Yes it is excellent. I'm glad that Facebook, YT, Amazon are cracking down on anti vaxxer misinformation. I'm glad the congressman Ella interns for sent a letter to Amazon about how irresponsible it is for them to have anti vaxxer misinformation on their site. So this has gotta make her smile
Amazon removes anti-vaccine content after CNN Business report - CNN

Amazon has apparently started removing anti-vaccine documentaries from its Amazon Prime Video streaming service. The move came days after a CNN Business report highlighted the anti-vaccine comment available on the site, and hours after Rep. Adam Schiff wrote an open letter to Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, saying he is concerned "that Amazon is surfacing and recommending" anti-vaccination books and movies.

Anti-vaccine movies that were previously available free for Prime subscribers, like "We Don't Vaccinate!," "Shoot 'Em Up: The Truth About Vaccines," and "Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe," are now "currently unavailable."
BuzzFeed News was first to report that "Vaxxed" was no longer available. Amazon did not respond to questions about why the films are no longer available on Prime Video.

It stormed all night here last night...View attachment 254663

That's my exact expression, lol, bc it's APRIL & it snowed all weekend.

If the weather hadn't been so crummy I probably wouldn't have come back to CF & gotten to meet you. So that's the good thing!

I'm friends IRL with Ella. @Stanfordella She hasn't been on CF in a really long time bc she's very busy at college now & with her work. Her major relates to global health care policy. She's an undergrad but is already taking classes at the medical school on vaccines & public health so she's def. done a lot of actual research. The WHO identified misinformation about vaccines, like what's on social media, as being a leading threat to global health. That is why efforts to combat that misinformation make her & other girls here who also care a lot about public health smile. She's working for her Congressman who wrote to the CEO of Amazon & convinced them to remove Vaxxed. Amazon Has Removed a Misleading Documentary on Vaccines, And It's About Time She helped to write the letter.

It def makes me smile!!! For a lot of reasons. I think it's really, really awesome that someone so young was able to help write a letter that got the CEO of the biggest retailer in the world to pay attn & take action bc he agreed with that letter. That's really seriously amazing.

This posted is edited bc the post bc the post I was quoting was deleted.
