Before the vaccine, 10% of measles infections resulted in deafness. Measles currently causes 100K children/yr to become blind. Even those who recover completely can later develop the fatal encephalitis. Every infection disrupts the immune system and can cause loss of all immunity to other infections
I see what you mean. And I totally get that it’s a metaphor. In that case, we are ALL out of spoons these days!
Dear Celeste, If you look higher, do you not see more spoons? 🥄🥄🥄
P.S. I loved your book Little Fires Everywhere. (I live in Cleveland. You captured Shaker so well!)

"More than fifteen drugs essential for critical care have been in short supply in the United States for over a decade. This is a major health issue, and the fact that the government has essentially taken a laissez-faire attitude is disgusting."
Peter Attia never finished a residency and isn’t board certified in anything. Yet, he’s made millions suggesting he knows more than anyone else on “longevity medicine.”
Add in his vile private behavior, and somehow Bari Weiss is still advocating for him?
ICE is now LYING to medical professionals about how detainees are getting injured, to cover their butts. In case you're wondering how ICE terror affects healthcare. Via @apnews.com

Dr. King is rightly remembered for his leadership in the civil rights movement but far less attention is paid to his views on health and justice. He once observed, "Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health is the most shocking and inhuman."

It is irresponsible and dangerous for the CMS Administrator (a physician who knows better) to downplay the importance of getting the flu vaccine.
Reminder: The US had ~38,000 flu deaths in the 2024-25 season.
Since people find being hopeful and optimistic so cringe these days, let me remind you once again that there isn’t a single liberation movement in the world that wasn’t built on hope and optimism.
