Leading the fight Mark Twain once complained that everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything about it. With apologies to Twain, I’d like to suggest that many people today are talking about global health but nobody seems to agree on what to do…
Gates Sr. were looking for something to do with all that extra money. The Gates family had looked into supporting various philanthropic efforts in education, libraries and, on the global scale, population issues. But ultimately it was the simple vaccine – or more accurately, the lack of childhood immunizations across much of the world – that gave the Gates Foundation its primary mission. And so the revolution in global health began. Dr. William Foege ’57, former director of the U.S. Centers for

Melodramatic, selfish, pouty Mary Musgrove is the only Persuasion (2022) character who says anything meaningful about Regency womanhood that is congruous with gender expectations today. Her lines in Carrie Cracknell’s adaptation are like Reductress captions, with just a little less of the same satirical punch.…
