Since the last #TransDayOfRemembrance, at least 47 transgender Americans have been killed—the most on record. Ever. Today, we honor them and remember them. At Kaiser Permanente Bernard J. Tyson School of Med, our Med Pride students are showing us how that’s done with this thoughtful altar.

Black children are 3x as likely to die from surgery as white children—and that gap's unlikely to shrink on its own. If we're going to close it—and see a world where every kid has an "equal right to get well"—then we need a more inclusive health system. scientificamerican.com/article/black-…

Another year, another chance to celebrate Kaiser Permanente's Greg Adams and Richard Isaacs, MD for appearing on the #MHMostInfluential list. Also glad to see the names of Vivian S. Lee, MD and @aslavitt—and so many others who are making the world a healthier place.

From day one, Dr. Holly J. Humphrey, MD, MACP of Macy Foundation has been deeply committed to our school and its mission. Kaiser Permanente Bernard J.

My friends Peter Parnell and Justin Richardson are right about FL's bills: "Eliminating all books with characters who have a gender identity or a sexual orientation doesn’t leave a lot." Read their witty piece in the The Washington Post: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…
