Almost 20 years ago, a doctor on TV was asked, "Isn't 12 a little early for a kid to be deciding to transition?" And her response was, "It's old enough for them to decide that it's not worth living anymore if they can't." That was the only argument I ever needed to hear about gender affirming care.

It can be simple to protect our and others health — by masking in public with K95 or N95 masks, testing before gatherings, increasing ventilation, and staying home if sick.Not only will this help mitigate the spread of COVID, but also all other respiratory illnesses of the season, like flu and RSV.

A lot of people don't realize that many patients with #LongCovid are now often being treated in Brain Injury Clinics, together with patients recovering from traumatic brain injury after a concussion. It's been hard to keep up with the literature, but here is a new one published yesterday #NeuroCovid

Screenshot of an article published yesterday at Nature Medicine that reads: Cognitive deficits after COVID-19 associated with brain injury biomarkers and volume loss. Behind the paper: Research questions about the effect of COVID-19 on the brain were formulated early in the pandemic and focused on acute brain inflammation, infarction,
demyelination and psychiatric complications. However, it rapidly
became apparent that many patients were describing lasting cognitive
impairment. The research focus rapidly realigned to address to what extent these subjective complaints could be confirmed by objective measurement and whether neurobiological evidence existed on brain imaging and injury biomarkers.

Participants in Denver's basic-income program reported having more-secure housing, though results were similar in the trial and control groups.
