Eventually any outbreak burns itself out if absolutely nothing is done. The difference is how many people get maimed in the process. If you vaccinate, fewer infections and fewer complications if you don't more infections more complications. It's really that simple. abcnews.go.com/Health/texas...

It probably goes without saying for most of you who follow me, but the extent to which the private sector relies on open government datasets is massive. Limiting access to data or taking data offline would have huge consequences for everyone from startups to large corporations.

These emails, sent across agencies, compel all federal employees to snitch on any colleague whose work might have some vague DEIA inflection. Those who refuse to snitch will be disciplined. Seems designed to put all workers who aren’t white men under a cloud of suspicion. Truly vile stuff.

Please advocate for NIH. In the 15+ years I’ve watched my spouse grind through academia I’ve met so many people doing critically important research. NIH funding is not a waste of money, it’s vitally important to this country and we get a huge return from it.

Possibly useful little #Rstats trick: edit(names(iris)) will create a popup with the R code for the character vector containing the column names of your data frame that you can copy and paste, e.g. c("Sepal.Length", "Sepal.Width", "Petal.Length", "Petal.Width", "Species")

Health insurance industry PR is working overtime right now diverting blame to physicians for claim denials and rising costs. I feel compelled to remind everybody that Optum (UHC) is the largest employer of physicians in the US. We have never had less power in healthcare than we do right now.
