This administration pretends to honor the 250th, but brazenly dismisses its most profound legacies. 250 years ago this month, Washington’s surgeon general John Morgan wrote that government must “provide for the safety of its members by rendering the practice of inoculation as universal as possible.”
Finally, some good news!
Holy hell. This hits so hard, it leaves a mark on your brain.
Likewise, over 30 years, I have given countless anesthetics to men where their ex-wife stepped up to drive them home and take care of them after a procedure. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a man doing that favor for his ex-wife.

Glad you like them. I do the right thing every once in a blue moon.
One problem with American politics that doesn’t get talked about enough is the ~30% of voters who very much don’t want good things to happen to other people and would rather have hundreds of thousands of people crushed by medical debt than have a cent of their taxes go towards making society better
I’m so psyched to try Isaac’s the next time I’m in Durham. When we lived there (1998-2004), the main thing we missed was NYC-quality bagels.

The fact that a similar paper on the effectiveness of the influenza vaccine was allowed to be published, while the COVID vaccine paper was held up because of bogus “concerns” gives away the game. It’s political ideology suppressing science, which should end an NIH director’s career 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤡
A Cuban treefrog perched on a security light at the corner of my house. In case you were wondering, his name is Pete, and he goes “Chick-chick-a-boom, chick-chick-a-boom, chick-chick-a-boom.”

Ye? More like Nay, amirite? Thanks, I’ll show myself out.
Whatever happens, this is a deeply shameful episode in American history that will leave a permanent stain on the country.
Repeatedly vowing to commit war crimes against millions of innocent civilians is beyond the pale.
Like penetrating trauma cases, I find no need to ask. It doesn’t provide any useful additional information, and just stigmatizes the patient needlessly.

Trump’s failure to nominate a new CDC Director is just another symptom of the weapons-grade incompetence of The Regime.
The CDC could easily have been just humming along in the background while the U.S., I don’t know, starts wars and such.
But no. And this is also a national security threat.
