January was a transformative month for the Canadian men’s national team. Wins in Honduras and at home to the U.S. – coupled with the El Salvador road victory on Feb. 2 – all but guaranteed its qualification for the 2022 World Cup. Fans could start monitoring flights to Doha with relative comfort. An arguably superior development transpired that month, too.

Cervical malignancy is due to the highly infectious HPV or human papillomavirus.  It is sexually transmitted and exists in different forms. A HPV infection may disappear without treatment or develop to an abnormal cell development that could cause cervical cancer. 7 Signs of Cervical Cancer Continuous pain in the legs, hips or back The swelling in the cervix may compress other organs.
