Vaccines offer a pathway to immunity—without the suffering. They’re carefully designed to activate your immune system in a controlled way. Author: Aimee Pugh-Bernard, PhD

We’re moving toward a world where hazard trumps risk, where the presence of a chemical matters more than the dose, where “natural” automatically beats “synthetic” regardless of testing/oversight. This isn’t progress. It’s regression to a pre-scientific worldview where fear & marketing trump science.

“This terminology confusion leaves many women unprepared for the years-long transition that can start in their 30s or 40s.” I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH LADIES OF BSKY

I waited for menopause…only to learn I had missed it. When my doctor mentioned something about postmenopausal symptoms, I did a double-take. Wait- what? And then it hit me… By Jen Covich Bordenick

An excellent breakdown of the new "study" linking vaccines to autism @unbiasedscipod.bsky.social "We manually reviewed every single one of the 308 references...the list is essentially a sea of red flags." theunbiasedscipod.substack.com/p/anti-vacci...

As diet and wellness become increasingly politicized, one of the most recognizable grocery brands navigates the debate. Unbiased Science CEO Jessica Steier, DrPH, PMP dives into the topic with The New York Times writer Ben Ryder Howe www.nytimes.com/2025/10/29/d...

Did you know October is Organize Your Medical Information Month? 👀

Out today from @unbiasedscipod.bsky.social a discussion with @drsethberkley.bsky.social, a leading voice in global health They dig into the resurgence of preventable diseases, what was learned from #COVID-19, and how vaccine equity shapes our collective future 🎧 Listen Now youtu.be/Pv-sFW8--Mo?...

Since October is RSV awareness month, it’s the perfect time to understand this common virus: how it spreads, who’s most at risk, and how to choose among the available prevention methods. Let’s discuss!

Influencers are now spreading misinformation about mammograms. 😡

💉 “Big Pharma” gets a lot of hate, but did you know the wellness industry is more than 3x larger and barely regulated. 💊 @hoosiersvaccinate.bsky.social

Alongside the claim that acetaminophen (Tylenol) causes autism, the Trump administration recently announced a ‘bold plan’ to treat the condition: a medication called leucovorin (folinic acid). Let's discuss...

Some of the mammogram myths we keep hearing: ❌ "Mammogram radiation causes breast cancer" ❌ "The compression can make cancer burst and spread" ❌ "The radiation is dangerous" None of this is true!

The real damage from wellness fearmongering often isn’t physical, it’s the constant state of panic it creates. Every product becomes a threat. Every choice feels wrong. Every day starts with scrolling through someone’s list of things that will definitely, probably, maybe kill you.

With the CDC announcing that its vaccine advisory panel will be reviewing aluminum adjuvants, & President Trump’s latest call to remove aluminum from vaccines, now seems like a good time to examine how the anti-vax playbook gets applied to aluminum.

Without federal coordination, we risk returning to a patchwork system where your baby’s health protection depends on your ZIP code. Where conditions get added to screening panels based on lobbying power rather than scientific evidence.

ADHD is not a modern invention, nor a behavioral choice — it’s a neurodevelopmental condition with strong genetic and neurobiological foundations. This October, let’s turn awareness into acceptance, access, understanding, and support for brains that operate on different rhythms.

Transparency, trust-building efforts, and protecting the independence of public health institutions must guide our collective actions. By learning from this cautionary tale, we can act decisively today to safeguard the health and security of future generations.

The United States has never been more vulnerable to a biological attack. Our adversaries know no one is tending the store.

Ten years ago, I stood under the chuppah—beneath two massive banyan trees—and exchanged wedding vows with a man who had orchestrated our first meeting with the precision of a romantic comedy plot.

Some circumcised boys get Tylenol for pain, and some are later diagnosed with autism—therefore, Tylenol causes autism?! That’s like saying umbrellas cause car accidents because both are more common on rainy days. Read more here: theunbiasedscipod.substack.com/p/vaccines-t...

🌟 Meet the synthetic fibers all around us! They're in the clothes we wear and the cars we drive, our sports gear, medical supplies, packaging, and even our homes! But did you know these “man-made” fibers have some potential risks?

Kennedy’s narrative assumes sanitation and quarantine could control airborne diseases. History says otherwise.

