Cancer event in 2019, she said: "I found myself in a position where nobody wants this job. Nobody wants to come forward. And I knew that people were suffering and people were ashamed. In spite of the optics, I care deeply about saving lives. To that end, the important thing to do is educate the public about HPV."
