Dear RFK: By the time a child is 6 years old, they’ll have received about 25–30 shots, depending on whether combo vaccines are used and if they’re fully up to date. By the time they’re 18 years old, the lifetime total can reach around 50 doses across the 15 recommended vaccine types.

I hope we'll see such orders signed by every official with the power to sign them. This isn't radical or even liberal; it's 101, it's like saying the king can't house his soldiers in people's homes.

There is not one marginalized, racialized, or oppressed group whose oppression or destruction is an acceptable cost for saving "democracy." Not one.
If saving democracy requires leaving marginalized people behind, that's not a democracy worth saving.
