And remember to use soap and water! Hand sanitizer is ineffective for norovirus. Happy scrubbing!
We all know it's soup season, but did we also know it's 💩season? Norovirus causes 🤮 and 💩 and cases rise in the winter. It's transmitted the "fecal-oral" route -- that's what you think.

Also this. So much screaming into the void to do.
This Texas woman developed preeclampsia, leading to still-birth. She DIED, leaving her young son behind.
This happens while an all-male panel in South Carolina is deciding whether women should be charged w/ murder for their pregnancies.
Abortion is healthcare.
How many more women have to die?

So the CDC just lies now I guess.
This is completely disgusting. Today, the CDC updated their vaccine safety page. It now says:
“The claim "vaccines do not cause autism" is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism”.

I watching??? Circumcisions cause autism? Women should never take Tylenol? Vaccines for unformed babies that cover 82 things?? [Screams into void]

Besides linking Tylenol in pregnant women to autism, RFK Jr. now says circumcision is part of the reason why kids are autistic.
"Children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it's highly likely because they're given Tylenol. None of this is positive..."

Not okay. Stand up. Speak out.

In my area, it’s almost impossible to find a gyn if you’re on Medicaid and not also pregnant other than Planned Parenthood. That’s for any kind of gyn care (plus the other care many Planned Parenthood’s provide.) Thankfully I live in a blue state.
BREAKING NEWS: The Supreme Court allowed South Carolina to remove Planned Parenthood clinics from its state Medicaid program, even though Medicaid funds cannot generally be used to fund abortions.

Ugh. Why are we this way?
according to conservatives on the court, the constitution does not protect your right to your own body but does enable the government to ship you off to a foreign gulag without any hope of return

Students are graduating with sometimes 400k in debt. There is no cheap way to do medical school and now they are making it even harder.
President Trump’s proposed budget restricts loans that students rely on to pursue professional graduate degrees, making the path to becoming a physician harder. Critics say this could deter students from pursuing medicine even as doctor shortages loom.
Trump Budget’s Caps on Grad School Loans Could Worsen Doctor Shortage
The proposed limits on federal loans fall well below the costs of medical school. Critics say this could deter students from pursuing medicine.

How does this fit into the GOP’s pro-life ideology?🤔
Mariam Mohammed says her younger son died when she could not get treatment for him at a U.S.-funded clinic that had temporarily closed. Researchers say that are many thousands of cases like his.
Marco Rubio said no one has died due to U.S. aid cuts. This mom disagrees

What in the Gilead is going on here?
Georgia forcing the family of a brain dead Black woman to pay for her to remain on life support so the state can gestate her fetus is why we need pro-birth accountability laws that force a state to pay for all costs attending a forced birth. www.11alive.com/article/news...
Family says woman declared brain dead but her pregnancy continues under state law
Adriana Smith's been on life support 90+ days with weeks to go in her pregnancy. Her family questions Georgia’s heartbeat law — and why they had no say in her care.

In the Star Wars saga, there are two sides in the conflict:
One obsessed with massing absolute power in an effort to rule under threat of destruction & the resistance who stand against it.
Pick a side.

American needs more white conservative children. That’s why we are closing hospitals in predominantly white conservative parts of the country and having HHS give dangerous medical advice that only white conservatives are stupid enough to believe.
