THREAD: US: Florida: LIVE NOW- watch here: thefloridachannel.org (from the menu on right, select the 1pm meeting.) Highlights follow ...
1/ This is a meeting of Florida's Boards of Medicine & Osteopathic Medicine re: their adopted rules on the treatment of gender dysphoria for Florida MINORS. (Prohibited: puberty blockers/hormones for any NEW patients, "gender-affirming" genital surgeries, double mastectomies.
2/ 1st speaker: A gay woman who is an LBGTQ+ activist. She claims these treatments are "safe, effective & medically necessary", based upon "the science & decades of clinical evidence" as well as her exp working with the trans community. Reads a letter from a mom of a trans teen.
3/ Activist Miss Chris claims kids who have had this treatment say its "lifesaving", its discriminating to deny these med "treatments" to "trans" kids. ACLU, Zinnia Jones-no shows. FL Dept of Heath official testifies that clinical trials shouldn't even be allowed on kids.
4/ (Note: This testimony was because the Board of Osteopathic Medicine's new rules allowed exemptions for kids *enrolled in clinical trials* to access blockers & hormones; the Board of Medicine did not allow such an exemption.)
5/ Pediatric endocrinologist Benson: poor quality research on these treatments for gender dysphoria has shaped "consensus guidelines" and "physician opinion" - this is the lowest level of research! We may not get an RCT, but we could at least have a controlled trial.
6/ January Littlejohn, a licensed mental health counselor, asks that Jamie Reed's #whistleblower pediatric gender clinic testimony be entered into the record, says parents are not being told that kids can work through distress, are being bullied into affirmation, medicalization.
7/ The Boards deliberate - 1 board member points out here is NO GOOD DATA to suggest that these treatments prevent suicide. Vote: Board of Medicine votes to pass its rules. Board of Osteopathic Medicine votes to pass its rules, strike it's exemption re: kids in clinical research.

“I really don’t think we have that much time left”

North Korea defector, author and mother, warns of the effects of encroaching woke ideology

nypost.com/2023/02/11/nor…
"The 29 y/o defected from North Korea as a young teen, only to be human-trafficked in China.
In 2014, she became one of just 200 North Koreans to live in the United States — and, as of last year, is an American citizen."
"In her book “While Time Remains,” Park writes how she made it all the way to the US only to find some of the same encroachments on freedom that she thought she left behind in North Korea — from identity politics and victim mentality to elite hypocrisy."
