Dr. Peter Marks, recently pushed out of FDA, told us he believes the measles outbreak is being underreported. He says the case count is likely 3-7x higher, saying we could actually have as many as 3,000 cases. Yesterday, Sec'y Kennedy said we had 600+ cases and the outbreak was under control.

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

If you need covid tests or know anyone who does, the current administration is going to stop the free test program as soon as it becomes cheaper to destroy them than store them. Right now, you can still order 4 free tests. COVIDtests.gov

Unreal that is has come to this. For those not familiar with what this means: the National Cancer Institute (NCI) clinical trials center has been the beating heart if not the epicenter of cutting edge innovations in #healthcare for many decades.

JFC. Capping overhead at 15% and potentially making it retroactive?? Granted, I think some institution overhead rates are far too high, but this is going to break some labs and will have a significant impact on a lot of institutions.

#FDA is allowed to release safety info. ⚠️ Patients with CGMs that use a smartphone should monitor their settings to make sure they are receiving their alerts and alarms when devices have software updates or are on DND. This is particularly important education for patients who aren't tech savvy.

Just dropping this here... any publication with a CC BY-NC 4.0 license can be distrubuted in any form that is not commercial. A CC BY-4.0 license can be adapted even for comerical purposes. All you have to do is cite the article and post the license... even if the article is retracted.

FFS. Here we go. Calling all of my #medcomm people, now is the time to start capturing these articles and getting the info out there in other forms before they can be retracted.

This right here is what is important. Download all the CDC/NIH/NIAID files you think you need. Review their strategy plans because it is all going to have to come from states, institutions, and industry for a long time. Make sure the edication you are getting and giving is valid and referenced.

I don’t have a definitive source on this yet but it looks like NSF review panels have been canceled. Sixty-some years ago, Eisenhower transformed higher education because he viewed a science education gap as the single greatest threat to national security. This is absolutely an act of sabotage.

Pretty sure at this point the CDC is no longer allowed to post #birdflu updates either, along with MMWR news or other pubs. And grapevine says NIH can't even buy lab supplies (not asking anyone to confirm, please don't risk your jobs).

Your vaccination also protects the lives of babies under 1 who cannot be fully immunized. 10% of adults in NZ’s outbreak vs 2/3 of babies have had to be hospitalized. Pertussis can make small children stop breathing and even a “mild” case in an adult can mean months of coughing so severe ribs break

At base, people need to remember that RFK is a lawyer. If he can overturn the Vaccine Injury Act, it opens up every vaccine manufacturer to lawsuits. He has been a part of so many of these that even if he stepped down from HHS, he would be busy "consulting" for the rest of his life.
