In Sub-Saharan Africa, adolescent girls and young women are three times more likely to be infected with HIV than boys and men of the same age—and the driving factor is inequality. With education, we can reduce the risk by up to 50%. #Equalize #WorldAIDSDay dailymaverick.co.za/article/2022-1…

I meant to retweet that TikTok vid on the choice to be childfree with comment. It’s not necessary for women who choose to be childfree to justify it by explaining that allows them to focus on other people’s kids who they love. Men never have to do that.

South Africa is set to destroy 80 000 vaccine doses of Pfizer due to expire on 31st March 2022. In addition, more than 400 000 doses of vaccines were lost through wastage, unused open vials. We want vaccine equity and justice, and we must show up by not wasting vaccine doses. 🙏🏿
