To those of you in this boat with me, I see you. 💙

A stylized image of Tuvok from Star Trek Voyager,in a gold and black Starfleet uniform wearing dark sunglasses, standing against a dramatic background of explosions, lightning, and swirling clouds. Flames rise around him, and a glowing tiger face is faintly visible on his shoulder. The large yellow Japanese kanji characters “火曜日” (meaning “Tuesday”) are displayed across the bottom of the image.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.
