All of his talking points are willfully false, from placebo testing to risks. He knows they are false. Everyone working with him knows they are false. The data has been public for decades! He’s made a lot of $ lying about it and has literally gotten kids killed. It is hard not to see it as eugenics.

Would be cool if there were consequences for intentionally lying to Congress! The state does not force anyone to immunize. Parents already refuse vaccines bc of misinfo like this. The HepB vaccine is one of the most-tested & studied therapeutics of all time. It’s safer than most of your daily life

1,000 is a useful frame for explaining the threat measles poses to children: for every 1,000 cases, about 200 children will need hospitalization 50 will develop pneumonia and 1 to 3 will die.

Communities need to have input on what gets built where they live.

National Public Health Week reminds us that healthier communities start with prevention, education, and strong public health leadership. AMWA is proud to support leaders in medicine who are driving change and strengthening the health of our communities. Together, we can build a healthier future!

Important new analysis of the health and economic impacts of PM2.5 in one city- Pittsburgh. It shows about 3100 extra deaths, extra premature births, and a loss of about 2.5 IQ points per child. Study by @bostoncollege.bsky.social: annalsofglobalhealth.org/articles/10....

Lots of high daily PM2.5 readings in GA today. Maybe it's from a few prescribed fires and more than a few wildfires? An AQI of orange means it exceeds the daily standard of 35mcg/m3, so any orange or red is quite high. (The daily standard was not changed in 2024.)

“Maybe grieving for strangers, earnestly, is a refusal to see memory, suffering & unfinished love be coerced.” Those who force AI & violence on us don’t recognize the beauty of the Earth anymore. They can neither feel the suffering of others, nor welcome grief, writes Avik Jain Chatlani.

I just resigned from NASA. It breaks my heart to leave, but I’ve become convinced the best path forward is to do the best science I can, and that can’t be here anymore. I’m still in love with the promise of those four magic letters. Ad astra per aspera, and remember: Earth is the only good planet.

I have been trying to make a trend with my actions, about once a week I write a card to one or two friends or relatives who seem to be hurting. So far it seems to be building more connections and making the world more caring. Though I am a little haphazard with my timing.

This new study says, though, something much more shocking: the "technology" to remove carbon would actually add MORE carbon to the atmosphere than just burning unabated methane gas itself. I mean, yes the study needs to be peer reviewed, but its authors seem rather credentialed, no? 4/n

How do you talk about climate change in a deeply polarized country? Experts say the answer may lie in communicating through shared values and trusted messengers.

150,000 undercounted deaths in the 1st yr of the COVID-19 pandemic. Disproprotionately represented were Black, Latine/o/x, Indigenous, Asian ppl, ppl w/ less than a H.S. education, ppl w/ lower household incomes & worse preexisting health. Thus, underestimating the extent of COVID19 inequities
