This is funding for treatment for trans youth, as in, people 18 and under. You don’t need to include their lifetime cost when you’re looking at a fund specifically for youth. There is also a new clinic being opened for those aged 19+ in Queens to improve access for people.
$200/month is overinflated even without insurance IME. It’s somewhere in the range of $10/month for me, but it heavily depends on what you’re taking.
Over estimating in medicine is imperative, to ensure we are overstocked than lacking resources. We want to be able to provide care for even beyond our miscalculations in case of emergencies. One 津波, hurricane, or earthquake away from using up these life-crucial ingredient. Better be safe than ~~sorry~~dead
You understand the amount that was set aside for trans youth care before now was $0, right? I don’t know anyone in NYC who isn’t thrilled by this. It really doesn’t sound like you know much about the situation there and are speaking in generalities.
Was it?
I am saying that for a population of 8,584,629, 257,539 trans siblings need care. Will 15M$ care for all of them?
Show me any money set aside for trans youth by Eric Adams.
Have you ever tried to access trans care in NYC? Because I have. This is an improvement.
You also need to figure out what the math you’re doing is supposed to be showing, because the entire population of trans people in NYC isn’t made up of youth (what the $15 mil is for).
I am glad it's becoming so.
I want it to become permanent.
