Hello! 👋🏼 I’m Gloria. Feels like OG #MedTwitter! I work at UCLA Health developing #MedEd programs focused on reducing stigma and increasing access to care for people who use drugs. I live in the SoCal town that burst into flames the day after the election, so send good thoughts for our community. ❤️🩹
Sorry Florida children must bear the burden of this antiscience, dangerous demonstration project. 🙏 ❤️🩹😢
Tomorrow Florida will stop requiring kids to get vaccinated for chickenpox, hep B & other viruses. Kids (and I say this w/love) are adorable disease vectors. Classrooms are petri dishes. This first-in-the-nation policy is about to make things way worse--esp for certain families, says Erica Halbert.
As Florida Schools Admit Unvaccinated Students, Working Families May Feel the Worst Consequences: Analysis
On Dec. 3, the Sunshine State will end many vaccine mandates required to attend public schools. The effects will be felt beyond the classroom.

Nazis systematically attacked, destroyed & burned synagogues in Hitler Germany.
These actions were not spontaneous but a state-sponsored campaign of terror.
Now in the US, we're seeing state-sponsored terror of immigrants as our government invades churches & grabs random people.

Trump says he is striking boats off Venezuela to stop drugs, mostly cocaine per reports.
Yet he just pardoned the Honduran ex-president who helped push more than 500 tons of cocaine into the U.S., took a $1 million bribe from El Chapo and bragged he would “stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses.”

This World AIDS Day, let's not forget that Musk cancelling USAID & PEPFAR has led to 600,000 deaths and countless preventable HIV infections.

Every year since 1988, the United States has recognized World AIDS Day — until now.
Why not? Maybe because the Trump administration doesn’t want to acknowledge that its foreign aid cuts led to nearly 150,000 deaths from AIDS, according to Boston University researchers.
Shameful.
