If Kennedy is so concerned about teens' future fertility, he should know that mumps & many other vaccine-preventable infections cause sterility. Instead of inventing weird shit about minor childrens' fertility, he should recommend that they all get the MMR, HPV, HBV, flu, & COVID-19 vaccines.

It’s a big problem. English doesn’t have a word that mean caring and cooperative long term observation. Except maybe‘follow-up’ most synonyms for surveillance and monitoring have sinister or controlling nuances.

Today is sub sorting day, my sisters are here and we are reviewing photos and memorabilia for generations ago and sharing stories. We do this once a month more or less.
Let’s make a time for you and me to chat.

The intercept won’t show me the linked article without signing up yet again when I already pay them a monthly fee. This is so annoying I am thinking of canceling my contributions. I seldom read it except via links. So it’s pretty useless.

The one time I've been present as this procedure was perforrmed on a patient, at the bed side in the old Baltimore City Hospital about 1979, it turned out to be a case of normal pressure hydrocephalus. Consciousness was not restored.

Reminds me of back in the 1950s when one of my sisters needed root canals on her baby teeth. We didn't have fluoride in our well water.
