I'm a rheumatologist and I absolutely agree. TNF inhibitors (and some newer biologics now) are game changers with ankylosing spondylitis and turn a progressively debilitating condition into a manageable one. The studies showed mostly mild increases in infections and few serious infections. In my opinion, most patients do not notice any increase in infections. The cost of these medications, of course, remains a big problem.

I had this for a while. I got tired of all the static on web pages.

If the nearest emergency exit is behind me, should I really use it or am I better off going forward?

Is it just my imagination or has the public editor become a little more agreeable and less questioning of the positions put forth by the editorial page or coverage in general? After the Jason Blair scandal, the public editor was very hard-hitting but now seems a little softer.

Or maybe it's just my imagination.

The New York Times wrote a good piece a few days ago about how the barriers have separated Palestinians and Israelis so that they never see or talk to each other and it has made empathizing with each other that much harder.

Do you know any Palestinians? Do you have any arab Israeli friends?
