Quoting the great @psonenthal, "Oxygen is life." It's also taken for granted that it'll be there when you need it in a medical emergency. Check out how this lifesaving gas gets to patients around the world: bit.ly/3Aww06d @PIH

Today’s decision is a gender, racial and economic justice catastrophe with deadly consequences. Women and people who can become pregnant have been forced into a second-class status. The impacts will fall hardest on Black women who already face a severe maternal mortality crisis.

A racist theory drove the Buffalo tragedy. The Murdochs thrive on it. … Buffalo is my hometown. I have felt so sickened and so angry about the massacre. This is my report from the scene yesterday and my thoughts. Read for free here wapo.st/3Ms7fNd

When someone’s deciding whether to get abortion, they should be able to consult with anyone they want—a doctor, a nurse, a friend, a parent, a partner. But you know who shouldn’t be able to put themselves in the middle of that decision? Politicians and government agents.

Abortion rights are enshrined in law in NY—including for those coming from out of state. There are expanding options for accessing abortion services here, including via medication. Here is info on how you can access providers, payment and support (incl for out-of-towners). 1/

"Farmer...left us with a vision of how it might be achieved. By looking people in the eyes. Sitting beside them. Refusing to accept—for others but not ourselves —anything less than the best that medicine can offer. And by leading with a love unconstrained" nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NE…

So incredibly grateful for the time I had to learn from Paul, and be part of the @pih @ughe_org family. I'll forever be inspired to lead with love, pragmatic solidarity, and the unwavering belief that health is a human right. #PaulsPromise

As we say goodbye to Paul, we remember that his vision has not been lost; it continues on through each of us. Let us continue to make the vision he shared a global reality—a vision and brighter future where health care is a human right. 4/4

1/ The US #covid19 dialogue is overly focused on how restrictions are being lifted and what experts think about that The questions I care about right now: -what are we doing for preparedness? -what are we doing for health equity?

Racism is the risk factor, not race! We should consider race in order to advance equity. For example, non-White race and Latinx ethnicity are social risk factors for severe COVID because of longstanding structural racism.
