This Sunday marks World AIDS Day! 👉🏼Did you know that HIV causes a weakened immune system? It puts people living with the virus at an increased risk of many types of cancer. According to some studies: ✔️The risk doubles for lung cancer ✔️The risk is multiplied by 7 for liver cancer ✔️The risk is multiplied by 20 for vulvar & vaginal cancer ✔️The risk is multiplied by 40 for anal cancer, & 70 times for men having sexual relationships with other men (Source: CancerVIH, Inca 2017) Further reasons for public health policies to work together, and for vaccines that can prevent cancer to be fully deployed across Europe. 💉 Read more: cedars-sinai.org/health-libr…. #HIV #AIDS #worldaidsday

Day 2 at @EPHconference is over. Learned so much about #health #inequities and how to approach them (inspiring talk by @MichaelMarmot), current #healthliteracy #research, the firearm industry's impact on #SDGs, and the thought-provoking "Church of Fail" for #cocreation learning.
