Vaccination rates aren’t just a personal choice, they determine whether outbreaks happen. • Polio: ~80–85% vaccination needed to prevent outbreaks • Measles: ~95% vaccination needed Once coverage drops, children become vulnerable. When vaccination rates fall, outbreaks follow.

You’re allowed to argue that black people and women are genetically inferior. But you’re NOT allowed to argue they are NOT inferior because that’s divisive. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/09/u...
This expands a similar purge recently at the Naval Academy library, in Maryland. Last month, civilian Navy officials, following orders originating from Mr. Hegseth, pulled from shelves books including one that critiqued “The Bell Curve,” a 1994 text that argues that Black men and women are genetically less intelligent than white people. But the academy kept “The Bell Curve” itself on its shelves.

4/ We found that mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) can reduce stress, increase self-compassion & even boost GPA among Latinx students. But we need more research on access, barriers & outcomes. #Mindfulness #AcademicResearch
