“We don’t need vaccines. We didn’t used to have them and we did fine!” …as I was reading about a woman born prior to vaccines: “She had 14 siblings, only seven of whom lived to adulthood..” And this was normal. I don’t want this to be normal again.

Whatever else emerges in time about the Delta crash in Canada, one thing is certain: the importance & amazing professionalism of flight attendants who safely evacuated the plane in a matter of seconds.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

#Measles is one of the leading causes of death among young children globally. In 2023, an estimated 107 500 people died from measles, mostly children under age 5. bit.ly/48SAtkf

Just wonderful writing on the 60 Minutes piece on President aMusk dismantling of USAID "The world's richest man cut off aid for the world's poorest people." Well done.

www.facebook.com/100059425124... I immediately bought this book and think everyone should. How ridiculous to take away a book teaching young girls to love themselves as they are, claiming it is DEI material. We should not stand for this censorship.

At the direction of RFK Jr., America’s newly confirmed secretary of Health and Human Services, the CDC has suddenly fired nearly 1,300 employees in a single day. 10% of America’s vital team of health experts — considered global leaders in disease control — have been axed. Although HHS…

New: the AP says it was blocked from an Oval Office event after being informed that it would be barred if it didn’t follow President Trump’s guidance on renaming the Gulf of Mexico

"The best and the worst thing about vaccination is that it 'makes nothing happen.' A child successfully inoculated against measles doesn’t fall sick with that condition, doesn’t miss school, doesn’t go to the hospital. They don’t suffer life-changing complications. They don’t die prematurely."

You wouldn't dismantle the agency that protects consumers for corporate abuse and scams unless you wanted your rich buddies to be able to abuse and scam consumers.

It’s a little hard and sad to watch all the women equality and American Dream commercials knowing we have a President whose whole goal is to suppress any programs that support these efforts.

Everything is on fire but hey! At least there's still books

🧵 When Medicine and Science Ignores Diversity, People Die. 1/ Ignoring diversity in medicine and science is deadly. From unethical experiments to life-threatening misdiagnoses, history is replete with examples of how neglecting race, gender, and identity costs lives. A thread of concrete examples.

The World Organization for Animal Health, a France based NGO, has discovered a new H5N9 bird flu strain at a duck farm in Merced County, California. Additionally, they also found H5N1 at the same farm.

Collins: Is there a tangible concession in your view? Davidson: Yeah, absolutely. It’s a commitment from Trudeau to help with fentanyl Collins: He announced that plan six weeks ago. Davidson: Well, at least he's reiterated it

Welcome to the Dark Ages.

The entire archive of CDC datasets can be found here. HUGE shoutout to data archivists- this work is important 👏🙌🏻 archive.org/details/2025...

Happy Black History Month, and yeah, we're still doing that.

Yes, beyond everything that is happening. The attack on the American republic, the coming economic carnage, this is a day of great, great shame that we have targeted and attacked our dearest friends and partners.

Speechless. Currently in the hospital as the Pediatric Infectious Disease Attending & access to vital info is limited. My duty to each child that I take care of is to have to most up to date information - in order to provide the best possible care. This is unacceptable www.npr.org/sections/sho...

Nobody is paying attention to things like this because the CDC no longer communicates. The current occupant of the White House broke government. He broke the ability to keep America safe. This is spreading, and this administration plans to pretend it doesn't exist. 828newsnow.com/news/228822-...

Remember how I keep telling y'all to stay updated on ALL of your vaccines? Well the ACIP specific guidance on individual vaccines has been taken down. Pediatricians and primary care providers use these guidelines EVERYDAY! www.cdc.gov/acip/

I just wanted to note for the record that we have a decorated Iraq war veteran who flew combat missions in a Blackhawk as sitting member of Congress! Who also happens to be a woman! And if you don’t know who Tammy Duckworth is, you’re in for a treat (complimentary).

The disappearance of the various federal databases is reminding me all too vividly of the memory hole in Orwell's 1984 (as are many other things). If we were going to live a fictional futuristic dystopia, Brave New World would have been more fun tbh

🏆 Governor Pritzker- Illinois - has signed an order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment.

STAT: CDC removal of databases on sexual orientation, gender identity sparks alarm One big detail: "The CDC’s Social Vulnerability Index — a dataset designed to track how susceptible county-level areas are to disaster — was also down." www.statnews.com/2025/01/31/c...
