RFK Jr. wants evidence that vaccines do not cause autism. The evidence is there. He refuses to see it.

"Public health is a science, grounded in rigorous data analysis and a population-based perspective. It cannot be improvised. Decisions affecting millions of lives demand expertise, not anecdotal reasoning or personal biases." RFK Jr & Public Health ajph.aphapublications.org/doi/10.2105/...

An excellent well written and researched articles about seven diseases preventable by vaccines.

Part of Dark Age 2.0 is the bizarro embrace of a twisted (read: wrong) history of COVID. Alas, many believe. COVID was unprecedented. YES, we need to study & learn & improve. Benefits / harms of intervensions further explored. But let's not twist history to support ideological agendas. Reminder👇

How worried should you be about bird flu, lyme disease, rabies? We asked the BC Centre for Disease Control about staying safe from zoonotic diseases. 🦇🦟🐓

There was a day when requesting information from the gov't was free. Now you have to pay $10 not just to request gov't information, but $10 for every single ministry you think might have the info. So what used to be a single request can now require a $50 request fee. Thanks! @eby-david.bsky.social

For BC folk who are interested in FOIing why their own FOI requests weren't deemed to be in the public interest, this FOI reveals the process analysts use to determine public interest (and thus could be worth FOIing) @godfrey.bsky.social @jameswsthomson.com docs.openinfo.gov.bc.ca/Response_Pac...
