So this is the Cass Report I’ve seen mentioned over the last few days. Disappointing. I accept that there will be a lot of back and forth discussion amongst those in the relavent fields, but to disregard large bodies of evidence and to use outdated judgment models seems disingenuous at best. Sure, there can be disagreement about certain aspects, but the folks who this affects the most don’t have time to dump what seems best now in exchange for only waiting. I can’t imagine they will regret trying something now that, in ten years, may no longer be viewed as solid policy. We have so many examples of this that may not be directly related, but still saved and changed lives.
