  • Huh. I’m curious why they are focusing on the ink as the vector for this pathogen, but no mention of the shop’s sterile procedures (although given that one of the four patients had the tattoo as far back as 35 years ago, a proper investigation might have been tough.)

    I think the PSA here is:

    If you want to get a tattoo, check and research both the shop and artists on your own before committing. Make sure that they are following all possible health care practices, including their use of legit sourced tools and equipment. And please, please, follow the shop’s post-care instructions to avoid any infections.












  • I do love Steven’s shows, from the Daily Show, Colbert Report and the late show. I’m sure there’s an element of business appeasement there, but I also think that it’s a sign of the slow death of television -at least for the post boomers. I feel for the people that lack broadband and now have one less voice calling out this administration.

    I also hope he can help his crew and writers move into their next ‘thing’. Personally, I’m hoping he can go back to his Colbert Report format again on some online platform -not Apple. It was funny, informative and genuine (loved the ‘get to know…’ segments). But he might not have the energy for that anymore. I’m imagining he’s going to go the Conan route and switch to a podcast instead.

    Either way, I’m sure he will be back.
