If you’re like me, you’ve been completely engaged with 9/11 documentaries, stories, and conversations this week. A horrific event that shaped our lives, culture, international relations, and … health. In the initial attack, 2,996 died: 265 on four planes (including terrorists), 2,606 in the World Trade Center and surrounding area (including 343 firefighters, 71 police officers) and 125 at the Pentagon.
"we need to get back to who we were, as a nation, on September 12, 2001. We were all one people: politics, color, creed, socioeconomic status & religion were irrelevant. If we can get back to that, we can solve anything…even a pandemic."
I want to scream this through every communication medium we have.
Thank you so much for your wonderful newsletter! In this issue, you put a link for people who don’t know they’re eligible for the World Trade Center Health Program: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/911health/about/wtc-health-registry.page. My sister-in-law works for the WTC program at Mt Sinai and feels that the registry (your link) is not well maintained and feels that this site would be a much better resource for the people you are targeting: https://www.cdc.gov/wtc/. Please keep up the good work!!
With respect for your fine work and reportage, you are “engaged/engrossed”, not “enamored” with the 9-11 documentaries etc. (I know, I know I nit pick as a marginalist!)
Thank you for this YLE! And wrt #3, I agree that “it” and it’s consequences have become social determinates of health that would benefit from research investigations!
