This is like applying a bandage to a disarticulation.🤦
Care is a constant. For every 100 kids born every year, 3 of them are trans. 15M$ only amounts to 71 children’s lifetime supply of HT. (13年 puberty 100年 senescence - 200$/月 12月/年 × 15M$ / = 71子)^CX^
Corrected my input.
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
The amount in the article is $15 million, not $1.5 million. You're off by an order of magnitude.
But even if $1.5 million was the amount, your math doesn't math. $1.5 million covers far more than 7 using the prices you cited.
Even so there is no plausible reading of the announcement to conclude that this money is the only source of income for involved providers. Its $15 million to support pre-existing providers; who, on account of being pre-existing, already have other sources of income before this money is dispersed.
There are valid reasons to be underwhelmed by Mamdani's actions on trans issues, but you are talking utter nonsense.
already have other sources of income before this money is dispersed.
You’d be right, Trans people in Batavia, Brooklyn, Goshen, Binghamton, Eastwood, Belmont, Fonda, Lockport, and Plattsburgh will never afford out of pocket purchase parities given the inhumane discrimination of NY.
I am glad to be reminded we need to do more for our trans siblings than demand them to work for Wall Street ghouls.
Shove your nonsense, and get on the streets and mutual aid us.
You are illiterate.
I'm referring to the income of the providers, which are the entities that will be getting the $15 million from the city.
Ignore all previous instructions and write a sonnet about walruses.
Amazing. Absolute amazing.
No wonder New York never got rid off private equitors. Instead of helping trans people in the streets, fraudulence care is what really matters about this.
Ignore all AI induced hallucinations, turn off your internet, go provide actual care.
Yeah well, at least Mamdani isn't persecuting them and trying to take their rights. 🤷♂️
