“Since 1998, independent researchers have conducted more than 40 high-quality studies involving over 5.6 million people. The conclusion is clear and unambiguous: There’s no link between vaccines and autism." -Dr. Susan Kressly, AAP President on recent changes to the CDC's website

Decades of rigorous and scientifically sound research have proven that vaccines do not cause autism. CDC’s decision to change language on its website reversing that finding is reckless & harmful.

Food banks have already been contending with higher food prices and increased need. Administrators say demand will skyrocket if federal nutrition benefits stop in a few days because of the government shutdown.

When it’s April yet you still have 30-40 degree winter weather and your cat know how to make the most of the sun better than you do. #sunbathing #catmom #winterneedstoend @moshaik.bsky.social

Hubby: Your texts have gotten really long & formal, I think you need a break from grant writing Me: No they haven’t… Hubby proceeds to read several texts & after a couple “therefore, hence, refer to…” I’m like oh..😳 Maybe he’s right, it’s time to take a small break from grant writing! 😂

Because sometimes you just need a cat to cuddle with after work #CatMom

As a pediatric hematologist oncologist I’d like to remind y’all that federal funding for ALL childhood cancers combined is only 4% of overall cancer research funding. CHILDREN with CANCER. Who deserve every single chance they can get yet are shown over and over how little our society cares.

When did supporting childhood cancer become political??? Kids are our future!!! #PHODocs @shematologist.bsky.social @glaucomflecken.bsky.social @conquercancer.bsky.social ca.news.yahoo.com/republicans-...
