We'll have a newborn this COVID/FLU season, and I'll be able to get it since I'm pregnant, but my husband, a HS teacher, and daughter who goes to daycare won't putting the baby at risk! This is frankly absurd, and completely against everything I was taught about public health!

President of FIFA

HAYES: “The United States siding with Putin against democratic allies will have massive consequences for global politics for decades to come.”

One and a half was a solid kicker here

Until I was pregnant myself, I had no clue how dangerous pregnancy can be....this is much needed research!

"Each vaccine on the childhood schedule is a triumph of science and medicine over disease"

And thankfully, we have eradicated many diseases WITH vaccines. Do we really want them back? Do we really want to fear more for our children's lives than we already do?

For the record, I would sign up again to get the childhood vaccine schedule in a heart beat. Public health, including vaccines, saves lives!

Yup! They lost my business. Have had to get creative, but so far have been able to find everything at Costco or Wegmans

Honestly wish Epi Case Studies on measles outbreaks were required reading...I can't ever forget them!

Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.

Same! Joined this weekend, hoping we can find everything we need between Costco and Wegmans

If only we had more storage!

Graphic from the New York Times called "Musk's Businesses Benefit Under Trump Shake-Up"

Understand this: Elon Musk’s wealth is tied directly to contracts and regulations from the government agencies he now controls.

He spent over $280 million to elect Trump and now he's cashing in — AND they got rid of the inspectors general who could hold him accountable.

Gross corruption.

When waiting for my gate yesterday overhead a man on a work call say "we're not trying to get in bed with them. yes, we're fooling around with them, but we aren't going to sleep with them."

Who talks like that at work?! My sister and I were like WTF?

I haven't heard of this! I'll have to look it up. Thanks!

That is my comfort show!!! Such a great adaptation (I like that they modernized it just a touch)

"I think the strategy here is: ‘Well, we’re just going to do it and dare somebody to stop us, and by the time they stop us, we’ll have destroyed it.’”

A reminder about the value of preorders: Someone just placed an order for the new Joan Didion book coming out in April. We hadn't heard about it yet and promptly ordered five more for the store.

If there's a book you're excited about, place a preorder! You might help other people find it, too! 💙📚
