Had an amazing experience at the 2025 @ashecon.bsky.social Conference presenting my early-stage work on the role of proximity to healthcare facilities in Nigeria. Thank you to the discussant and all the participants for helpful comments and discussion!
Tej Singh showed that proximity to a primary health center in Nigeria leads to ⬆️ use of facility-based care, but no shift in overall care utilization

In next session: @jafaro0 joint w/ @tejendrapsingh shows that opium bans in Afghanistan ⬆️ food insecurity and lead to other adverse coping mechanisms among exposed households

Thanksgiving this year falls on the 28th, and 28 is a perfect number – meaning that it is equal to the sum of its proper divisors (28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14).

So... I hope you have a truly perfect #Thanksgiving!!
