incredible that all of these are answered by saying "I'm 12 and won't be unhappy with anything or have to consider these 500 surgeries that don't exist if I'm given timely access to appropriate healthcare treatment options now"

Imagine, if you will, that NASA updated its website to suggest gravity might not exist, prompting CalTech and CERN to release statements saying, "With great sadness, we can no longer recommend listening to NASA."
This is what's happening in epidemiology.

"Settlers begin their land takeovers by forcibly displacing Palestinian shepherds and farmers from their land and establishing shepherding outposts. They then begin to harass, intimidate and attack Palestinian communities, leaving them no choice but to flee ... After that, settlers seize the land."

To a Mouse, On turning her up in her Nest, with the Plough, November 1785.
Robert Burns
Wee, sleekit, cowran, tim’rous beastie,
O, what a panic’s in thy breastie!
Thou need na start awa sae hasty,
Wi’ bickering brattle!
I wad be laith to rin an’ chase thee
Wi’ murd’ring pattle!
I’m truly sorry Man’s dominion
Has broken Nature’s social union,
An’ justifies that ill opinion,
Which makes thee startle,
At me, thy poor, earth-born companion,
An’ fellow-mortal!
I doubt na, whyles, but thou may thieve;
What then? poor beastie, thou maun live!
A daimen-icker in a thrave
’S a sma’ request:
I’ll get a blessin wi’ the lave,
An’ never miss’t!
Thy wee-bit housie, too, in ruin!
Its silly wa’s the win’s are strewin!
An’ naething, now, to big a new ane,
O’ foggage green!
An’ bleak December’s winds ensuin,
Baith snell an’ keen!
Thou saw the fields laid bare an’ waste,
An’ weary Winter comin fast,
An’ cozie here, beneath the blast,
Thou thought to dwell,
Till crash! the cruel coulter past
Out thro’ thy cell.
That wee-bit heap o’ leaves an’ stibble
Has cost thee monie a weary nibble!
Now thou’s turn’d out, for a’ thy trouble,
But house or hald,
To thole the Winter’s sleety dribble,
An’ cranreuch cauld!
But Mousie, thou art no thy-lane,
In proving foresight may be vain:
The best laid schemes o’ Mice an’ Men
Gang aft agley,
An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain,
For promis’d joy!
Still, thou art blest, compar’d wi’ me!
The present only toucheth thee:
But Och! I backward cast my e’e,
On prospects drear!
An’ forward, tho’ I canna see,
I guess an’ fear!

See: Nazi Germany, Italy under Mussolini, Spain under Franco, numerous South American dictatorships(invariably with US-CIA support). The same old tune, played over and over again. Only the band members and names change.

In Rhode Island, ICE arrested an intern who worked for a court, and then a judge intervened to say they had the wrong person.
All leading to a scene where ICE agents surrounded the judge's car and "threatening to smash in the windows if they did not comply." www.wfla.com/news/judge-i...

I think it's no exaggeration to say that, the twisted mind of Dr. Josef Mengele would appreciate the cruelty, the pointlessness and the sheer indifference to the negative impacts, on those who are subjected to this barbaric system.

New York will always be a city of immigrants. When we protect the communities who keep this city running and uphold our sanctuary laws, we create a future that’s safer for every New Yorker.
