Unsurprising if true given RFK Jr.'s accusations/spin/"poisoning the well" about ACIP. Very concerning to think about: a) who he might appoint to fill these seats b) what the implications will be for vaccine policies Background on ACIP: www.cdc.gov/acip/about/i... 🛟 Medsky health policy 🧪 lawsky 😷

Being loud and outspoken is not always the best strategy. If you want to see martyrdom, do it yourself. Don’t let your privilege push someone else to martyrdom when another strategy would help more people. It’s about the movement, not the moment.

Wise words from @absurdistwords.bsky.social

When thinking about stores abandoning DEI, don’t forget to consider what forces, incentives, or threats are happening in meeting rooms. Don’t forget to consider multiple layers of the story. Search for the potential root cause, even if it isn’t obvious. Have alternative hypotheses.

A message from @rupawl.bsky.social #love

Archiving federal information and data is a critical task during every administration transition, but it feels especially urgent now, given what we witnessed during Trump’s first term. UCS's Darya Minovi explains what’s at stake if data from federal agencies were to disappear.
