Norway has become the only country to arrest someone because they were in the Epstein Files. No action in the USA. And none in the UK either.

Agree 100% @urochestersmd.bsky.social @urmed.bsky.social

STUDY: “Results show that for every reported professional benefit that scientists once gained from Twitter, scientists can now gain that benefit more effectively on Bluesky than on Twitter.” Follow great scientists here like @michaelemann.bsky.social @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social @katharinehayhoe.com

Among those who are aware of the recent changes to the federal childhood vaccine schedule, more expect the changes to hurt children than help them (54% vs. 26%), a new kff.org poll finds: https://bit.ly/46noew6

Trump could not be more explicit about his intention to rig elections this year and in 2028

The House of Medicine stands with science- as they always have.

What radicalized me? Do you mean today? Yesterday? Last week? 15 minutes ago?

If I was a tech bro and wanted to teach my AI software facial recognition, I’d start a trend where people post old pictures of themselves compared to new ones. Maybe, from 2016 and now. 🤷🏼

Curious how much this is costing the govt in legal fees? All this performative nonsense coming out of the administration is definitely neither free nor fiscally responsible.

South Carolina has reported 99 new measles cases in the past 3 days. Meanwhile RFK Jr. is “building a case” to argue that the U.S. shouldn’t lose its measles elimination status. But we’ve lost it and hell of a lot more. He only cares about optics. Reality need not apply.

They forgot to tell the AI to actually turn the pyramid onto its base so it was a stable foundation instead of a teeter totter. Also, it will be great to see funding for SNAP go up now so people can afford these foods. Oh, that’s right, they cut the funding.

MAHA going to be feeling lots of things when they start to need to present vaccine cards for international travel.

Ever need to get some vaccines before traveling? The CDC knows there are different disease risks in different countries. Trying to be Denmark doesn’t help Americans, unless we can adopt their healthcare coverage and parental leave programs.

Seems on brand😂. Remember, these are the people claiming expertise.

Literally

Doctors aren’t ”hurt or offended” offended by people who choose not to vaccinate. Most of us understand the science and the contents of the #vaccines and how herd immunity works, so we get frustrated at all the disinformation from people in gov who will dictate how we may care for patients.

"Officials are urging doctors to vaccinate their patients and provide flu antivirals after deaths among children reached record highs and as a concerning mutation of the virus circulates in the US." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... via @melodyschreiber.com @theguardian.com

Feeling that we’ve reached “everyone loves access to toilets” as the only common denominator everyone can agree upon.

This is not the first time RFK Jr or his fellow anti-vax travelers conducted a study they knew would harm or kill children in low-income countries. It is a dehumanizing, colonialist model of manufacturing evidence: sacrificing foreign kids for political pseudoscience. www.notus.org/health-scien...

Kind of wild that leadership so interested in “America first!” “America is the best!” wants so desperately to copy other countries. Can we follow their gun laws too? www.cnn.com/2025/12/18/h...

How Unethical Research Seeds Medical Mistrust: the proposed new trial in Guinea-Bissau will cause harm and is not justified, open.substack.com/pub/bktitanj... by Dr. BK Titanji @boghuma.bsky.social

I’ll say it again, Oprah owes us all a big apology

Would love for him to provide data on how often these procedures are happening in children. (Spoiler: it’s zero)

“NIH is in crisis, grants are being terminated, labs are closing….but they found $1.6 million for an unsolicited proposal to study whether we should delay a vaccine we’ve been safely giving for 40 years, in a country where infants are at high risk of infection” www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-va...

Oh. Oh wow. If this non-competitive grant for a placebo controlled single blind RCT really is going directly to Christine Stabell Benn (and/or her research partner & husband Peter Aaby, i.e., the Bandim Health Project, Guinea-Bissau), this would be yet another rather huge red flag.

💬 Viewpoint: The newly constituted Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices has departed from established, evidence-based guideline development standards, raising concerns about transparency and credibility. ja.ma/4915WBg

The media needs to stop writing headlines like “The CDC changes course on vaccines and autism” and “The CDC defends measles response”. NONE of this is coming from legitimate scientists at the CDC. ALL of it is coming from RFK Jr. Every such headline is causing further harm to public health.

I teach scientists to work with the media. Lesson 1: the mic is always on and there is no true off the record. Mind boggling that senior government officials would try to pass this off as a legitimate excuse.

We are closing out tonight with a link to enjoy the legendary table read of The Princess Bride. As long as we stick together we will find our way out of The Pit of Despair. 🖤RIP Rob and Michelle

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing. All from his movies.

I shouldn’t have to share this article as much as I do. Sending condolences to all friends and family and loved ones from the Brown Shooting today. www.newsweek.com/2025/07/18/f...

And yet in RFK Jr’s recent MAHA report, published by the White House, called “Make Our Children Healthy Again,” there was not a single mention of guns Not one mention of the top cause of child death in America It’s almost as if they don’t actually want to do anything to improve children‘s lives

As she should have

Oil of wintergreen safety alert

In case anyone still had hope, the US’s measles elimination status is essentially gone.

Sure buddy here goes: Flu shot $28 Level 4 ED visit for influenza $1700

Though, as vaccination rates drop and meningitis causing illnesses return, we probably won’t be able to use this.

Thank you

Now’s the time, if you never have, to watch the movie The Stepford Wives, the 1975 version (or read the book). I’m not saying we’re there yet, but guessing at least one person in the administration asked if it was possible.
