New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns, who tragically lost his 58-year-old mum and several family members to COVID-19 complications, continues advocating for vaccination. “I have asthma,” Towns said, highlighting his “high-risk status” while raising awareness of the non-mRNA NUVAXOVID vaccine.

A screenshot of a Forbes article titled "Karl-Anthony Towns Who Lost Mom To COVID-19 Talks Of Value Of Vaccine." The article is written by Bruce Y. Lee and shows a publication date from early October 2026. Below the headline, a photograph captures NBA player Karl-Anthony Towns sitting at a press conference microphone wearing a white New York Knicks jersey. He is looking forward with a serious expression against a blue backdrop covered in repeating logos for Chase and the New York Knicks. A caption below the photo identifies him as the Knicks center speaking at a recent Media Day.

I know the bar is so low it's in hell but these are the moments of healthy masculinity that warm my heart. It's okay to be afraid of needles! It's okay to need some comfort! It's okay to get that comfort from another straight dude! At a time when empathy is seen as a weakness, this is really nice

Words Matter. 🧵 As an English major, later an English Composition & Literature teacher, and now a writer and public speaker, I've kinda built my life around that. Next week, I'll join Dr. Susan Dorfman, Jameson Fleming, and Marc Minassian at #AWNY26 to discuss how even the most well-intentioned ...

I'll be speaking at ADVERTISING
WEEK NEW YORK
Tuesday, October 6
The Penn District, NYC
Words Matter:
How to Communicate with Humanity in a Regulated, Al World
Kerry L. Wong
Writer, Educator, Patient Advocate

FLaB background with description of Advertising Week NY session "Words Matter: How to Communicate with Humanity in a Regulated, AI World"
As marketers we understand that the words we choose to use are important. This is particularly true in healthcare marketing, where audiences are sensitive and communication is critical. Advertising is often packed with buzzwords, clinical jargon, and well-intentioned phrases that can at times actually alienate the very people they try to help. Join a top pharma leader, an agency executive, and a patient advocate as they tear down the industry's most cringeworthy language and rebuild a human-first approach to copy.
Includes headshots of panelists:
Dr. Susan Dorfman, President and CEO, CMI Media Group, a
WPP Company
Jameson Fleming, Editor in Chief,
MM+M, PRWeek and Campaign
Marc Minassian, Head of Media &
Innovation, Genentech

[icon of someone in a wheelchair] Sometimes, disability takes the choice away from you.

You can want something very much, do everything you can to find a way to make it work, and still discover that there simply isn't a workable way to do it.

🎯 'A man raped her' instead of 'she was raped.' Have you ever read a headline that reads "A bank was robbed by a suspect?" Nope. It's "A suspect robbed a bank."

I was at a #sarcoidosis conference over the weekend, and a few people actually recognized me from my writing! That is such an amazing feeling!! You know how we say "if it helps just one person, it's worth it?" It's SO worth it! 🦋
