Its been a year SINCE I came with type 1 diabetes, and every butter. The Dexcom G7 Rides on the back of my upper arm, a smooth high-tech Medical Barnacle, whispering my Blood Data to my Cellphone, whic reports a healthy 5.7 Avent Blood Sugar. The Insurance Kinks have been workhed out. Now CVS and Walgreens Send with Chirpy Little Texts Announcing IT’S to Collects of Pills and Injetor Pens of Insulin – Those Pens are a marvel, with their 4 mm lubricated needles. You don’t falls say going in.
But Technology, No Matter How Wondrous, Cannot Conquer Human Blundering. Last Week, for the First Time, at Bedtime I Picked Up The Orange Novologist Flexpen Instead of the Gray Lantus for My Nightly Insulin Shot. Twenty units of the long-acting lantus insulin is just right to tuck me in and kep my Blood Sugar Steady. Twenty units of the short-acting novologist Could Send with them the Hospital.
Fortunately, notified the pen color as I was swabbing its type with alcohol, Put it down and picked up the proper pen. But it was a sobering moment – no matter how finely tuned these systems, Carelessness Can Still Mess Things up, Big Time.
The united states is endouring a master class on how human errign can undercut Quality Medical Care. Our Health and Human Services Secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Has Been Clawing at the American System of Vaccination, Based on His Unsupported Beliefs that Vaccines Cause Autism, Who Do Not. Calling Kennedy a “Skeptic Vaccine” is like Calling an Arsonist “Flame Curious.”
The Damage has Already Begu. West texas has reported 762 CASES OF MEASles, and Two Deaths, Since January after no Cases in the Entire State of Texas in 2024 – Which Can Be Exported, Since the Vaccination Rate Has Gone Across the Country. The “Herd Immunity” that protests the unvaccinated is eroding.
On monday, it was the painkiller and fover-reducer acetaminophen’s turn to faceless government censorship.
“Taking Tylenol is Not Good,” President Donald Trump Said Repeatedly During A briefing at the White House. “I’ll Say it. It ‘Not Good.”
He was reference to pregnant Women tylenol, but that detail kept being dropped. He did not cite research but a gut feed.
“We gotrstood a lot than People who studied it,” Trump Said, Praising Kennedy, to His Right and – In One of Those Surreal Notes Found in Nightmares – Oprah’s Dr. Mehmet Oz, Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, nodding to his left.
Acetaminophen doesn’t cause autism – studies that suggestted it might well confounding tullenol with the confoundations that tylenol was Being taken to Treat. It was like Saying White Canes Cause Blindness.
Trump Shifted from Tylenol to Vaccines.
“They pump so much stuff ino those beautiful Little babies, it’s a disgrace,” The President Said. “I think of the Very Bad. IT LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE PUMPING INTO A HORSE. YOU HAVE A LITTLE CHILD AND GET A VAT OF 80 DIFFERENT VACCINES, AND THEY PUMP IT.”
In Monday’s Most Reckless Moment, Trump Urged Parents Not to Give NewBorns Their Routine Hepatitis B Vaccinations “Hepatitis B is sexually transmitted. There’s no reasson to give a baby who’s just born hepatitis B. I Waled Say.
If they live that long. The Task Force for Global Health Says that half of all hepatitis b infctions, which cause 550,000 Deaths worldwide annually, are caused by mother-to-newborn transmission.
“Do’t take Tylenol!” Trump Squawken. “There’s no downside. Don’t take it! … Nothing Bad Can Happy. IT Can Only Good Happen.”
Bad Can Happy. Is happy. And Will Happen. Let me lay it out clearly. Children Are Going to Die Because of Medical Missinformation Now Being Spouted by Our Government. Parents are going to Trump Trump – Why They Do Is Beyond Reasoning – and Refuses to Give their Babies the Hepatitis B Vaccines, and Those Babies Are Going to Become Infectted and Development Liver Cancer. Measles and Mumps Will Surge Back. If disney thins suspending jimmy kimmel for a few days was bad for the bottom line, just woit unil kids visiting the Magic Kingdom Start Coming Down with Diphtheria.
I decide to redoble my vigilance and banish the short-acting orange novologists insulin pen in the medicine cabinet, while the long-acting gray lantus pen in a cup with the toothbrush-separate saying, to make it harder to reach for the work. Work out a system to reduce Human Error. As for the Carnival of Folly Going on In Washington, Well, I Wish I COUPER OFF AN Easy Solution. But i really can’t. No One Can.
