If your kid is seated in front of you on a 2-wheeler then they become your 'safety airbag' in case of an accident.

Each year, more than 600,000 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer and more than 340,000 women die from the disease.
This doesn’t have to be the case.
Research shows that only one dose of the HPV vaccine is needed to prevent the development of cervical cancer.

Though Martin Luther King's quote from 1966 still rings true today, the weight of these words propel healthcare practitioners to do better & do more to balance the scales of access to quality healthcare. Kudos to everyone striving globally to correct that injustice! #mlkday
