MAHA ignores the real causes of poor health in the US, but Defend Public Health doesn’t. Our report has 11 pillars of actions for Improving the Health of Americans Together, like reducing gun violence, combating scientific misinformation, and removing RFK Jr. from office.

This is a friendly reminder that raw milk is not safe for human consumption despite what wellness influencers will tell you. For example, 21 people, including 6 under the age of 10, got E. coli or Campylobacter infections after drinking raw milk from the same farm in Florida.

Hey @verizonofficial.bsky.social we have been at one of your stores in Jacksonville NC for 30 minutes. There is ONE employee working and we are 4th inline including the person being helped now. I’m generally patient but this is a chronic issue - tell me again why we should stay with you?

What a wonderful few days of vacation in your lovely country @martinkneyber.bsky.social - from the KLM flight in through Amsterdam, Haarlem, windmills and more ❤️.

Ventolin, the brand name for albuterol or salbutamol, was first sold in 1968. The first generic inhaler was not approved in the US until 2020 due to manipulation by the pharmaceutical industry. Because there are still so few approved “generic” alternatives it remains cost prohibitive for many people

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Before RFK Jr. announced healthy children no longer need coronavirus vaccines, the CDC’s data showed more than half of young children admitted to the ICU for covid had no underlying conditions wapo.st/4kk4DlE

Red food dye isn’t the number one killer of kids. Guns are…

When I read this today, I clapped out loud sitting alone at my desk. As a pediatric critical care clinician for 40 years I have taken care of so many children and families devastated by RSV. Phenomenal news. #PedsICU #NurseSky #PedSky #MedSky

Ever have a day where (gestures wildly) so much is going on that you can’t get your target task done? Oh, I have been so productive - on every work task except what I had planned

wfpiccs.org/2025-world-p... It is World PICU Awareness Week!!! Let's celebrate everyone who works in a #PedsICU #SCCMSoMe #SCCM #PICU

Very excited to see this work by my residency classmate calling for removal of race based guidance for Nirsevimab. Race is a social construct, not a biological one. Racism is the risk factor. #MedSky #PedsSky

In honor of #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, I’d like to remind you that your body NEEDS IRON to make serotonin and dopamine and ~40% of 12-21 yo females are deficient and most don’t even know it. tinyurl.com/JAMAFe

RFK Jr. ordered the NIH’s Integrated Research Facility in Frederick to stop all research on serious infectious diseases yesterday at 5:00 PM. They study pathogens like Ebola there. You may be familiar with it from The Hot Zone. www.wired.com/story/hhs-ni...

There is NO sound more joyous than the laugh of a baby. None.

BREAKING: The Interior Dept just used a fake “energy emergency” to greenlight gas and mining projects on public lands. It’s a lie. There is no energy emergency. This is a giveaway to big oil.

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

Apparently I said to my kids, when we were watching last year, “if your plan to save the world involves killing kids, it is a bad plan and will not save the world” I stand by that

Great NONPF meeting. Gave 2 presentations, lots of great learning and networking. #Growingnewcolleagues #ACPNP #NurseSky #PedsICU

Dr. Shannon Idzik, NONPF president, opens the 2025 annual conference reminding us of our priorities. #NPsLead #NPsForKids #Growingnewcolleagues #ACPNP #NurseSky

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

#NurseSky #MedSky Really, this applies to everyone. When your fellow clinician of whatever discipline comes to you with a concern, treat them and their concern with respect. We all benefit from collegiality, but our patients do most of all.

Trip 6/6 of this crazy stretch - whew!! Off to the NONPF conference in Denver - giving a couple of presentations and always learning. #Growingnewcolleagues #ACPNP #NPsLead #NPsForKids

…

When your former student and mentee Rachel Collins is gracefully and professionally presenting at her first international #ASPEN25 conference…… The future of nutrition science and pediatrics is bright!! #ACPNP #NutritionMatters

Short bowel syndrome is not just a specific measurement of leftover gut. It’s the lack of ability to absorb and maintain adequate nutrients (protein, micro nutrients, electrolytes, etc) as a result of a shortened gut. Enteral Nutrition is not always a hard and fast contraindication. #ASPEN25

Dr. Ajay Jain opens #ASPEN25 with his presidential address. Celebrating our 50th anniversary  #NutritionMatters #PICUNutrition #NurseSky #RDSky #MedSky

Trip 5/6 in this stretch….off to the #ASPEN25 conference. When the TSA agents at your small airport tell you “you’re flying a lot” and wave you over to the scanner you need for your knees without asking, you have to laugh. And sneaking a quick visit with the grands after! #NutritionMatters

Note some of these aren’t meds. Kids rely on us to put safety measures in place to keep them safe. Look in your own house and help remind those who also have kids in their house to secure potential poisons. #PedSky #MedSky #NurseSky #poisonprevention

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

It's #PoisonPreventionWeek! Would you know what to do if you mixed cleaning chemicals that react with each other? Children depend on parents and care providers to keep them safe and they also need to know what to do if an unsafe situation arises. #PrepTheKids

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
