RFK Jr. is absolutely right here. The MMR vaccine is the best way to prevent the spread of measles and protect yourself, your children and your community. Share this if you agree!

You know what else is interesting about the 20-39 yr old category? The highest proportion of covid infections…correlation is not causation. And, given the immune suppression that often follows covid infections, perhaps something to consider as we see breakthrough measles cases.

A 1M+ 🇺🇸 sample of children/ adolescents with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection and controls, should that children who were Covid + are at a statistically significant increased risk of various cardiovascular outcomes, including heart failure and thromboembolism www.nature.com/articles/s41...

18% of Ontario measles cases aged 20-39 were fully vaccinated 8% of those 40+ were fully vaccinated These are not insignificant numbers. Measles relies on herd immunity, so when less people are vaccinated there will be more breakthrough infections A well fitted respirator gives extra protection!

Study of 297,920 children and adolescents with SARS-CoV-2 infection. “We found that those infected with SARS-CoV-2 exhibited increased risks for a range of post-acute cardiovascular outcomes” www.nature.com/articles/s41... #LongCovdidKids #PaediatricLongCovid #HeartHealth

Have we tried 1000% tariffs with El Salvador? www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/p...

Not only is it a better option for those with strong adverse reactions to the mRNA boosters, Novavax has a longer period of relative protection from the virus and means less downtime for most folks making it an easier option to rec for the vax hesitant and anyone with an hourly job. Please comment!

Let's speak plainly about what is happening. The First Amendment has been terminated for immigrants.

This National Public Health Week, I encourage fellow journalists to refer to the Covid-19 pandemic in the present tense. Sure, the government emergency in the US is over, but that means people can be forced to come into work while sick with Covid, which increases the risk of developing Long Covid.

Hi Bluesky friends! The Novavax vaccine for COVID-19 is needed by many folks with Long COVID. Please leave a comment at the CDC site below by 11:59pm ET TONIGHT (Friday, April 11th) to support approval of the Novavax vaccine. Jessica included a suggested comment in her replies. THANK YOU!!! ♥️

What’s happening in Washington DC right now can be described as a bunch of squatters having taken over the house. They are ripping the fixtures out and smearing shit on the walls. And they are dangerous. It’s quite possible the place will be unlivable once they are finally kicked out.

COMPARE: the results of fighting back to the results of not fighting back

The measles outbreak in Ontario is impacting more than 800 people, including the vaccinated. We need to be investigating why so many vaccinated people are becoming infected. Did they miss a booster? Is Covid damaging their immune systems? A well fitted respirator provides excellent protection!

RFK Jr. must be removed from office immediately. It’s a matter of life or death.

BREAKING: More than 350,000 people have now joined our campaign calling for impeachment proceedings against this lawless president. The Impeachment Clause must be invoked in the face of the multiple abuses of power committed by Donald Trump. Join us at www.impeachtrumpagain.org. @fsfp.bsky.social

the next democratic administration must engage in a rigorous de-nazification of the entire federal workforce

I'm not Jewish, but I still find it very upsetting to see the very real and vile problem of antisemitism weaponized in service of fascism like this. Also, we all know they actually mean objection to US-funded genocide, not hate toward Jewish people. gizmodo.com/dhs-says-soc...

As tension with China grows and the trade war heats up, their incredibly powerful social manipulation tool—TikTok, which was deemed a dangerous anti American weapon by Congress—continues to enthrall millions of addicted users. Reminder—Bluesky is not owned by the oligarchy or foreign governments.

Thank you Jolly Good Ginger for FACTUAL INFORMATION. I love the way he kept addressing her as “White Lady”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. must be removed from office.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court says the government must facilitate the RETURN of Abrego Garcia from El Salvador to the United States. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

RFK Jr. has always thought that he knows more than hundreds of thousands of scientists and healthcare workers, despite having zero knowledge, training or experience in any field of science. He believes that he, and only he, can solve a complex chronic condition in 5 months’ time. Contemptible.

Georges Benjamin, exec director of the American Public Health Assn, calls on Secretary Kennedy to resign, calling him "a danger to the public’s health.” www.statnews.com/2025/04/09/r...

Amazing work by @noamross.net and @scott-delaney.bsky.social!

gettin real sick of the way people keep throwing the word community around

All praise to @apha.org for being the first major organization to call for this. #RFKJr is a public health menace.

RFK Jr. is a lying liar who lies. The health of the people of the United States depends on his removal from office.

@wendyorent.bsky.social quoted you near the end of this - loved your article in Open Mind Magazine, btw! linked to it as well. www.panaccindex.info/p/profile-ze...

RFK Jr. just said that his response to the measles outbreak in Texas should be a “model for the world”. I agree. It’s a perfect model of what not to do in a measles outbreak, how not to behave as a human being, and as a cautionary tale of arrogance, ignorance and privilege.

Science does not work like this. The only way you can set a timeline is if you have rigged the results in advance.

APHA is not holding back in demanding that RFK Jr. leave office or be removed from office. We agree.

The NY AG has jurisdiction over ANY insider trading that occurs on any NY-based stock exchange Letitia James should open an IMMEDIATE investigation into whether Trump insiders and Republican members of Congress used advance notice of Trump's 90-day tariff pause to buy stocks

Reminder, COVID-19 is still spreading. Everyone is at risk of Long COVID and other serious health issues from COVID. Everyone has a right to wear a mask. #NoNYMaskBan
