She said it is important to combat misinformation regarding the human papillomavirus vaccine. She told the Daily Mail about this.

She explained that cervical cancer has fatal consequences. This cancer in 99 percent of cases appears due to the human papillomavirus, which is sexually transmitted.

Eckert emphasized that if HPV infection can be prevented, the risk of cervical cancer can be reduced. To do this, you need to get a vaccine, which should be used for girls aged 12–13 years.

Earlier, ABN24 reported that the therapist said that each person needs to consume more than 3.5 thousand calories per day so that the body can perform the functions it needs.
