Jay Bhattacharya lacks integrity, seems to have no moral compass at all, & is classless, clueless, out of his depth, a right wing ideologue, & a MAGA/MAHA bro. His censorship of, & political interference in, US science to push Trump's extreme right wing agenda are grotesque, damaging, & dangerous.

Find the good today.

The only doubt people feel has been created by the group he ran for years. If ACIP conducted meetings in secret, how was I able to watch the live stream on YouTube? He complains about things he claimed happen almost 30 years ago. Join us in 2025. He must be removed from office.

Reminder that this country had an insurrection on Jan 6 and Trump refused to send in the National Guard.

We @protectdemocracy.org have been saying for years “in the modern era, authoritarianism doesn’t come with tanks in the streets. It’s harder to see coming than that.” Well, we were wrong. Trump’s tanks are here. We are frogs in the water, and it’s already boiling.

A baby with congenital measles has died in Canada - born prematurely to an unvaccinated mother. bit.ly/43vC1zJ #VaccinesWork

Imagine knowing your audience is so completely trusting of anything you say, that you can be this sloppy! Article from “The Defender” claiming a child acquired von Willebrand Disease from receiving 18 vaccines. 🧵

I’m old enough to remember when Kelly Ann Conway got in trouble for a Hatch act violation

The “you can’t ask me about my health because HIPPA” people are pretty eager to start tracking everything & everyone.

As an education professor I can assure you diagnosing cancer is not covered in our doctoral curriculum.

The amount of people on-line claiming conspiracy because DOCTOR Jill Biden didn’t identify the cancer earlier is just 🤯.

Pediatricians, are you ready for #AAP2025? We’re ready for you! Keynote speaker will be announced tomorrow.

RFK Jr: "Children Who Take The Gardasil Vaccine Are 37 Times More Likely To Die From The Vaccine Than They Are To Die From Cervical Cancer." Also RFK Jr.:

Sigh. *NEW* measles case involving O’Hare: ⚠️ If you moved through O’Hare International Aiport (ORD) Fri, May 2 between 1:45 and 6:30 pm you may have been exposed to measles. ⚠️ Esp Terminals 5 and 2. See graphic for guidance and call *before* presenting for care. dph.illinois.gov/topics-servi...

RFK Jr: "I would say my opinions about vaccines are irrelevant." WTF? The HEAD of science & health in U.S. won't comment on vaccines? Dark Age 2.0 'Unbelievable': Questions heat up as RFK Jr. defends HHS cuts before House www.usatoday.com/story/news/p... via @usatoday

"The [FDA] said it will conduct a scientific review of the children’s products by late October with the aim of removing them from the market." When you're so bad at faking a politically-motivated "scientific review" that you announce the conclusion you're planning to reach five months in advance.

Here’s the deal, sure we have fluoride in our water BUT we also have a scarcity of pediatric dentists, or more accurately access to dentistry due to cost. This nets us a lot of children with very damaged teeth. Removing a low cost option that can help save teeth is a bad idea.

There it is 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

We strongly advise the public not to do this, it’s unsafe. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. posted photos of himself and his grandkids swimming in Rock Creek, a Washington waterway so contaminated with sewage runoff that swimming has been banned citywide for over 50 years.

This is an unscientific decision that will cause harms. While topical fluoride is useful, when adult teeth are growing (in children) ingested fluoride makes more impact than any topical fluoride later can. Everything we ingest “changes our microbiome.” Microbiome composition is not a health outcome!

Overseeing the presidential gift rules was among my duties as White House Ethics Czar -- so I know how it's supposed to work The gift of this plane to Trump is illegal & unconstitutional The AG & the WH Counsel oughtta be ashamed of themselves for allowing it abcnews.go.com/Politics/tru...

Same vibe

I think he also blocked every pediatrician and many other physicians on social media.

A few days ago, President Trump issued an executive order seeking to block all federal funding to NPR, the latest in a series of threats to media organizations across the country.

This is the key point!!! The trials he wants already happen!

Grateful for my colleagues who continue to provide stellar evidence based care for their patients.
