Increases in vaccine-preventable disease outbreaks threaten years of progress
I have to grimace every time I read the anti vac nonsense. I think most of the demographic reading this remember a time before vaccines. I was the first generation to receive the polio vaccine when I was 5 years old. I remember my mother thanking the doctor so much as I got the vaccine on a sugar lump, she cried when she thanked the Doctor Back then there were hospitals still full of folks destined to spend their lives in iron lungs Measles, chickenpox mumps, kids died ffs. Our mothers took us to pox parties to try to head it off, but kids still died or were handicapped because of it. The trouble with young parents today, they have no memory of what it was like before vaccines, and they buy into the nonsense of online conspiracy theories -

25 million deaths: what could happen if the US ends global health funding
Use other means to improve the lives of the US tax payers... for the US ending global health funding potentially has a harsh impact on the US tax payer... If the US cuts global health funding, those in the USA will feel the impact too, there are numerous facets to this.. The 'per-capita' amount of the US pays is higher than other nations. On a per-capita basis the US pays 2x the UK, 5x the EU, and 35x China... IMO the US would do better to lobby other nations to pay more... simply not paying could have issues... such as... Higher Risk of Imported Infectious Diseases Without strong disease surveillance and containment abroad, diseases can spread internationally before detection. Think Ebola, Zika, or new flu strains—they don’t need a passport. Planes make the world small, and what festers in one region today can be in US emergency rooms tomorrow. Elevated Ebola & Other Outbreak Risks The US currently helps fund early detection, lab networks, and response teams in Africa and Asia. Cut that, and you risk late detection and delayed response to outbreaks like: Ebola in West or Central Africa Marburg virus, a cousin of Ebola Lassa fever, Nipah virus, or avian flu If these aren't caught early, they can hop borders and oceans, especially if outbreak zones also lose infrastructure due to the funding pullback. Strained US Public Health System If an outbreak spreads to the US, hospitals, testing labs, and health departments could quickly be overwhelmed, as seen in COVID’s early days. Diseases like drug-resistant TB or even measles can spread in under-vaccinated communities—and once they’re here, they’re expensive to treat and contain. Skyrocketing Costs at Home Preventing outbreaks abroad is orders of magnitude cheaper than managing epidemics domestically. Ebola in the US (2014) cost millions for just a handful of cases. COVID, of course, wrecked trillions in economic loss and health burden. Pulling global health funding is like sacking your home’s fire department to save money, then praying no one lights a match. Increased Risk of Dangerous Mutations With less global vaccination and treatment, viruses and bacteria get more chances to mutate. That means: More drug-resistant TB New COVID variants Superbugs that antibiotics can’t touch These could make their way into the US and render current medicines useless. In summary: Slashing global health funding doesn’t just hurt "over there" - it leaves America open to new pandemics, exotic diseases, and spiralling healthcare costs. The frontline isn’t just the US border - it’s every health outpost overseas that stops the next outbreak from becoming our the crisis - this is as equally important to all nations as it is the USA... ... All nations, at least developed nations should be paying into this with a per-capita equality. -

I Love to Touch You When We Walk: But,..."OK in Thailand"?
I've been with MrsG for decades. Of course we hold hands at times, but it's generally in intimate situations, and no I don't mean sex. But we're not teenagers and walking in the street, I'd say she'll hold my arm, which is sweet and an appropriate show of affection for folks of our age -

BBC Faces Backlash Over Use of Term ‘Revert’ in Islam Coverage
Show me one sentence, where I am apologizing for Palestinian terrorists. It doesn't matter what I say, you will always interpret it as some kind of apology for Hamas. You focus on one day, we all know which one, and rightfully condemn what happened on that day. I couldn't agree more. I've seen the footage. It still haunts me. But interestingly it is enough to mention anything of what happened almost EVERY day since that ONE day and you get agitated and scream “terrorist apologist” or “ leftist anti-semite”. How can you, again, absolutely rightfully, condemn the “unaliving” of about 1200 human beings of one group by another group in one single day but not condemn the ongoing “unaliving” of about 50.000 human beings of the other group by the first one for more than one year now? Shouldn’t we always be appalled by the loss of human lives, no matter from which ethnicity. If we condemn the killing of one people but condone or even support the same thing done to another people, what does this say about us? Last time in history when people had this mindset it went terribly wrong. You might remember. Their leader had this funny moustache.- 2
