To all our friends in Vancouver, stay safe and stay warm.

NEW: The FDA won’t tell Americans where their generic drugs are made, so ProPublica did it instead. Use information from your prescription label to locate the factory and see if the plant has a history of inspection violations.

NEW: Without USAID funding to help buy food for refugees, the World Food Program rushed to prioritize families based on need, determining that only half the population would get food. Refugees learned which half they were in from a number stamped on the back of their ration card.

The #brain is often viewed as rather separate from the rest of body. One way it is separated somewhat is the BBB — the blood-brain-barrier. Fabulous primer by @axelmontagne.bsky.social and Audrey Chagnot www.cell.com/current-biol...

More evidence that they knew about mefloquine crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB) early in the distribution to thousands of soldiers and citizens. From the Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology published in 1997. academic.oup.com/jpp/article-... (For a tip about accessing blocked articles dm me.)

Lina Stern, a biochemist and neurophysiologist, was one of the first researchers to identify what is now known as the blood-brain barrier, and conducted pioneering research on the central nervous system. adalovelaceday.subst...

I've done this lots of times lol

"Join Mark and Remington as they discuss Quinism, Mefloquine Poisoning, PTS Injuries, Traumatic Brain Injuries, DSM 5, history of Malaria drugs, suicide, difficulty in diagnosis, refusal of governments to recognize quinism." #quinism #mefloquinetoxicity #tbi #ptsd #antimalaria

Floroquinolone antibiotics (such as Cipro) are also a quinoline derivative like mefloquine. “Floxing” (the adverse effects from Floroquinolone Poisoning) are now officially recognized by the CDC.

10 out of 10 How's your own #mefloquinetoxicity anxiety?

Did you notice side effects while you were taking mefloquine? What do you recognize now that you can reflect on your experience with a broader list of side effects? #lariam #mefloquinetoxicity

I am absolutely terrible at this.

Unfortunately my plans to attend the Mefloquine Conference in Moncton, NB were thwarted by the Air Canada strike. So here is a video of my speech from 2024 in Victoria, BC.

A British group is conducting a Global Survey to gather insights from individuals who have taken Lariam/mefloquine By sharing you will contribute to greater awareness, informed decision-making, and future research. Responses will remain anonymous unless you choose to share your contact details

But Trump loves and respects our veterans.

Today is Agent Orange Awareness Day btw.

🦟 From tropical islands to urban Europe, mosquitoes are adapting - and spreading diseases. Of 3,500 species, only ~100 bite humans, but some, like Aedes albopictus, can transmit dengue, chikungunya or Zika. Understanding vector competence is key to stopping outbreaks. ↘️

Wow. Scientists have edited mosquito DNA to prevent the spread of malaria to humans "while supporting essential physiological functions... and negligible fitness costs" to the mosquito population. Potentially ending the mosquito-born spread of malaria to humans. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I love the Peace Corps (Kenya, Deaf Ed, 08-10)! Part of me loves my experience. Part of me wishes that I'd never gone and been give #mefloquine #lariam. But none of me wishes for the destruction of this amazing institution!

Blatant misinformation and shaming were used to pressure service members, volunteers, and even tourists into using mefloquine and feeling like a burden if they requested another drug. #mefloquine #mefloquinetoxicity #lariam #antimalaria #sideeffects

Refugees in Kenya have died at food distribution centers, officials noted, including a pregnant woman crushed to death during a stampede. Aid workers said they expected more people to get hurt “as vulnerable households become increasingly desperate.”

Whether given #mefloquine ( #lariam ) by your government or receiving a prescription from a doctor, you may have been warned about some side effects. I was warned about nightmares and anxiety. How about you? #mefloquinetoxicity #antimalaria #sideeffects

Today, we honor the brave members of the U.S. armed forces who gave their lives in service to our nation.

This UPI article from 2002 was another clear warning that #mefloquinetoxicity side effects must be more severe then reported. Yet they blatantly ignored the facts... "I want to get the Peace Corps out of this story," Peace Corps spokeswoman Ellen Field, 2002. www.upi.com/Top_News/200...

Tim Walz just called ICE the “modern day Gestapo.” and he’s absolutely correct.💯 “Trump's modern day Gestapo is scooping folks up. They're in unmarked vans, masks, being shipped off to foreign torture dungeons. Not even a chance to kiss loved ones goodbye.“ #BlueCrew Drop💙 for @governorwalz.mn.gov

What is available for veterans for housing and care in your country? It’s 💩 in the US and only getting worse. #veterans #veterancare #supportforveterans #vafunding

Our veterans are being treated horribly by Trump and Republicans. Cutting benefits and services to those who’ve served is unacceptable. Standing with fellow veterans in Congress to fight back and expose what’s happening.
