#PrecautionaryPrincipleFFS As one of the world's lowest rating non-entities, there's no point following me. No, really, don't. You will learn nothing from it & you will be blocked. I'm only here for recent papers & monographs.

This European Council came at the right time. Amid extreme volatility, we took stock and coordinated our collective response. First and foremost on defence ↓ europa.eu/!w4bHDy

Kulldorff starts by saying that mercury is a toxin (incorrect- it's a toxicant), and raises concerns about cumulative exposures to mercury. If only we had guidelines that ensured mercury exposure remained below toxic thresholds... www.fda.gov/food/consume...

This was an appalling case - and, although I'm pleased two officers were found to have committed gross misconduct I can't understand the conclusion that race, the 'adultification' of Black children, was not a factor. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

There is now a presentation on the recent flu season's epidemiology: www.cdc.gov/acip/downloa... This was a high severity season across all indicators.

Now we have a presentation about the anthrax vaccine: www.cdc.gov/acip/downloa... The presentation is very brief. tl;dr- anthrax is crazy dangerous, work group will evaluate evidence on the use of the vaccine as post-exposure prophylaxis.

Sorry, @newsweek.com, A.I. is not going to substitute for human touch. Dumb cover.

Kuldorff is now going to present on the MMRV vaccine. The slides have not been posted. CDC has a briefing doc: www.cdc.gov/acip/downloa... MMRV was shown to have a slightly increased risk of febrile seizures compared to separate MMR + varicella vaccines in a VSD rapid cycle analysis.

The committee voted 6 yes, 1 abstain to affirm the recommendations for the flu vaccine for 2025-2026.

Meeting adjourned. Hopefully everyone's BP is not super hypertensive.

The soul needs a bit of solitude sometimes. Have you heard from yourself recently?

Yes. Yes I am talking more random stuff atm. I figure it is a very dark time… so we might as well stick together while we figure a way out of this… (Who said I was a pessimist hey?)
