Seriously same question….

FDA reverses course, agrees to review Moderna’s flu vaccine The FDA reversed course and told Moderna it would review its application for a new flu vaccine, the company announced Wednesday.

Unclear to me what accounts for this change, but I suppose it's good news:

Wait this is not SNL?!

[Obviously I'm being sarcastic. This was where we were headed from the moment he picked his HHS Secretary] Vaccine Makers Pull Back on Investment and Innovation Amid Trump Policies The Trump administration's dismantling of longstanding federal support for vaccines has "sent a chill through the entire industry," one scientist said.

No one could've seen this coming... 🙄

Don't we know already it's VP?

Exclusive: Key US infectious-diseases centre to drop pandemic preparation Staff members have been instructed to scrub this topic and ‘biodefense’ from the agency’s website.

Sure sure let’s order the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) to end all pandemic preparedness and biodefense work.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?

4 times as many measles cases in few weeks than US typically averages in year: CDC There have been 733 cases so far this year, a CDC report said.

Remember: In the prevaccine era, measles would peak in late winter- early spring. Don’t be surprised if in the next few weeks we see a surge

Panel A: The weekly Gravitrap Aedes aegypti index (GAI), which measures the abundance of adult A. aegypti mosquitoes, in the intervention and control clusters before and during the release of wolbachia-infected male mosquitoes. Panel B: A spatial visualization of the intervention (red) and control (teal) clusters.

In this report from Singapore, the release of wolbachia-infected, irradiated male 𝘈𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘦𝘨𝘺𝘱𝘵𝘪 mosquitoes resulted in a reduction in the vector population and in the risk of dengue infection. Full report: nej.md/4atd2iN

FDA declines to review Moderna's mRNA flu shot Under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Food and Drug Administration has taken an aggressive stance against mRNA technology.

I genuinely cannot believe the degree to which we are pissing away this generational breakthrough, even given the fuckmuppets who are involved www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Screenshot of Windows 95 being installed in a 86Box virtual machine. The installer is asking for Windows's disk 5.

When I got my first computer, many decades ago, reformatting/reinstalling was a ritual, something I learned to do every 6 months (give or take) to undo all my weird experiments with the OS. And even today, 30 years later, doing this is comforting. Installing old Windows in VMs gives me peace.

Not something you see in textbooks very often: tripolar mitosis.

Um is that a typo….

A photo of Liam Ramos wearing a blue hat, with a screenshot of a post from @JoaquinCastrotx that reads, "Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack. Thank you to everyone who demanded freedom for Liam. We won’t stop until all children and families are home."

Thanks to Joaquin Castro and Democrats, Liam Ramos is finally home.

Public health giant William Foege, who helped eradicate smallpox, has died at 89 ‘I wish we could have spared him from seeing that’: Friends of Bill Foege on his legacy, and his anger over anti-vaccination.

Bill Foege was a public health legend. His loss is profound, particularly at this time. That he died at the end of the week in which the US withdrew from #WHO & the chair of ACIP mused about whether polio & measles vaccination are still needed — no words. www.statnews.com/2026/01/25/w...
