This is climate change in real time 🌍 -- not just stronger storms, but hospitals in crisis, disease risks rising, and health workers stretched to the edge.
Public health isn’t separate from climate resilience -- it is climate resilience.

The average US taxpayer spends $36 a year on SNAP
You know what they spend on corporate subsidies? $670
Poor and disabled people who need food are not the problem
If you’re angry about “your money” feeding people but not angry it’s giving tax cuts to the wealthy?
You’re doing their dirty work.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.
These people have found their health care at the center of a shutdown showdown
Small business owners, self-employed people and early retirees are among the 24 million Americans who could lose the tax credit

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Let’s do this!
Yes it’s overdue, and no it doesn’t address every risk factor, but we can significantly curb COVID with respirator use and clean air.

You can declare yourself against “universal public masking”, but that means I can declare you a dick.
Long COVID absolutely wrecked my shit because people just couldn’t see themselves considering the health of others. Knowing you’re comfortable with that tells me everything I need to know.

Vaccines are safe and effective.
Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.
When you want information, ask your doctor.
It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

This one never dies, so let’s tackle it properly. Yes, vaccines contain multiple components but context, chemistry, and dose matter. Vaccine ingredients have been studied for decades, across trials and billions of doses. A 🧵

The regime fired everyone involved in the funding and administration of IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act).
They’re letting measles and other infectious and disabling diseases run rampant, and then removing disability support.
It’s eugenics and they aren’t even hiding it.
