Swung by the Exeter farmers’ market today, picked up quite a bit of stuff. We’re finally getting into summer, and it shows.
Chard, carrots, strawberries, garlic scapes, and lettuce. Not half bad.

HPV Vaccine Approved (Finally)
This is a new and somewhat contentious vaccine that, in clinical trials, has been shown to be highly effective at conferring immunity against four members of the HPV family, HPV-16 and -18, responsible for the majority of cervical cancers, and HPV-6 and -11, which cause the majority of cases of genital warts. Today, the FDA approved Gardasil for use in female patients from 9-26, in order to better protect young women against cervical cancer.

This feels like middle school.
