New York City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito has revealed she has 'high risk HPV', a sexually-transmitted disease that can cause cancer.
She made the announcement on Twitter on Sunday, explaining that she learned about her human papillomavirus diagnosis on Friday following a long overdue gynecologist's appointment.

Nope.
I'm actually separated from upper Manhattan and the Bronx by a small body of water.

Stigmatized it more because you're so ugly.
Kinda looks like Newt Gingrich in drag.

She is pure Puerto Rican LaRaza trash. Just goes to show you how normal people are sabotaged by the libtards who elect these creeps. According to her, the rest of the city should work to support her various LaRaza crap causes to help (probably illegal) Hispanics. I don’t have to think twice wondering if she is working hard to bring our fair share of the SW illegals pouring over the border to NYC. Maybe that’s where she caught her dose of HPV. But I don’t have to know about it. Nor want to. Ho!

I've always likened her to an Hispanic Rosie O'Donnell.

Gee, thanks for telling the whole world about your crotch rot. Pardon me while I find a bucket so that I may vomit into it.

Why is the marital status of an aide germane to this news? It establishes that she, being single, sleeps around. If she were married, she probably wouldn't have the load of dirty laundry she's airing.

She has, evidently been doing a bit more than laying down with dogs
I am so glad I don’t live in NYC
