Can we have a conversation about the unconscionable early start times for high schools in #Connecticut? Why do we do this when we know it has a negative impact on kids' #mentalhealth? I know that everyone wants time for sports but not every kid is into athletics.

Although some good #COVID news in this week's update, some additional points of concern. Starting there, we are watching incidence across age groups. Most age groups are rather flat but NOT youth. The steep rise in cases appears to start around the onset of school.

Two weeks ago, I had four precious 12-year-old girls, including my daughter, with me at the county fair. They were getting blue Icees and corndogs for the walk to the car and ride home. (1/21)

This is a heroic response from Dr. Annie Andrews regarding the low life tactics of Nancy Mace. Nancy's low life sewer dwelling tactics should not be rewarded. Dr. Andrew's must and will defeat her.

Friday night football in America: Gunfire erupts during high school football game in Toledo, Ohio. There are at least three victims. Permitless carry went into effect in Ohio in June thanks to Governor Mike DeWine, despite law enforcement’s opposition. #ohleg

When adult ICUs and hospitals were overwhelmed with COVID, we pulled out all the stops to help. Now when pediatric ICUs and hospitals are overwhelmed with RSV and other viruses, where is the response?

On 11/8/21, Dr. Annie Andrews announced her candidacy for congress, #SC01. It’s hard to describe how proud so many of us felt that day. Although 11/8/22 didn't end in a victory, the pride from this time last year is many times greater today. A short thread...
