As a member of the select few who actually fill in/sign pediatric death certificates, I want to make one thing CRYSTAL CLEAR.
Any sane PICU attending would write:
“Cause of death: pneumonia Secondary to measles.”
We have suffered 2 pediatric deaths. How many more need to die for people to SPEAK UP?!

They are LITERALLY kidnapping children/families off the streets. If this doesn’t completely disgust you, you need to take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself if your reaction would be different if this was a Caucasian family who was abducted.
The country would be in a standstill.

1/My daughter goes to a DC public charter school.
Every child in my neighborhood of public servants and academics goes to DCPS.
If this 20%, 1bil cut to DCs budget passed the senate (WHICH IS 75% FUNDED BY DC TAX DOLLARS) passes the Senate, our schools, sanitation, clean water will be decimated

Dr Cassidy’s endorsement of RFK should be amended:
“I’ve had intense conversations with Trump’s VP clarifying that I will get no RNC support if I vote 👎. Accordingly, I vote ✅ for RFK. We may have a new burden of 💉-preventable diseases, but at least our Froot Loops will have a few less ingredients!”

Guns are STILL the leading cause of death in children ages 1-18.
I am an academic PICU attending, yet I increasingly feel like a battlefield 👩🏽⚕️ with the exponential increase in pediatric 🔫 violence.
Don’t give them your prayers, give them your vote and voice. That’s all they need.

We live in a country that is no longer shocked by “another school shooting,”
➡️where Sydney Sweeney 👙 pics get more airtime than a heroic 2nd grader who called 911 while a student murdered their classmates,
➡️where more are concerned with barring life saving 💉 and trans rights than barring 🔫
