Just a reminder, these are not non-lethal weapons. They're less lethal than actual bullets but they're still deadly.

Honestly shocked management didn't make the bear put on some scrubs and get to passing meds and answering call lights.

They're so desperate to escalate the situation in Los Angeles, they're sharing video of a car burning from FIVE YEARS AGO.

DOGE was supposed to save $2T, saved $160B, cost $135B in buyouts, and nuked $323B in tax revenue. So basically, we paid $300B for all that chaos.

I don’t care if you’re black, white, brown, yellow, purple - at the end of the day there’s only ONE race and that’s the human race. BE HUMAN. Practice humanity.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

A long and thoughtful thread, almost brought me into tears. "We owe this confidence to generations of scientists who pushed the boundaries of knowledge, not knowing if their efforts would make a difference." 🧪❤️

A gift to the NRA.

In an interview with Women’s Health Magazine I discuss my opinion of how Women’s Health Care will be affected by the changes in funding to research on women or examining sex differences @smidtheart.bsky.social @womensheart.bsky.social 📎 www.womenshealthmag.com/health/a6461...

Here’s What Einstein Would Tell Trump www.scientificamerican.com/article/what... "Einstein’s example today has much to offer us in the U.S., as scientists once more confront a political administration bent on bending science and scientists to its will. "

Succinctly stated.

From blood, sweat & tears to coronary artery disease: A Paramedic’s journey through the EMS trenches. jems.com/ems-operatio... Mike Doss says 30 years in #EMS cost him his health. From adrenaline to #PTSD, shift work to bad diets, the job takes a toll. Take care of yourself.

What could go wrong?

If this is an "emergency" the discretionary flip flops on tariff policy seem particularly abusive since something can't legally be an emergency one minute and then magically not one the next.

"It's going to take us more than a generation to recover, not just with the science but with the cuts to training grants and supporting mentees. And all the while, China is continuing to pour investments into these very areas … and we will quickly be eclipsed." www.npr.org/sections/sho...

My first post on BlueSky, I could not access the same handle as my X (someone hacked into that one): So it's @peterhotez for X and @peterhotezmdphd for BlueSky I'm a pediatric-vaccine scientist based in Houston TX at our Texas Medical Center

A single dose of an experimental drug dramatically reduced levels of a deadly form of cholesterol, often thought to be untreatable, for up to one year. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

The World Health Organization said in an update that the U.S. outbreak of #measles is an unusual event with potential significant public health impact and that it had spread to Mexico. www.cnn.com/2025/03/28/h...

More than 40 grants related to vaccine hesitancy have been cancelled due to the Trump admin. & there are mounting concerns that research on mRNA vaccines be next. "I want to underscore just how unprecedented — how abnormal all of this is. This is not how we operate." www.npr.org/2025/03/12/n...

Musk claims Social Security is a "gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants." In fact, immigrants here illegally do not collect Social Security. But they pay $25.7 billion a year into it, a recent study found, so these undocumented workers are actually subsidizing Americans.

And now Trump and declared a national emergency and and escalated trade war with Canada. A deranged madman is running the country. Trump is nuts too.

Unlike in the United States of Embarrassments, Here the richest man is taking food and medicine away from the most vulnerable and the poor.

Has anyone estimated or have an estimate on the $$$$ amt mUsK is losing with his twitter issues?

I love this so much....

End impunity End autogenocide End oligarchy #3E

Pfizer’s cancer drug commercial was beautiful, but their breast cancer drug Ibrance costs $10k per month and their prostate cancer drug Xtandi costs $22k per month. Beautiful commercials don’t change the fact that 42% of cancer patients exhaust their life savings in 2 years.

what a graph

As a science advocate, something I hear a lot is that people think government would be better if there were more scientists and physicians elected to Congress. Senator Bill Cassidy's cowardice in voting for RFK Jr, show us that expertise is useless if you have no morals.

Detox is a scam. It’s a legitimate medical term that has been hijacked by the wellness industry to sell pseudoscience.

Pierre Kory had his board certifications revoked for unethical practices like selling false cures

About that "itch"...

I wonder how many are facing the same problem of becoming a professor in the U.S. as I am now. Universities got so cheap that they don't want to spend 1 cent with you. Even if you are applying for an entry position (Assistant Professor), if you don't have your own money, is over.

A 2006 study found that the amount of muscle an individual has determines 40% of their insulin sensitivity. This, in turn, impacts how well your body processes glucose. Another reason to strength train! (Journal of Cardiometabolic Syndrome)

In our study we showed how angry neutrophils are massively entering the brain after #COVID infection, which is associated with Blood-Brain-Barrier disruption & Neuroinflammation. The photo below shows neutrophils infected with SARS-CoV-2. More data coming! www.cell.com/cell-reports... #NeuroCovid

Love this.

You understand the assignment. 💯
