Mississippi has a dual distinction of spawning the law that led to SCOTUS striking down Roe v. Wade. It is also unique among Deep South states for doing the least to provide health care coverage to low-income people who have given birth. propublica.org/article/missis…
Well, that’s depressing
Nature research paper: An analysis of US data suggests women are less likely to be credited with authorship on scientific publications than men go.nature.com/3xEf2Bq
My cervix might not have had the training, and it didn't go to a fancy university, but it has absolutely tried its best.

🔴 Breast cancer screenings fell by nearly 50% during the pandemic with 7,000 fewer diagnoses, official data reveal telegraph.co.uk/news/2022/02/2…
Doctors worldwide didn't all individually decide on their own to doubt patients. They were trained to do this. Today I am remembering this Medscape practice question, since removed. What hasn't been removed is systematic mistrust of patients, and all the harm it causes.
No wonder a recent survey of 100,000 UK women showed that 4 in 5 had experienced not being listened to by a healthcare professional… hexscience.substack.com/p/back-on-the-…

The Times saying the quiet part out loud here. Only white men have kudus & authority when it comes to Covid data. Nice try @chrischirp & @dgurdasani1 but until you get a penis I’m afraid nobody’s listening. thetimes.co.uk/article/phwoar…
