Want to track measles across Washington? Here’s your tool! @doh.wa.gov #IDSky

We confirmed a #measles outbreak in Snohomish County – the first in the state since 2023 – with three unvaccinated children ages 23 months to 9 years testing positive for the highly contagious disease. More at doh.wa.gov/newsroom/was...

Join us on the second Wednesday of January (14th) and February (11th) for the two part series, The Ethics of Perinatal Care: Mobilizing A New Obstetric Quality & Patient Safety Paradigm @ 12PM with Dr. Karen A. Scott, MD, MPH, FACOG Register Now: washington.zoom.us/j/95430167228 #bioethics #gender

Physician and UW Epidemiology professor Dr. Helen Chu warns that the sudden overhaul of the new childhood vaccine schedule is “alarming” and could endanger children’s health. Experts stress the need for transparency, evidence, and trust to maintain strong vaccine protection. buff.ly/rkchHi4

We will continue to follow evidence-based science to protect the health of children here in Washington state. Questions about #vaccines? Please talk to your health care provider and visit doh.wa.gov/vaccines.

Our #vaccine recommendations remain in place and are based on decades of research and are aligned with the @ameracadpeds.bsky.social. We encourage all families to keep your kids up to date on vaccinations and talk with your health care provider if you have any questions. doh.wa.gov/immunization

Since 2020, our team has iterated on a model for “rapid research” to help surface, analyze, & resolve rumors about election administration. This work demonstrates an innovative role for researchers to support public sensemaking during rapidly unfolding events. uw.pressbooks.pub/rapidresearc...

Congratulations to #impsci superstars Dr. Aaron Lyon of @smartctr.bsky.social and our recently retired inaugural Director, Dr. @bjweiner.bsky.social for making the Clarivate Highly Cited list in 2025 🎉💫

If you see National Guard service members out in our communities, they're here to keep Washingtonians safe. I deeply appreciate the work they're doing.

Information from NWS Seattle: In coordination with King County, we have issued a FLASH FLOOD WARNING for a levee breach in Tukwila WA near Todd, Blvd. Water is likely moving north towards I-405. In addition, an evacuation notice is now in effect from King County.

We’re loving all the happy @gohuskies.bsky.social faces at #DIScience25 - if you’re at the conference make sure you swing by the many UW posters this afternoon and say heeeey! 💜💛🎉 #impsci

Check here for a developing list of available flood resources as historic flooding continues to impact Western Washington.

A new study from @uofwa.bsky.social reveals that traumatic events can significantly dampen organizational risk-taking.

I just received a phone call from Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem. Secretary Noem informed me that the president signed our request for an emergency declaration. We have also received written confirmation of that emergency declaration.

I did this in person once. Met the guy who wrote the paper that changed my career and told him about it. He said, “wow, I didn’t think anyone read that paper!” 😂

For up-to-date information on flooding, including a list of shelters, in Skagit County, please visit SkagitCounty.net/Flood. The Skagit County Emergency Operations Center is coordinating shelters with local organizations, churches, towns, and the American Red Cross.

The Skagit River will be cresting tomorrow mid-morning. That's expected to be at a historic level. Encouraging Washingtonians to continue following evacuation orders.

“One of the absolute most important things is that the world of HIV really brought activists into the conversation about science,” said Fred Hutch's Dr. Adrienne Shapiro. “They really lived the philosophy of nothing about us without us.” https://bit.ly/48btpRf #WorldAIDSDay

We sat down with India Ornelas and Paul Fleming for a powerful conversation on how prevention thinking can reshape public health policy, research, and community action. https://loom.ly/vYrDpL8 #paulfleming #imaginedoingbetter
