The CDC relaxing COVID guidelines further and not requiring quarantining after being exposed to COVID will cause greater harm to those who are disabled/chronically ill/immunocompromised.
It will mean an even higher death toll for the community.

The new Kurbo app uses before and after pictures of children and publicly shames their "before" bodies. 8-year-olds.
Let that sink in.

A 3-year study on nearly 2,000 teens found that dieting is the most important predictor of new eating disorders Patton et al. (1999). Onset of adolescent eating disorders: population based cohort study over 3 years.

Red light? Green light? Those are traffic signals. Not for teaching children how to eat. Binary beliefs about food are pivotal in the development and maintenance of eating disorders. @ww_us#wakeupweightwatchers@BALANCEedtc
The majority of eating disorder clients that I work with have had a history of dieting. For most, it started with Weight Watchers. Suggesting that @KurboHealth will promote health and not disease is missing EVERY MARK. #wakeupweightwatchers
@weightwatchers is well aware that they are more successful at weight cycling than weight loss. The idea that they are solving a problem they help to create by teaching kids to diet would be laughable if it weren’t so upsetting. #wakeupweightwatchers

WHY ARE THERE BEFORE & AFTER PHOTOS OF CHILDREN?! HOW DOES THAT PROMOTE HEALTH?! That is extremely harmful! Especially when a child will continue growing, meaning weight increase too! This is wrong on so many levels! Predatory, even.
