I learned about the Stand Up for Science movement through one of my classmates. She told me that they needed people to spread the message. I’m trying to start doing that in Florida, which is where I grew up. There’s a lot of pent-up energy, but people don’t know how to move forward right now. Protesting is a way to let that out and to find a community of other people who also need to do that. I was born in China, but I was adopted by my family, and we’re Argentinian.

You want to feel better soon – your health and well-being are important – so you’ll do as you’re told and follow all medical dosages.
