I had three kids over a 5 year period spanning the late 2000’s to early 2010s. It was customary to keep infants at home for the first 3 months of life. My kids stayed home until they started school, & only then did the illnesses begin, but it was NOTHING like today. My youngest

I'm not a zero-cholera zealot. You can't eliminate cholera. But you can do stuff to stop catching it the whole time, can't you?

I like these Makrite N95s! They feel a little snugger than the 3M Aura, which is good for my small face. Nice to have colorful options that fit well ✌🏻 #saltingthevibes #yallmasking

After a disappointing decision in July we are pleased to announce that we have now been granted Core Participant status in the COVID-19 Inquiry’s investigation into the impact on Children and Young People. THANK YOU to everyone who stood by us! longcovidkids.org/post/press-rel…

Kenya Confirms 5th Mpox Case: - Patient: 29-year-old female - Travel History: None - Connection to Previous Case: Yes

Shocking statistic– prior to the pandemic Indiana vaccination rates for 3 yr olds stood at 70%. Today just over half of Indiana 3 yr olds have received their routine vaccinations (polio, measles, etc.) We are rapidly going backwards on a major predictor of life expectancy. 😞

Because the old XBB.1.5 ones are out of date, there will be no COVID vaccines available in Canada until the new ones roll out (October?). But yeah, it's all "Omicron". ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new…
