Itโ€™s been a rewarding week at UofT: a lovely Goggio Lecture on #ItalianGirlhood, and the fantastic event Behind the Scenes of Comics Creation, sponsored by TICS! This weekend, Iโ€™ll be resting like Snoopy on the roof of his red doghouse, contemplating nothing but naps and snacks!

In Scotland no cervical cancer cases have been detected in fully vaccinated women since the 2008 introduction of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination. Public Health Minister @jenni_minto encouraged those eligible to take up the vaccination offer. See - https://t.co/euw5GXQqFm
