Vaccine refusal does not only harm the unvaccinated person. Infectious disease can spread to infants too young to be vaccinated, the elderly, and people with immunosuppression. Worse, as a pathogen spreads, more infections means more chances for mutations that allow the pathogen to evade vaccines.

A few people seem to be getting satisfaction from the fact that kids are getting seriously ill because their parents have refused to vaccinate them. I want to state for the record that I am 100% opposed to this type of thinking. These are kids. It was not their choice. They don’t deserve it.

As the military under Pete Hegseth rolls back recruiting for minority Americans remember that black women are the only reason the Army met its recruiting goals last year. Not enough white men qualify to even serve no matter volunteer. They'll learn when recruiting collapses and it ain't "wokeness."

Trump exiting from the Paris Agreement is a bad move for the world and for the United States.

But it’s not “game over” for climate.

It’s “game on!”

We must redouble our efforts and change our tactics to move forward with effective somutions.

Let’s go!

Today would have marked 52 years of Roe as the law of the land. But Donald Trump packed the Supreme Court with anti-abortion extremists to get it overturned.

This week, he cut off access to reproductiverights.gov.

We must keep fighting for women’s rights.

Many doctors don't discuss sex after cancer. But survivors wish they would

Questions about sex and intimacy often go unanswered for people with cancer. It's a glaring problem, especially for the growing number of young people being diagnosed.
