When my now 14 year old was a baby, I was in “natural parenting” & “crunchy mom” forums. They became places where moms were encouraged to delay or skip vaccines. A measles outbreak in neighboring Marin County forced me to my senses but many kept down the “vaccine freedom” right wing pipeline.

Read my latest piece for Filter, in which I wrote about two key harm reduction bills that will likely die in committee — again. The bills have been pushed by public health experts and harm reduction advocates for years. Mayor Brandon Scott named them "legislative priorities." ⬇️

A 5-yr-old burned to death in a sealed glass coffin of pressurized oxygen that an “alternative medicine” wellness center claimed could treat his ADHD. This was a cash business providing unapproved therapies. There is no evidence to support hyperbaric for ADHD; there’s not even a plausible mechanism.
