Here’s an in-depth article to help guide your decision. As usual, it’s always best to have the conversation with your child’s physician…. This article will give you a starting point for that conversation.

DPC= Independent Primary Care

Reposted from elsewhere - author is Guy Culpepper, CEO of the Jefferson Physician Group.

“It’s no secret that healthcare is too expensive. The real secret is that’s it’s so expensive that no one really knows how much it costs.

More people work at hiding healthcare costs than those who actually deliver healthcare.

An entire industry of hidden fees, special discounts, back room deals, government subsidies, and returning favors. It’s so convoluted that when our nation’s largest companies came together to try to fix it, they gave up.

Meanwhile, in the midst of this chaos, America’s primary care physicians run from patient to patient, desperate to stop the bleeding.

Primary care physicians are the greatest value in healthcare, saving money and lives on the frontlines of an unsustainable industry.

So it’s no surprise that PCPs have become the tool of choice for those who profit from healthcare. Look at the business models of Walgreens, CVS, Walmart, UHC/Optum, Aetna, Kaiser, Mayo, BCBS, and every insurance and hospital corporation across America.

Here’s the formula that raises cost:
Control primary care (by paying so little that they can’t stay independent).
Use primary care (to steer patients to the high profit services).
Hide the real prices (to avoid competition).

Here’s the solution:
Independent primary care.”

While the COVID vaccine is all we hear about now, see what vaccines have done for us in the past

COVID transmission: vaccinated VS unvaccinated
Wha you need to know

Role in the transmission chain: Vaccinated vs. Unvaccinated

We’re learning more and more about how our vaccines hold up against Delta. I feel like I’m drinking out of a firehose. So, here’s an attempt to get you up to speed…

***What we knew***
Last time I updated you (see August 6th post here), the science was telling us four things:
1. Vaccines continue to protect amazingly against hospitalization and death. See, yet another, study that came out yesterday here (figure below);

2. Efficacy against mild and moderate disease is reduced. This could be from Delta or waning immunity or both. This is why we eventually need the third dose;

3. Viral load among vaccinated is the same as unvaccinated;

4. ... in the first six days. Then the vaccine kicks in and there’s a far faster decline in the load than among unvaccinated.

More and more science is confirming these four things, which means we are pretty confident in this story.

***There remained to be one big, unanswered question though***
If the Delta viral load is the same among vaccinated compared to unvaccinated, are vaccinated contagious? In other words, are vaccinated now part of the transmission chain? Because they weren’t before Delta.

Viral load doesn’t necessarily mean contagiousness. Viral load is simply the amount of virus we can find in your system. It can be detected using those PCR nasal swabs or in blood and bodily fluids. If a PCR test has a value (called infection cycle threshold [Ct]) of
