitamins, this is the reason why we tell you “No need to give baby water”.
The hind is richer, that’s the main food.
Clearer now?👇🏽
So when you switch in between feeds (give small here and give small here), baby is most likely receiving Fore milk from both sides, which is mostly water.
You: “I am #breastfeeding. I’m doing exclusive.”
Me: Exclusive what? Water?
Be aware.
How do I know I have emptied?👇🏽

You’re scared of HIV?
Let me introduce you to 🥁🥁
VIRAL #HEPATITIS B and C, which kills 1.4 million people/yr, with 9x more infections than HIV and increasing death rates!
#Selah
...yet the majority of global leaders and the public remain unaware!
@Fmohnigeria @nassnigeria
RT👇🏽
According to @who, Deaths from hepatitis have been increasing over the past 2 decades, which points to a lack of global awareness and action, including among top decision-makers.
Despite this situation, much can be done👇🏽.

#WorldHepatitisDay
Hepatitis can be prevented, diagnosed, treated and managed well. The hepatitis B vaccine is 98-100% effective in preventing new infections.
But how many of us have ever heard about it?
How many have taken action (Gotten Screened and vaccinated (ifnegative)
Treated when positive?

How to check your HIV STATUS at HOME Using Egg!

Scientists and Drs have just discovered a means of checking your HIV status by yourself at the convenience of your home.

N/B: The results takes a very nervous long time, but the ease, privacy and simplicity is worth it 👇🏽
#DrZobo
Remember, don't be afraid of the outcome of the result.
Having HIV is not the end of the world.

Being a virgin or that you trust yourself is not a guarantee that you are free

HIV is transmitted by other means apart from sex (Google for more)

So enough of talks, Let's do this👇🏽
Follow the steps below to do this successfully:

Step 1: Buy two eggs. Clean ones of course.
Step 2: Wash your saucepan and dry it with a napkin.
Step 3: Break the two egg and pour their contents into a clean dish.

(Patiently continue below) 👇🏽

Care to kick off the New Year with a TWEETORIAL? Our humble homage to @VPrasadMDMPH will walk you through the evidence on #HPV vaccines and what @Cochranecollab made of it. Let’s first agree on one thing: RCTs are superior to observational studies
On HPV vaccines many observational studies published and hyped Randomized Controlled Trials on #Gardasil #Cervarix failed to demonstrate the expected efficacy though. It is sad, true and rarely discussed. Let’s have a closer look. @garyschwitzer @HealthNewsRevu @senseaboutsci
In 2006 @US_FDA VRBPAC Committee required @Merck to provide data and analyses on Gardasil RCTs FUTURE I and II.
Which outcome would you consider as the most relevant to assess Gardasil efficacy?

Money, money, money! Let's talk money. Have you ever saved money with a group of friends or strangers? You're not alone. Many people do this in Africa. But what do you call it?

This is a map of what people across Africa call their 'merry-go-round' savings circles!

A Thread.
1. Africa is a fascinating place, no lie. We've go so many cultures. There are also thousands of languages spoken on the continent and each one is beautiful and unique in its own ways. Here's a map that shows the most widely spoken languages in Africa -
2. However, one thing seems to unite us - the social savings. Some people call it 'rotating savings', 'tontine', 'ajo', 'stokfel', 'maround', 'abota' or 'ekub'. In Kenya, it is called 'chama'. While this practice is popular in rural areas, many urban dwellers use it to save!

The funny thing is that I still fully expect Brennan and the conspirators to go to jail, since it's all lined up.

Bruce Ohr will testify behind closed doors, the OIG report will drop, then everybody scatters, more security clearances are revoked and then chaos will reign.
Currently everybody is victory lapping for things unrelated to Russia. Their problem is that they have to spin the FISA abuse OIG report soon, and not only that, deal with Bruce Ohr being fired and presumably Clapper's clearance being taken away.
Now their other problem is that they cannot claim the DOJ is on Trump's side - the DOJ is going to send Cohen and Manafort to jail.

@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK @BrightonSurvivorsNET “In the light of a highly disturbing increase of #transphobia locally & nationally…” IF everything anybody says or does is #transphobia, of course you can say it is rising. Any reputable statistics?
@SurvivorsnetBtn @RASASC_London @survivorstrust @Danvers07943910 @ObjectUK “…so the date @Womans_Place_UK event feels like a concerted effort to make #trans ppl, & particularly #transwomen, feel #intimidated and #invalidated” Is it the position of SN that the sensitivities of #transwomen mean that #democracy should be suspended any time they say so?

One year ago, @Reince tweeted that the GOP had “a revolutionary data program” resulting in them “carrying WI for first time in 30 years.”

Attached was this article that said these “Data Operations” helped Trump win WI & will used for the 2018 midterms.

👉host.madison.com/ct/news/local/…
Trump won* WI by just 22,748 votes.

200,000+ in WI were unable to vote in 2016.

Along with MI & PA, WI was one of the 3 swing states that gave* the EC to Trump by a scant 78,652 votes.

All 3 States were among the 39 states reported as hacked by Russia.

Exit polls are a scientifically proven litmus test. In 2016, they were off by as high as 10%

Anything above ~2.5% indicates suspect anomalies. It triggers other countries to nullify elections.

In the swing states of MI, PA, & WI—all were all above 3%.
