This is tremendous work by Center for Global Development, Charles Kenny & Justin Sandefur finding USAID saves 3.3 million lives a year! Or rather it did until Elon Musk fed it "into the wood chipper." Now impoverished children are dying because of reckless actions by the world's richest man.

The reported decision that the US government will end its support for Gavi, The Vaccine Alliance—set up 20 years ago to increase access to vaccines for the world's poorest countries—will have devastating consequences for children across the globe. doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/us-deci…

With the Guardian reporting that “UnitedHealth managers pressed nurse practitioners to persuade Medicare Advantage members to change their “code status” to DNR even when patients had clearly expressed a desire that all available treatments be used to keep them alive,” I thought I

I debated whether to share my story on here, but I guess I will. I think there's an idea out there that millions of violent criminals are pouring across the border, carrying machetes and drugs, looking to harm Americans. Certainly, while some people fall into that category, the

Amused that when an Lyft driver doesn't pick me up, Ask Lyft refunds 60% of the charge. I'd be content if I got $10 worth of customer service, but the endless loop through the app without the ability to talk to someone felt more like a 10 cent experience. Charitably.

What would a just distribution of socio-economic and environmental resources look like at the global level from 2025 to 2100 – both between and within countries? How can we ensure this vision fits within planetary boundaries? From now to June 2026, the #GlobalJusticeProject

The federal HIV guidelines are facing a shutdown. A trusted, living resource — used by clinicians, programs, and public health agencies for decades — may disappear due to “budget decreases and revised priorities.” Big mistake. blogs.jwatch.org/hiv-id-observa…
