As we saw during Covid, keeping people away from our countries is not the right strategy for Ebola or any other outbreak Supporting the affected countries with funding, tools, and expertise is the best strategy

Worrying to hear that the current Ebola outbreak may be more extensive that first thought. There is a huge void in resource for Aid with the withdrawal of USAID and other countries like Uk reducing aid budgets and this is a harsh reminder of some of the consequences of that.

Ebola may be spreading faster than first thought, WHO doctor warns
Hundreds of cases are suspected in central Africa but experts fear the actual number may be much higher.

Setting aside the reasons why this happened, and acknowledging individual desires to avoid toxicity (my desire too), I would agree with this observation. Not sure of the solution, but I do believe that it’s hard to resolve polarization this way.

A cartoon showing multiple FBI agents with cameras and notepads circled around a group of sea shells. Yellow crime scene tape circles the group. While outside the circle being ignored by the FBI are the bloody bodies of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

Seriously, we do… And stuff like cookies and pet rocks (yes, a hospital did this), and “DIY” stuff like this won’t cut it and is incredibly tone deaf: “made by us for us”

I’m not surprised either. This has been here all along, and many have chosen to not see or listen to the signals from those impacted daily. The racism goes deep.

True story: I brought 2 reflex hammers in my carry-on to the @aanmember.bsky.social for game show purposes, and a TSA agent informed me with a straight face that regulations require all tools to be under 7 inches. Did I say "that's not what your mom said?" No, I checked a bag like an adult.

Tip for surgeons: Allow yourself to imagine a contented, meaningful life outside of surgery. When you create a mental “Plan B”: → The grip of perfectionism loosens → You remember: your worth isn’t confined to the OR Try it and see!

If we didn’t think the inability to think and reason critically could get even worse, just wait and see what happens if we don’t take proactive measures…

“The seemingly inevitable entry of AI into K-12 education strikes me as, potentially, another form of cognitive surrender. If we’re going to slow or reverse this trend, now is the time.”🧪🛟
Researchers at Wharton coined a phrase, "cognitive surrender," for how people tend to defer to large language models over their own reason and judgment. Now imagine kids surrendering their critical thinking to A.I. before they've even developed critical-thinking skills in the first place.
A.I. use, and overuse of screens in general, also has an impact on the development of motor skills, working memory, language processing—the list goes on and on. A.I. also outsources kids' social-emotional growth. Children need to be learning through building relationships with their teachers and with each other.

Coastal hiking in Newfoundland, Canada is a treat for the eyes. Another view (last week) of the seaside cliffs near my hometown in Conception Bay North. #hiking #trail #ediacaran
Photo of a grey, sheer cliff face. The surface looks like it’s comprised of puzzle pieces. Blue sky is visible at the top of the photo.
