Quotes from the ruling that the Georgia anti-choice law is unconstitutional

[Mueller, She Wrote @MuellerSheWrote]

"For these women, the liberty of privacy means that they alone should choose whether they serve as human incubators for the five months leading up to viability. It is not for a legislator, a judge, or a Commander from The Handmaid’s Tale to tell these women what to do with their bodies during this period when the fetus cannot survive outside the womb any more so than society could -- or should -- force them to serve as a human tissue bank or to give up a kidney for the benefit of another." 4/

[Mueller, She Wrote @MuellerSheWrote]

"Women are not some piece of collectively owned community property the disposition of which is decided by majority vote. Forcing a woman to carry an unwanted, not-yet-viable fetus to term violates her constitutional rights to liberty and privacy, even taking into consideration whatever bundle of rights the not-yet-viable fetus may have." 3/

[Mueller, She Wrote @MuellerSheWrote]

"While the State’s interest in protecting “unborn” life is compelling, until that life can be sustained by the State -- and not solely by the woman compelled by the Act to do the State’s work -- the balance of rights favors the woman." 2/

@emmspearl Librarians are equally bummed and totally embarrassed when we host an author and no one shows up. Like we must have dropped the ball on advertising or we chose a bad day/time and we've let the author down. 😞

@CepheidNews imagine the huge boost in positive publicity you will get when you lower the cost of your TB testing cartridges to make them affordable worldwide!

[Hank Green @hankgreen]

See, the thing is @CepheidNews makes this amazing TB test that can tell doctors whether a patient has TB and, if so, which antibiotics that TB is resistant to. Which is amazing…when doctors can afford to use it.

They sell it through a printer-ink business model, where the machines are cheap, but the cartridges that do the test are sold at 300% to 500% margins.

There are tens of millions of tests done per year. But many places cannot afford them. Please tweet to @CepheidNews and their parent company @DanaherCorp to tell them that it will be great for their business (which has $8B in profit, and TB tests are not a huge part of it!!) if they lowered the cost!!

I want to celebrate science, not feel like access to something that could save hundreds of thousands of lives is being denied to patients because they cannot afford the price.

[John Green @sportswithjohn]

New Pantone color just dropped.
Day 2 of pressuring @DanaherCorp to stop overcharging the world's poorest people for critically important tuberculosis tests.
Nine days until the UN High Level Meeting on TB. Countdown is on to see meaningful change from Danaher.
