Despite US politics being a total clusterfuck, this is an incredible development. It will be the first time anyone under the age 54 will have been alive to see a Lunar mission. Part of the spacecraft was also built by the European Space Agency. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

100% agree!
Parent and pediatrician here.
All vaccines are still available & recommended. Talk to your pediatrician for more info.
Know this: Even as our government shifts its recommendation language, I would never forgo the RSV, hepatitis A & B, or meningitis vaccines for my own kids.

The anti-Semitic mass shooting in Australia will cause a national conversation and policy change. We know this because the 1996 Port Arthur massacre led to significant restrictions on guns.
The shooting at Brown will do nothing. We know this because it occurred on the anniversary of Sandy Hook.

Do you know why I was able to successfully, & exclusively breastfeed my son? I was lucky to have a loving and supportive husband (with a good career). But most importantly, I was in NP school, so I wasn't working full time! That is how to get more kids breastfeed. SUPPORT THE MOTHERS! #fedisbest

If there was any doubt at all that the CDC is fully destroyed, this page on autism and vaccines on its website confirms it. It's now just another vessel of dangerous health misinformation. I have no words. This is beyond sad.

I feel like I say this every year but I really need people to hear it. Halloween is the best American holiday. Just kids outside welcomed into their world, marching around together, showing off their costumes to the elderly, parents meeting parents, neighbors catching up with neighbors.

Barely into this debate and Mamdani's already had this mic-drop:
"Why would NYers turn back to the governor who sent seniors to their death in nursing homes? What I don't have an experience, I make up for an integrity. And what you don’t have in integrity, you can never make up for in experience.”

While I am genuinely concerned for my colleagues who are doctors currently on H1B visas, I acknowledge that I can't make people care about other humans.
But American *should* care about the fact that their ability to get medical care WILL be affected by these visa restrictions.

23% of all resident medical doctors are on H1B, many working in rural and underserved hospitals because those hospitals have trouble getting doctors to move to Danville, VA or Salina, KS.
