        Beste Rob, ik heb hier eigenlijk helemaal geen mening over. Ik weet niet wat nu beter is : wel of niet vaccineren. Maar ze vergeten wel fact nr 6 te vermelden : de farmacie worden er schat hemeltje rijk van.

        As a woman I capitalize on the fact that cervical cancer is stated first on this list even though I know it was only because the list was done alphabetically, but I still rejoice in every break through fro girls and women.
