Pasteur Institute of Iran, founded in 1920 now destroyed by Israel-US bombing😞 It played a pivotal role in developing vaccines & public health services, for over a century, now gone😞 A few days ago a pharmaceutical plant was bombed, accused of making anesthetic fentanyl #War #PasteurInstituteIran

Vor fast 4 Jahren haben wir die YoungPI Working Group der @gesvirologie.bsky.social gegründet, damit auch neue Gruppenleiter*innen im Bereich der Virologie in Deutschland ein Forum haben, indem sie für ihre neuen Aufgaben Tips, Tricks und 1/5

I wonder what the chances are of recouping the money from these grants, which were cancelled unjustly, through civil lawsuits against these gentlemen and their colleagues personally?

Maryland is one of several states that are reporting cases of the infectious disease mumps, suggesting the return of diseases—like measles—that vaccines protect against

CDC issued a Global Polio Level 2 Travel Health Notice advising enhanced precautions Tragic. We had polio almost eradicated, but disruption to vaccination campaigns due to COVID, global instability, defunding & vaccine hesitancy have led us here #VaccinesWork 🧪 wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/notic...

Evidence gets stronger that wars start because national judicial systems are failing

Homöopathie, Anthropologie und Impfgegner in Reihen der Medizin, die damit groß Kohle scheffeln. Alles gewollt und/oder geduldet. Da läuft doch was gewaltig falsch, liebe Ärzteschaft und liebe Gesundheitspolitiker. www.tagesschau.de/investigativ...

Prevention is the best protection. Vaccines are your ally in staying healthy. Get your recommended vaccines today!

Protect your kids from measles by ensuring they get two doses of the measles vaccine. Don’t leave health to chance. Check today’s daily dose.

Da ist definitiv was dran

Wonder what all these NIH research groups do all day, if not doing research, which also includes a thing that is literally called "Clinical Center Research Hospital"

Together with colleague and friend Carl Herrmann @uniheidelberg.bsky.social, we are looking for a motivated postdoc with experience in organoid culture and data analysis (#bioinformatics), for a project in the @hlsalliance.bsky.social Joint Postdoc call. www.health-life-sciences.de/opportunitie...

Eine AfD-Landesregierung wäre das endgültige Aus für Sachsen-Anhalts Hochschulen, Lehre und Forschung und alle damit verbundenen Stellen. Somit ist man nicht mehr wettbewerbsfähig. Auch das sollte und muss klar im Vorfeld so deutlich benannt werden. www.jmwiarda.de/blog/2026/01...

ID physicians see the devastating consequences of vaccine-preventable diseases every day, & now more than ever, families & clinicians need accurate information & evidence-based recommendations they can trust. IDSA endorses AAP's 2026 childhood immunization schedule. @ameracadpeds.bsky.social

UKHSA responds to the confirmation from @WHO that the UK has lost its measles elimination status. Read more from WHO here: https://bit.ly/3YZuOFa

And as usual, a good vaccine is available

The number of confirmed #measles cases in South Carolina has hit an astonishing 558 in an outbreak that started in October. For context: that is more cases in 4 months than the entire US racked up most years in the past 30+ years. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

A good reminder that measles is one of the most contagious viruses known with an R(0) of around 14

Update: An HHS official told me after publication that the protocol is still being updated. “This study is going to proceed as planned,” the official said. But major changes would mean the trial would not proceed as it has been described so far. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

We have the CDC-funded Hepatitis Vaccine trial in Guinea-Bissau protocol. It’s worse than you thought. Check it out, first in Inside Medicine… with @pauloffit.bsky.social David Boulware and others. insidemedicine.substack.com/p/scoop-the-...

The American Society for Virology (ASV) is dedicated to advancing knowledge of viruses and the diseases they cause. ASV does not support the scaling back of the childhood vaccine schedule recently announced by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. See our statement attached.

Physicians in the Trump administration are aligning themselves with anti-public health interests and policies. High profile physicians should be resisting Trump and RFK Jr’s damaging policies, not collaborating with them, @gavinyamey.bsky.social @jonshaffer.bsky.social www.bmj.com/content/392/...

Scientific evidence shows, once again, there is no causal link between vaccines and autism. Vaccines cause adults. - @drtedros.who.int

A report published in a CDC journal reaffirms the effectiveness of COVID vaccines at preventing severe disease in children

New analysis from a WHO global expert committee on vaccine safety has found that, based on available evidence, no causal link exists between vaccines and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The conclusion reaffirms WHO’s position that childhood vaccines do not cause autism. www.who.int/news/item/11...

In a new trial, one dose of an HPV vaccine was noninferior to two doses in preventing HPV type 16 or 18 infection. Full ESCUDDO trial results: nej.md/49OEzg1 Editorial: Evidence to Action — Single-Dose HPV Vaccination and Cervical HPV Infection nej.md/3XsH9Rx #MedSky #IDSky

“Delaying the first hepatitis B vaccine dose beyond the newborn period introduces risks that have lifelong detrimental consequences and no measurable health benefit.” Important and timely piece by an amazing team - Mike Abers, Angela Ulrich, & Rochelle Walensky. 👏👏 jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

Of course he did.

What does respiratory virus transmission in schools look like with COVId in the mix? Let's look at data from the USA, 600 students (ages 3-18) and 200 staff. Goldman et al. Respiratory Virus Detection and Acute Respiratory Illness Rates in Students and Staff in Schools. Pediatrics, 2025.

Die Stadt Magdeburg findet offensichtlich voraussichtliche Bearbeitungszeiten von Anträgen von 3 Jahren anstatt rund 3 Monaten völlig in Ordnung und eine "Verbesserung". Verstehe mehr und mehr warum Dinge laufen wie sie laufen mit der anstehenden Wahlen in Sachsen-Anhalt im nächsten Jahr