Our Unbiased Real Stories series features people who have changed their views on vaccines. Please remember these are real people sharing vulnerable experiences (with permission, of course)— let’s be kind! Watch: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArBF... Want to share your story? forms.gle/SmFfiwYj1M7G... 💕

The mothers who were accused of causing their child's autism, the families who will have doubts now that this could be true, the children who think there is something wrong with them, the blatant lies & disrespect from the felon who used bone spurs as an excuse -- UNACCEPTABLE ON EVERY LEVEL.

In our latest episode, Jess and Sarah welcome registered dietitian Abbey Sharp to explore the complex relationships between nutrition, social media, and body image.

🥩👶 From beef tallow bottles to baby “menus” of liver and ground beef… the “infant carnivore” trend is making headlines. But is it actually healthy—or even safe? We break down the history of this trend and the science behind an animal-only menu for infants.

There will only ever be one Scuppers. Rest easy, sweet boy. You were the sheriff of our treehouse, the guardian of our children, the keeper of our hearts.

🧰 If someone asks why we needed mRNA when other vaccines worked fine, here’s what you can say: We didn’t need it for diseases we’d already conquered. We needed it for the battles we couldn’t win with our old tools.

Jess Steier, @unbiasedscipod.bsky.social , on the September #ACIP meeting "It felt less like a scientific advisory meeting and more like a very confused academic conference where half the attendees showed up to the wrong session." theunbiasedscipod.substack.com/p/acip-day-2...

This tool kit is helpful! Especially given the misinformation harmful unscientific nonsense from south of the border yesterday.

The largest study to date, which analyzed 2.5 million children, found no increased likelihood when properly accounting for genetic factors. Autism is primarily genetic—established before birth through complex factors beyond anyone's control.

Vaccines, like all interventions in medicine, come with some risks, but their benefits far outweigh those risks. Public health is a victim of its own success, making people forget the importance of vaccination. Watch @unbiasedscipod.bsky.social explain: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHhq...

💉 Did you know that September - October is the ideal time to get your flu shot?

Your Weekly Check-In on Outbreaks Across the US Data from the Brown University Pandemic Center Tracking Report (September 18, 2025). Analysis is ours.

Day 1 of the ACIP Meeting: A Comedy of Errors (That's Not Actually Funny)

I'm watching the ACIP meeting. #Follow along for updates. The committee will vote on whether to delay the hepatitis B vaccine for babies and whether to give the MMR (measles/mumps/rubella) and chickenpox vaccines separately.

The summer of 2025 brought news of several cases of infection with brain eating amoeba and flesh eating bacteria. These infections are extremely rare and exposure in most coastal waters in the US is unlikely but we wanted to give some background on these fascinating microbes.

🚨 Don’t let VAERS myths fool you! You may have seen claims that “VAERS proves COVID-19 vaccines killed kids.” That’s not what VAERS shows.

We teamed up with Society of Behavioral Medicine to share how all of us—scientists, health professionals, and the public—can help combat misinformation 🧠. This post highlights their toolkit with 10 practical tips to help identify and prevent the spread of misinformation.

Some key takeaways on outbreaks across the US and the world:

Change doesn't always happen in some fancy formal way, through policy papers or academic conferences or viral social media posts. Sometimes it happens around the Thanksgiving table, at high school reunions, and yes, with random dudes at bars. Cheers.

Here are some key takeaways from the August 28th Brown Pandemic Center Report on new and continuing outbreaks across the US. Data from the Brown University Pandemic Center Tracking Report. Analysis is ours.

Welcome to today's episode of "Pin the Tail on the Autism Cause" — where RFK Jr. promises he'll identify which "medical interventions" are "almost certainly causing autism" by September, while Trump speculates "maybe it's a shot" and calls autism a "tremendous horror show."

🆘 Public Health Emergency in Mississippi 🆘 Mississippi now has the highest infant mortality rate in the U.S. — nearly double the national average. In 2024, 9.7 infants per 1,000 live births died in Mississippi, compared to 5.5 per 1,000 nationwide.

We need a lot more Dr. Jessica Steiers to pull a body of evidence together like this @unbiasedscipod.bsky.social 👏 theunbiasedscipod.substack.com/p/how-a-gove... www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
