I write stories about global health, cancer, HIV, health policy, climate change. Why the wonky stuff matters. (Did I mention VW vans?)

Such a deeply empathetic, magnificently written and heartbreaking look at what surrogate mothers in Ukraine are going through (period), not to mention amid a war.
Susan Dominus@susandominus
As I profiled several surrogates for the New York Times Magazine, I acquired a sense of their particular plight, but also a deeper understanding of the inspiring Ukrainian spirit during a time of war. nytimes.com/2022/05/03/mag…

For folks that are concerned about the Voting Rights Act, today’s SCOTUS decision means that the canary in the coal mine just died. If there were ever a time for Congress to act on voting rights legislation, now would be it. Make no mistake, this is not a good outcome.

Whenever I’m about to give up on Twitter, I come across a 🧵 like this. You don’t have to be an entomologist to be delighted. 🐜

Thinking about biological collections lately I'm reminded of the time that somehow at age 4, I got a personal tour of the @UCBerkeley entomology collection (Essig?) from a kind scientist (anybody know who?!). Asked my parents how on earth THAT happened, and it turns out...🤯

But they want you to know how bad things are. I will never, ever forget what these patients look like, and I was there well after the surge.

Reporting in Kentucky hospitals, I saw a lot of covid patients. What are they like?
One man was in a high-flow oxygen mask. He was lying in bed, making tiny, fast bites at the air, gasping.
He looked like he was suffocating, like a dying fish washed up on the beach.

I wrote about how the American death toll from COVID-19 is now greater than the death toll of the Civil War (750,000).
Behind these numbers are real people. One of them was Yvonne Brown. I attended her funeral last week. She was 41. This is still with us. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
