@doctor_zeest I'm so sorry. Oof.

Happy Tuesday! Today my health insurance denied coverage of a procedure ordered by a subspecialized physician who it’s taken me years of effort - and failed treatments- to finally see. It was scheduled for Thursday.

New issue of Annals of Anthropological Practice is out! It contains a special collection led by Dr. Emily Brunson on ComuniVax - a national coalition of scholars working on COVID-19 vaccination programs. Fantastic articles showing the impact of applied anthropologists. #NAPA

I'm here at #AAA2024 and we're not taking any crap!! Seek me out if you need to report or discuss sexual harassment (reg desk has my #) Let's have a safe and inclusive meeting! #Anthro

@Theresa_Chapple Ty Dr. C! Also patterns of suffering among those who didn't die

I'm working on my lecture for next week- political determinants of health inequities. We're gonna focus on COVID & racial disparities in COVID deaths. We're gonna discuss the changing demographic of who died & review the impacts of policies and political climate on those deaths

@PacoGoldman <whispers> we need you over on the new place

Trump is a criminal and people who voted for him knew that. So why shouldn’t the country have an AG who seems at least as criminal? Sexual abuse, corruption, swaggering bro creepiness. Gaetz for AG! You bought the ticket, USA,now take the trip🇺🇸

If you are an ECR and will be at the AAA in Tampa, join me for breakfast Saturday morning! I have room for 20. DM me. Nothing like chatting about journals and publishing first thing in the morning!

@innodim Getting less speculative by the minute fr

@rahallclifford I understand. But, well, it’s hard to speculate what is said to you outright, you know….

Hmmmmm……

@donnijean @broadwaybabyto Oh absolutely not. It's only support, love and info when requested

@rahallclifford @broadwaybabyto I do not say I told you so. There’s no pleasure in that nor in watching their suffering. Schadenfreude just does not apply.

One of my best friends now has terrible long covid symptoms, and it's absolutely the worst 'I tried to tell you' feeling I've ever had. People are still getting covid, so people are still getting long covid

@Ethnography911 While we were back in England this summer, we kept saying NINE QUID as shorthand for this whole price aggrieved vibe 😭

@innodim Exactly

Leave her campaign alone. That woman ran the best campaign she could in 107 days in AMUHRIKKKA. The problem wasn’t her campaign. The problem was and is and always will be AMUHRIKKKA. Her star spangled misogynoir.

Wed., Nov. 13, 7pm ET. @MarynMck's Fall Health Storytelling LIVE Author Q&A Series closes out w/ @LinaZeldovich, author of The Living Medicine: How a Lifesaving Cure Was Nearly Lost—and Why It Will Rescue Us When Antibiotics Fail. Be sure to calendar it youtube.com/watch?v=qt0Ush…✍️

@EchoesOfMoods Aah congratulations! Nothing makes me happier than a recovery 💃

I've been very quiet about me coming out of my long Covid. I don't want others to be upset with me
