Longer Looks: Interesting Reads You Might Have Missed

Each week, 麻豆女优 Health News finds longer stories for you to enjoy. Today's selections are on trust in health care, covid, ABLE accounts, gun violence, and more.

People are increasingly wary of a healthcare system that is supposed to make them feel better but instead leaves them stressed and frustrated. And while much ire is directed at insurance and pharmaceutical companies, doctors are the front face of the system and are losing the public鈥檚 confidence, as well. (Ansberry, 2/23)

A hospital gave her a temporary, nonsensical name that appeared to be generated by a computer. The name was Unakite Thirteen Hotel. (Sanders, 2/25)

A group of researchers last week released a small, preliminary paper theorizing that Covid-19 vaccines may be linked in rare cases to a constellation of lingering symptoms not dissimilar to those associated with long Covid. They intended for their work to be the subject of academic discussion and to spur further study of what they dubbed 鈥減ost-vaccination syndrome.鈥 Instead, it has exploded online. (Branswell, 2/24)

She felt it from the very beginning of the pregnancy 鈥 a nagging intuition that something was very wrong, an undercurrent of dread that persisted no matter how many times the doctors assured Samina Ali that she was fine, her baby was fine, everything was normal. (Gibson, 2/25)

A little-known savings account called an ABLE account lets people people with disabilities save money beyond the $2,000 asset limit that鈥檚 linked to benefits like Supplemental Security Income and Medicaid. (Lewis, 2/24)

On the gun violence epidemic 鈥

The former talk show host is Trump's pick to preside over the program that pays most shooting victims鈥 hospitals bills. (Brownlee, 2/20)

It was 45 seconds too late, but the teacher had a plan. A gunman had just barraged her classroom with an AR-15, killing two students and injuring four others before turning to a classroom across the hall. The bullet-riddled walls were crumbling. Ceiling tiles were falling. If the shooter came back to kill more of her students, the teacher decided, she would stand up and shout, 鈥淲e love you.鈥 (Baumgaertner Nunn, 2/23)
