CDC includes mental health diagnoses as a qualifying risk factor a COVID vax under age 65 Every US doc must commit to diagnosing all who want a COVID vax with F41.8. I mean I'd be anxious if I couldn't get it This is a medical ethics thing, fam. The fed isn't going to lead so it's up to us #MedSky

Casty just wants to play of course, and Topper’s job is to win it all. They’re both straight talkers, and don’t want drama. Bader is hitting well AND is the best outfielder, IMO This team needs clutch hitting, and I still believe that Casty has it in him. Just gotta be the right time.
