The MAHA manifesto doesn't say a word about gun violence, the leading killer of young people, but this fool wants to further endanger our youth by stigmatizing life-saving meds. He really does not care how many children die because of his ego.

2/ "The researchers found that the cuts disproportionately affected trials focused on infectious diseases, such as covid-19 and HIV; prevention; and behavioral interventions. More than 100 of the canceled grants were for cancer research."

If you’re in DC today, head over the GWU for some high quality, high impact peaceful protest with @standupforscience.bsky.social @christopherstreet.bsky.social and GWU students ❤️✊🏼

Not that I believe really anything Nuzzi writes, given her record, but the far bigger scandal here is her claim that RFK Jr. was still actively using psychedelics last year, then became HHS secretary in an admin that is killing people for smuggling recreational drugs.

In his publications, he lists consulting for BP as a conflict of interest. How is it possible for someone getting $$ from the oil and gas industry to lead the NIEHS? Dr. Kyle Walsh selected to lead the NIEHS share.google/R7HlIDkU1d5W...

🚨Dept. of Education proposes to exclude public health degrees from the “professional degree” category. That means new public health experts could lose access to key higher ed resources, like loan limits & reimbursement. A bold strategy to let infectious diseases win! 🦠 aspph.org/department-o...

EPA announced it is moving to exempt some companies that make or import certain "forever chemicals" from requirements to report them. Specifically, if PFAS make up 0.1% or less of an item or mixture, the company would be exempt from the reporting requirement. 😤 thehill.com/policy/energ...

People want Democrats to hit the off button that America refused to push last November when it mattered.

Take a breath folks, stop yelling at Democrats

Reductions in Force not required by shutdowns, have never happened in any previous shutdown, and a judge has ruled they are illegal. The shutdown is an excuse, not a reason, for them to do what they wanted to do: destroy government.

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

Excellent resource documenting program cuts at CDC. In the environment sector, NCEH lost a lot but ATSDR (already woefully understaffed) largely untouched.

Essential research shows that particulate pollution—generated from motor fuels exhaust, tire wear, wildfires, factories, etc—is associated with dementia. More evidence that it is in the interest of public health to reduce pollution. (Gift link)

I am not exaggerating when I say that reading Section 4 of this article expanded my imagination more in the past ten minutes than anything else I've read this year. And I read a *lot.* #Blackademics #Skybrarians #History Would love to see #DataViz #ArtSky folks do images to illustrate/reflect...

I am going to be that annoying friend. Get your #COVID & #flu shots. There is little downside to getting immunized and it will spare you from being out sick, having to go to the doctor's office, hospitalization and yes, death. Too many people aren't stepping up to get the shots. Do it this weekend.

don’t forget that folks will need food for their pets too! same with animal shelters, which will be even further overwhelmed as pets are abandoned

Gotcha. So the plan is a camp, to involuntarily detain homeless people from across the country and concentrate them in one place. It’s a fucking concentration camp.

💔 The world can no longer rely on America for the values it once claimed to defend, and it has abandoned both humanitarian duty and any real commitment to democracy.

From chemtrails to wind farms, what conspiratorial nonsense won't our boss waste resources on instead of doing real #publichealth?
