One thing that I think has been glossed over in the Cleveland Clinic caving on youth trans care: they reportedly agreed to discontinue that care for *two decades* signalcleveland.org/cleveland-cl...

Criticism of maternal mortality data in the US makes sense: it's a mess; it's always been a mess. But there's real crisis that sits at the intersection of a whole set of systemic injustices and social shortcomings. My last story for @statnews.com: www.statnews.com/2024/12/20/m...

Kids are dying of measles. Not because their parents are refusing the MMR vaccine, but because it simply isn't available. Vaccines are amazing. Ineffective governments & supply chains too often get in the way. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/18/h... 🧪🩺🛟 @nytimes.com

Mangione means "big eater" so the McDonald's weakness does not surprise me (apologies, I had to).

It might be a day or two — or potentially longer — before health officials in DRC can determine what is the cause of an outbreak in a remote part of the country where 382 cases, 79 of them fatal, have been reported. Samples had to be transported >500 km for testing. www.statnews.com/2024/12/05/m...

Interesting to see that a dairy herd in Colorado is back in quarantine for #H5N1 #birdflu. CO hasn't had positive herds for a while. This herd was first confirmed in early Aug, but was out of quarantine by 9/8 & was still out of quarantine in late Oct. What happened here? New introduction?

My heart goes out to all the freelance journalist squeezing their brains to find important stories that no one has covered lest their pitches be rejected as unoriginal, but then have to bear, like, monthly profiles of Ballerina Farm.
