THIS IS HUGE! Researchers at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center say results of a Phase I trial of an mRNA vaccine aimed at preventing pancreatic cancer show promise. The vaccine PREVENTED the cancer from coming back in patients who had already received treatment for MORE THAN three years. 🧪🧵⬇️

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

My fave irrational guilty pleasure ... Coal Fired Oven Pizza I know burning coal is bad & wrong, but the pizza is so yummy. Angelo's Coal Fired Pizza in NYC Tampa suburbs have a good one in Brandon, Anthony's Coal Oven Pizza.

Paying scientists to research cancer cures is "government waste" but paying someone to follow the president around with a portable printer bc the guy who claims to be in perfect health can't strain his eyes looking at the screen. www.rawstory.com/natalie-harp...

New EO (link below) orders HHS to terminate the Secretary’s Advisory Committee on Long COVID (section 2iv). Share widely on all platforms. This is a perfect example of how this administration does not care about Americans. If this is efficiency, then what IS Trump's plan for people with Long COVID?

Q: “If the goal of these cuts is to lower the debt, why fire people at the IRS whose job is to raise revenue?” Almost like that’s not actually the goal! 🤷🏻 Again: they 💵 do 💵 not 💵 care 💵 about 💵 the 💵 debt 💵 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DGTl3Nm...

Hey @scottgottliebmd.bsky.social on my break, I just read a News Nation 🤢🤮 article on how red states are putting up bills to block mRNA vaccines from being used there. Pfizer must be proud you’re on their board right now. That new facility you just built in Portage Mi. is going to go unused.

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.
