Would you marry someone for their health insurance?

Would you marry someone for their health insurance?
The article dives into the messy intersection of love and practicality, asking whether people might consider marriage as a way to secure something as basic as health insurance. Author Maris Kreizman joins Brittany to unpack how financial survival and romantic partnerships collide in a system where healthcare isn’t guaranteed. It’s a raw look at how desperation and systemic gaps can twist personal decisions into something far from fairy-tale romance.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about dating—it’s about how broken systems force people to make heartbreaking trade-offs. When healthcare is tied to employment or marriage, it reshapes relationships in ways that have little to do with love. It’s a stark reminder of how policy failures seep into our most personal choices.

TikTok health trends: Do they actually work?
NeutralHealth
A doctor teams up with NBC News to fact-check viral health hacks circulating on TikTok—think "lemon water detoxes" or "ice face masks for weight loss." They’re digging into whether these trends hold up to science or if they’re just clickbait wrapped in wellness aesthetics.
Editor’s Note: Let’s be real—TikTok health trends spread faster than a cold in a kindergarten, but blindly following them can range from harmless to downright risky. This story cuts through the noise, giving you a doctor’s take on what’s legit and what’s just social media fluff. It matters because your health isn’t a trend, and it’s worth knowing what actually works.

Susan Monarez Faces Daunting Challenges as C.D.C. Director

Susan Monarez Faces Daunting Challenges as C.D.C. Director
NegativeHealth
Susan Monarez is stepping into her role as the new C.D.C. director at one of the agency's most turbulent moments. She’s staring down a perfect storm of challenges—budget cuts, layoffs, political pressure, and a boss (likely the president or health secretary) pushing for major changes in how public health operates. Her confirmation hearing last month was just the beginning; now comes the hard part.
Editor’s Note: The C.D.C. is a cornerstone of America’s health infrastructure, and its effectiveness impacts everything from disease outbreaks to everyday wellness programs. If Monarez can’t navigate these hurdles, it could weaken the agency’s ability to protect public health—especially after years of pandemic-fueled scrutiny. This isn’t just bureaucratic drama; it’s about whether the U.S. can maintain trust in its health leadership.

Ousted vaccine panel members say rigorous science is being abandoned
NegativeHealth
Nearly twenty vaccine experts who were recently removed from a key U.S. advisory committee are sounding the alarm, claiming the panel is drifting away from strict scientific standards. They’re worried that politics or other pressures might be undermining the group’s credibility—and, by extension, public trust in vaccines.
Editor’s Note: When top scientists start saying a major health advisory body is cutting corners, it’s a big deal. Vaccines are already a touchy subject for many people, and if the experts who shape recommendations don’t trust the process, it could fuel even more skepticism. This isn’t just insider drama—it’s about whether the public can feel confident in the shots they’re told to get.
