First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year.

“'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'"

Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder.

Saying “no water system in the world could have handled the LA fires” may be accurate, but it sidesteps a larger issue. Water systems were never designed to address the challenges posed by today’s changing climate because, until now, they never needed to.
