Federal data shows that #NIH lost ~4400 people, 20% of the workforce. Many scientists have been pushed out.

~80% of NIH $ is awarded to universities & research institutions. Funding cuts are having a trickle down effect all over the country, affecting job prospects.

This is encouraging.

Kennedy promised to restore trust in our health agencies.

He achieved the opposite.

Confidence in health agencies dropped during Trumpโ€™s first year.

38% of people trust Kennedy.

Polls show more trust in professional associations.

This bears repeating.

Dr. Casey Means is not eligible for the position as Surgeon General. The position requires experience in public health programs & entry into regular corps. She has done neither.

You can take action by sending a letter to your senator.

If you read my post, it says โ€œwithout permission from spouseโ€. If you look at the comments from others, they have experienced that. One of them needed their father to sign.

So you (& people you know) are exception- that banks let you have your own account without anyoneโ€™s permission or to cosign.

Summary of recent HHS departures:

-Unqualified weirdo Jim Oโ€™Neill out as CDC Director

-โ€œMeasles outbreaks are the cost of doing businessโ€ Ralph Abraham out as his Dumbass Deputy

-Venomous podcaster Vinay Prasad out at FDA.

Yet human cassowary and denim enthusiast RFK Jr. remains.

Trump administration is failing to address spread of measles, experts say As number of cases climbs past 1,000, experts say CDC is not taking obvious steps amid funding cuts

Measles is a highly contagious virus. Itโ€™s also one we know how to contain. But as cases in the US accelerate past 1000, the Trump admin is refusing to take obvious steps to mitigate the spread. My latest.

Pluralistic governance at NIH
โ€ข NIH is the largest single funder of biomedical research in the worlds
โ€ข Two kinds of pluralism in NIH governance
โ€ข Madisonian pluralism: checks and bala, between Legislative and Executive Brar
โ€ข Dahlian pluralism: role for members of scientin community in decision-making

March is #WomensHistoryMonth.
Before 1974, women needed permission from their spouse to get a credit card or loan.

In 1972, Rep Bella Savitsky Abzug introduced the Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibiting lending institutions from discriminating on the basis of sex or marital status.

Stand Up for Science plans second rally on March 7 Public health chaos and research funding cuts are inspiring nationwide pro-science protests against the Trump administration

This weekend, on March 7, @standupforscience.bsky.social is leading protests in 25 locations.

Scientists had warned about the replacement of evidence over ideology and the damage it would cause. Everything that I was worried about came true.

Bhattacharya urges measles vaccination as US activity increases

Where was this before?
Our #NIH / CDC director now urges Americans to get vaccinated.

1. In 2026 we have ~1153 cases, more than half of 2025's (2279) totals.

2. South Carolina is the epicenter; w/ 990 cases alone.

3. Of those, 923 (93%) were unvaccinated.

Question: What do you do when your grants are terminated, you lose your job and the biggest science agency in the land chooses ideology over evidence?

Answer: You launch your own damn shadow committee to fight misinformation on autism and public health.

โ€˜I Genuinely Am Upset That Your Kids Are Vaccinatedโ€™ Del Bigtree, a longtime ally of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., isnโ€™t just anti-vaccine. Heโ€™s pro-infection.

Del Bigtree thinks that

If all kids contract measles, they will be blessed with the โ€œFerrari of immunity, while the rest of us will be driving around in Ford Pintos.โ€

This is the absurdity we are dealing with and why healthcare costs are going to increase.

Withheld Jeffrey Epstein files with accusations against Trump released by justice department The Department of Justice said the released files had been "incorrectly coded as duplicative" and inadvertently not published.

According to one of the 3 memos, the unnamed woman told FBI agents during an interview that she was introduced to Trump by Epstein in the 80s when she was a teenager. The woman accused both men of sexually assaulting her when she was between 13 & 15yrs old

All this tells me is that this war will be quite lengthy & Trump is willing to sacrifice our soldiers & world civilians plus any other collateral damage all for posturing, for disrupting our elections, for real estate deals, for oil & as a distraction from Epstein. Trump is a global danger!
