Because it's so much easier to convince a kid to get three shots instead of one.

Acting CDC director calls to 'break up' the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine into three shots
Individual vaccines for each virus aren't available in the U.S., and there is no published scientific evidence that shows a benefit to separating the combined vaccine.

If my kids were forced to do the reestablished Presidential* Physical Fitness Test, as a parent, I would just get the doctor to say that they had bone spurs in their feet. What's good for the goose...

Dr. Ned Hollowell coined the term VAST. VAST (SM) stands for Variable Attention Stimulus Trait to replace ADHD. I prefer that. I also prefer that AuDHD be called AVAST. Think of the pirate logos! "I can't deal with structure, but I need structure! Arrrrrrr!"

Funny thing about the Washington Post... they had their masthead changed to "Democracy Dies in Darkness". Now the "Post Perishes in Propaganda". Bezos killing a once-respected newspaper.

@mcuban.bsky.social Just another example of ridiculous pharm insurance … prescription last year covered with $11 cost now $34. At CostPlus … still $11 without insurance. What a racket companies like OptumRX are running.

So. Hear me out and tell me if I'm nuts. There is a limit on Social Security payroll deductions at about $176k, where the deductions from pay stops. Wouldn't SS be funded fully if they just removed that limit so that people who make more than that still pay into Social Security?
