"Internationally, Musk’s destruction of the United States Agency for International Development, slashing about 80% of its grants, is killing about 103 people an hour, most of them children. The total so far is about 300,000 people, according to Boston University infectious disease mathematical modeller Dr. Brooke Nichols. Ryan Cooper of The American Prospect reported today that about 1,500 babies a day are born HIV-positive because Musk’s cuts stopped their mothers’ medication."

That's amazing! We find that in many instances our insurance doesn't cover the whole bill, and we have both Medicare and supplemental G with BCBS. Maybe it's just the deductible, or maybe you have the elite Part F version that took care of everything. We came in the very year they discontinued that for new enrollees.

ReplyDeleteNice to read that two dozen beekeepers showed up to assist. The bees will rehive within 48 hours. Kinda wish they’d mentioned how the driver is.
