apnews.com/article/tube... tuberculosis diagnoses rise to a record, but deaths fall, WHO reports. Cases in US are rising and at highest level in a dozen years. @resultsorg.bsky.social

Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly. Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer. Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.

One of the most important provisions of the ACA was eliminating pre-existing conditions exclusions from insurance plans. Folks need to be reminded that if the ACA goes away, so does that provision.

And one day when HPV vaccine is universal the scourge of cervical cancer will be gone.

The Trump administration has “agreed” to fully fund SNAP benefits, after being ordered to do so by a federal court. Until that money ends up in people’s pockets, this nightmare is not over. If food assistance is distributed, it'll be despite Trump’s efforts, not because of them.

24 corporations are giving Trump millions to build his new White House ballroom. 16 of them have government contracts. 14 are facing federal enforcement actions. Coincidence? We doubt it.

NEW: The entire staff supporting ACIP was laid off, and most working groups haven't met in months. That means the US may not make routine vaccine recommendations for more than half of children in 2026, and it could halt new vaccines in the pipeline. My latest: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

At the food pantry I volunteer at we were absolutely swamped today and by many first timers. We ran out of whole categories of food. Please donate cash to your local organization if you at all can.

When US aid ended earlier this year, a Somali maternity hospital had to fire staff + close. But not everyone got the news. When one woman arrived in late stage labor + gave birth outside the locked gate, the staff came back to work. They're still working for free. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/h...

“one problem is driving the next…malnourished children are more vulnerable to disease. They are displaced by drought and war, arriving in congested camps where they are packed in next to other underfed children, who also haven’t had the chance to be immunized.” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/17/h...

In America, we value free speech and human dignity. Who benefits when these rights are silenced? Authoritarians thrive on our rights being stripped away. Truth grows from protest. #TruthBrigade

‘It’s a massacre’: CDC battered by government shutdown firings www.statnews.com/2025/10/11/c... via @statnews.com

The Sudan Emergency Response Rooms was considered a front-runner for the Nobel Peace Prize winner this year and last. Here's their story. n.pr/43fHNEZ

They have fired the staff of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report and 70 Epidemic Intelligence Service officers, who are disease detectives that respond to outbreaks around the world. I cannot emphasize enough how dangerous it is to dismantle our disease surveillance infrastructure.

this is going to be frightening. Hang on tight. Glad to live in a small town and fully immunized, including a Nuvavovax a few weeks ago

Adelita Grijalva won her election fair and square. Now House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in because she would be the final signature to release the Epstein files. Mr. Speaker, respect democracy. Obey the law. Swear Representative Grijalva in immediately.
