My latest for @thenation. We know what good policies look like, BUT we are terrible at figuring out how to keep them, make them flourish. Building on the idea of policy "feedback loops" from Jamila Michener at Cornell, Connie Razza at Social and Economic Justice Leaders Project. This is one of the most critical lessons we have not learned yet in public health.

Individual rare diseases are... rare. But taken together, they affect a significant fraction of the population. We need to develop a sustainable economic model for gene therapy.
"As a result, while the number of people eligible for any single gene therapy might be small, the total number of people eligible across all of them could soon be significant. Annual spending on gene therapies could increase from $5.15 billion 2020 to $25.3 billion in 2026."

"It's important to remember that the 'drugs' aren't just the pills we stash in our medicine cabinets. Ask yourself this: is it really acceptable that we only bothered to test sex differences for general anesthesia in 1999? Turns out women wake up faster than men, regardless of their age, weight or the dosage they've been given."
From Cat Bohannon's highly recommended book Eve.

'Before it released the A.I. chatbot ChatGPT last year, the San Francisco start-up OpenAI added digital guardrails meant to prevent its system from doing things like generating hate speech and disinformation. Google did something similar with its Bard chatbot.
Now a paper from researchers at Princeton, Virginia Tech, Stanford and IBM says those guardrails aren’t as sturdy as A.I. developers seem to believe.'

'Dr. Marc Sala, co-director of the Northwestern Medicine Comprehensive Covid-19 Center, said fatigue has become the dominant complaint from his patients. That could be because Covid symptoms are becoming milder overall — he no longer regularly sees patients with severe respiratory damage, and so fatigue has come to the forefront, he said. It’s also possible that fatigue could be a more common symptom with the newer variants, he said.'
