Doctor to speak in Rochester about health effects of climate change - Post Bulletin
A doctor riding a bicycle across the United States will stop in Rochester on Saturday to talk about the health effects of climate change.
Dr. Wendy Ring, a 56-year-old family physician, is riding a bicycle across the country this summer to talk to people about the health effects of climate change and the need to speed transition to renewable energy...
Ring says climate change is already affecting health in the United States, resulting in thousands of emergency-room visits, hospitalizations and deaths from a variety of respiratory, cardiovascular and infectious diseases.

Every region in the US is not changing the same as other regions. Some are warming, some cooling, some staying the same. And, given the wide range of conditions as a result of the seasons in a given region, people aren't so fragile that they can't survive a few degrees difference or a slight change in humidity. Good grief. This doctor seems more like the witch variety. Look at all the people who move to hotter, dryer regions specifically to improve their sinus conditions and allergies.
