Measles high infection rate is the reason we have not yet been able to eradicate it. That rate means you need a very high vaccination rate to prevent outbreaks. It is possible, but not with current levels of institutional distrust.
The average person with the flu gives it to around 1.4 people. The average person with measles gives it to between 12 and 18 people.

Measles cases continue to surge globally, putting millions of children at risk.

I’m a part time librarian and I just want to echo what I’ve seen other librarians say recently: there is a HUGE uptick in requests for social justice, climate justice, abolition, history, etc books and I just want to say nobody is giving up the fight. If anything people are fighting harder #library

As of this moment, Canadians are united as one in defiance of tyranny.

Americans? Most Americans have no idea that the idiot monster they elected because they forgot to vote has started a massive trade war that will upend their lives.

The trust issues this emotional rollercoaster of a book gave me! Broke my heart and had me in tears more than once. Emily Austin knocks it out of the park again. I loved it!

I think I don't own enough physical copies of banned books. I am low-key starting to panic about what order to buy them in. Erasing history right before our eyes. #booksky #bannedbooks #fdt
