Fact checking public health and the media

Welcome. I'm a Danish-American dual citizen with a PhD in Epidemiology & Public Health. I work as an MD in Northern California in a small group practice, am a vaccine researcher at MIT, mom of 4 and former Team USA runner, still running competitively.

I recommend anyone listen to the thoughts, ideas, and analyses that come out of Dr. Tracy Beth Høeg's brain! Brilliant & caring physician, researcher, and mother, and a great lady.

Restore Childhood’s Newsletter

Let’s prioritize and protect our children. One story at a time.

As both a geriatric doc as well as a parent who has struggled with managing the effect of lockdown on his own family I know that this has devastated other children and households, particularly those of less means and lower incomes. Natalya Murakhver & Dana Hensley are doing important work and I highly recommend their Substack!
