If you don't already follow Wendy, you really should. This post dredged up some really awful memories of my previous life in the adult ICU. Vaccines are the single most important public health measure EVER.
Have you ever watched a baby die of pertussis? I have.

This is what it looks like:
A newborn baby can’t stop coughing. They can’t catch their breath. They can’t eat. They get dehydrated and stop peeing. They sometimes have pauses in their breathing. Parents are terrified so they come to the ER.

It looks like BlueSky has finally reached critical mass. It's nice to have a platform that isn't overrun by MAGAts and bots!
