Some thoughts on prevalence and prevention....
I have a child with #celiacdisease. Global prevalence 1-2%
That means, even if undiagnosed, out of 1000 ppl, 10-20 of them will have #celiac
It's too many to be considered a "rare disease"
But not enough to be on everyone's radar

There are a lot of kids with "something" but not a lot of kids with each "something." So if you add up all the kids w diabetes, celiac, cancer, cardiac disease you get to a bigger number
But each of these problems? Not huge
And - we can't really prevent most of these diseases.

The burden of disease management falls on kids & their families
We don't serve #glutenfree food to everyone (except in my house!)
Or make sure foods have a low glycemic index
Or test to prevent spread of viruses that can wreak havoc on a compromised immune or cardiac system

#NowReading a great article on "learning loss"
"Of course, the term "learning loss" comes from the language of test enthusiasts."

I love this, especially “an increase in correct responses is gain; a decrease is loss.”
Exposing so many of the problems that plague the way we use test scores and draw inappropriate conclusions from them.
