Morning - Rise up & resist! Today, let's focus on what we can control. Remembering that our purpose fuels our resilience & resistance. They want us to be fearful; worrying about the future. Bc in fear, we're not living in the moment. We're unable to help now when we're spiraling. #tgif

Appreciative of @hivma.bsky.social and @idsainfo.bsky.social for allowing me to write about the new federal executive orders with respect to sex and gender, and how we may best function as providers while advocating for LGBT+ pts www.idsociety.org/science-spea...

If only we had an effective vaccine that prevents measles, what is now the largest measles outbreak in the State's history in 30 years would be swiftly resolved 🙄. #VACCINATE www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

This is the new banner on HIV prevention webpages. This data is based off years of the highest quality evidence. To say this “this page does not reflect biological reality” because it includes trans people is propaganda from the people who know nothing about biology nor how to properly define sex.

I present to you all the notice that now is displayed on the CDC HIV prevention page. Again - In these times, find a healthcare provider you trust, who follows evidence based practice grounded in science. Follow trusted sources of information.

The HIV epidemic cannot be ended in a state of lawlessness where essential health agencies are gutted and funds are withheld without due cause and without reasonable warning. Read More: prep4all.org/statement-en...

Everyone I know who works in academia right now is incredibly stressed. Please be kind,show some patience, reach out to your friends and colleagues, and offer support 🧡. Educate yourself on what is at stake, find a channel for advocacy you can engage in consistently, and add your voice.

University leadership in U.S. seems to be finally speaking up. That's a good thing, I guess, but we remember their silence regarding attacks on trans folk, DEI, human rights etc. Indirects on grants are important, but I wish it didn't take that to move the people who lead our institutions on issues.

This change will accomplish one thing - kill medical research in US academic institutions. That's not hyperbole and the best way I can explain this to the lay public. Slashing indirect costs to 15% is a move to destroy the academic enterprise. Pass it on. www.statnews.com/2025/02/07/n...

"The Howard Hughes Medical Institute, a huge funder of biomedical research, has cut a $60-million initiative to boost diversity in science education." Everyone obeying in advance never believed in diversity and inclusion to begin with, it was all an act. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Measles outbreaks cost A LOT of money. Societal costs of the 2018 Clark Co, WA outbreak cost society-the taxpayer-$3.4 million ($47 479 per case or $814 per contact). Cost of measles vaccine=$25 per dose ($50 for a 2 shot regimen) + MA/RN to administer. publications.aap.org/pediatrics/a...

A bright spot in current hellscape we are living through — my brilliant mentee presenting his work on ID match rates based on states’ reproductive and/or LGBT restrictions. Data will certainly be only more relevant in the years to come. #WeAreID #IDSky

There is a line in the sand. Healthcare and public health organizations need to collectively hold the line. This is a life or death matter. shorturl.at/O5lsU

This is a chaotic and frightening time for researchers, but it is likely more terrifying for patients. As an infectious diseases doctor, I want to say that we are still here. We are advocating for you, and care about you: people with HIV, immigrants, transgender folks, and everyone else. #IDsky

I had a lot of fun riding this one with @anuhazramd.bsky.social , definitely a topic with some controversy, but could be a pivotal move to help reduce the incidence of this (not so) “hidden” syphilis epidemic.

Just released! 💥 #LEN, the twice-yearly injectable #PrEP has the potential to transform the #HIV response, but only if it is rolled out with speed, scale and equity. Read the latest op-ed from AVAC’s ED Mitchell Warren and @jirairratevosian.bsky.social in @devex.com. www.devex.com/news/opinion...

Health officials in California have confirmed the first case of mpox clade I in the US. Patient is a returning traveller's who traveled to eastern Africa. This is not unexpected because the world is interconnected and there are ongoing outbreaks of clade I mpox in Africa. apnews.com/article/mpox...

It's been shocking to see some public health experts who know better join in the sane-washing of RFK Jr and try to rationalize his nomination to lead DHHS. There's no universe in which he is an appropriate pick for that position. Pretending he is for some craven proximity to power is sick.
