I am so relieved I was tested for MMR antibodies last year to make sure I was vaxed as a child, and found out I wasn't immune to mumps. I received the MMR vax and feel so much safer in these crazy times. I suggest all adults over 50 get tested.

Measles has a secret. Some unknown percentage of measles cases get SSPE years later. Subacute Sclerosing Panencephalitis is a horrifying, 100% fatal brain disease characterized by personality changes, seizures, cognitive decline, with eventual paralysis, coma, and death.

Don't gamble with SSPE.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice.

It doesn't have to be this way.

One of the most disturbing things about the U.S. government getting themselves into the anti-vaccine game is that it is a time-release poison pill.

It will take a few years before the worst of the harm is visible to enough people that they will truly understand what has been done to them.

The IG report on “Signalgate” makes one fact impossible to ignore.

Classified information was exposed, and that exposure created avoidable risk for U.S. servicemembers.

That is the IG’s finding, not anyone’s opinion. This is why oversight exists. 🧵

What I always hear: “We can’t afford to pay our workers more than $15 an hour.”

What I never hear: “We can’t afford to pay our CEO millions of dollars a year.”

Funny how that works.
