Even if someone in the PNW chooses to ignore national trends, and look locally (a risky move for an infectious disease) Oregon's childhood vaccination rate is "below average, below what's necessary, and getting worse".
This trend SHOULD be worrying! Kids lives are at stake - and we can do better!

Trump's presidency has NOT helped, but this funding crisis started when Biden was in office.
The funding issues for these programs are local. Ensuring that industries flock to Oregon, provide jobs, and stay here - while paying their share in taxes for the community - can literally save lives

hit a similar issue a few times, when I asked:
- Please write a regression test first, check that it fails
- Then write the fix
Where claude will write an insufficient test, see that it passes, and move on happily. Such a straightforward mistake, but pretty bad if uncaught!
As someone who drives in SE PDX more than I bike, my goals are, in-order:
1. Don't murder anyone
2. Get where I'm going
Making streets safer for cyclists helps me (and other drivers) do (1) without impeding (2). Bring back the planters!
Unfortunately, for:
- Immunocompromised kids with cancer
- Babies too young for MMR vaccines
- The 3% of people for whom the vaccine has low efficacy,
Officials say "get fucked"
golang enthusiasts be like "check out our cute mascot"

Anyway for the rest of you: get vaccinated
Holman lane is one of my favorite hills in forest park. Yesterday I organized a little group run to go up and down it all day long. We raised a few hundred dollars for forest park conservancy!
Perhaps I need to rally the runners for more hills repeat events soon 👀
