One dose of the HPV vaccine has been shown to be just as effective as two doses in most under 25s.
If you or your child received one dose of the HPV vaccine before September 2023, a second dose won’t be needed.

I recently came across the Singing compost heap at @cardiffmet

Bacteria in the soil generate a small electrical current. Microbial fuel cells harvest the electricity. A solar powered circuit generates a sound that varies according to the microbial activity.

Amazing!
