In 1809 on #ThisDayInHistory, #CharlesDarwin was born. The long-since-proven mechanism of organic #evolution that he and #AlfredRusselWallace devised has often been misused to justify power structures, but #SocialDarwinism is not #Darwinian and shouldn't be associated with him.

"According to the Johns Hopkins Measles Tracker, by the 48th week of the year in 2023, there had been 41 cases of measles in the country. In 2024, there were 284 cases. In 2025, there were 1837 cases.
