Denmark close to wiping out cancer-causing HPV strains after vaccine roll-out

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-28 15:12:29

Denmark has effectively eliminated infections with the two biggest cancer-causing strains of human papillomavirus (HPV) since the vaccine was introduced in 2008, data suggests. The research, published in Eurosurveillance, could have implications for how vaccinated populations are screened in the coming years – particularly as people increasingly receive vaccines that protect against multiple high-risk types of HPV virus. Before vaccination, the prevalence of HPV16/18 was between 15 and 17%, wh

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-09-28 16:55:04

Looking for one more reason to worry about climate change? No? Well, here’s one anyway. Rising global temperatures are causing parts of the Siberian tundra to spontaneously explode.

Since then, they’ve identified more than a dozen similar craters on the Yamal and Gyda peninsulas and linked their formation to clima

Fourth Power’s sci-fi thermal batteries could be cheaper than pricey natural gas power plants

Fourth Power’s take on long-duration energy storage sounds like something out of a James Bond film. The thermal batteries come complete with superheated liquid tin and argon-filled hermetically sealed chambers. The company’s goal, though, is far more prosaic — to store electricity cheap enough to make solar and wind an obvious choice for 24/7 power. Here’s how the technology works: To store energy, electricity from the grid heats blocks of carbon inside insulated chambers filled with argon gas.
