#HPVVaccines saves life!

A sign that I enjoyed my MPH program Queen's Health Sciences Queen's University is that I managed to bring my Prof Sahar Saeed to Rwanda to teach the next generation of cancer researchers.
Great 1st day.
Thank you my Prof Sahar Saeed

AORTIC Challenges:
💡Stigma
💡Discrimination
💡Gender norms

➡️Same sex partners: cannot disclose whom they have sex with due to marginalization

➡️Sexuality in Africa: we are not open- private. This creates harm than good.

➡️we miss opportunity to care for patients
