It’s Meningitis Monday! Meningitis for all!
Do you see a pale house? And his name that sat on him was Death.
Robert F Kennedy Jr has just decided that our children should not be immunized against several diseases, among them meningitis.
Meningitis spreads FAST and kills 1 in 6.
Dr. Bill Cassidy’s legacy as a hepatologist, will be that he brought about more liver disease. Put that in his obit.
Science isn’t static. Our last Ode to #NationalFoodDay is a great example of this. We used to tell parents to avoid peanuts. Then new research showed early exposure prevents allergy, which has likely saved thousands of kids from developing peanut allergies. 🥜💡

All the various law and order shows
It has taken medical science 200 years to advance humans to the point where people are so healthy and living so long that they can deny that science and medicine is what got us here.
Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.
Kennedy’s ACIP 2.0 is as expected. Headlined by charlatans that have nothing to lose and will rubber stamp ludicrous policies.
I strongly urge my fellow healthcare providers to speak up and be unafraid. We must ensure there is accountability through collective action.
We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Can we try matriarchy now?
During the rollout of the COVID vaccines, the lack of testing - combined with a raft of misinformation - led many pregnant women to not get vaccinated.
@propublica.org wrote this in 2022, but it's just as relevant now with RFK Jr's CDC changing recommendations for the vaccine.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem delivered a shockingly erroneous definition of the legal concept habeas corpus while testifying at a hearing before the Senate Appropriations Committee.
Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH) asked a simple, straightforward question: “So, Secretary Noem, what is…
So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street
🧵1/ CDC study: every 30 minutes, someone visits the ER for a gun injury. Scientists tracked 93k+ cases from 2018–2023. Peak times: 2:30–3:00 AM, weekends, & holidays—esp. July 4th & New Year’s. Gun violence remains a tragic public health crisis in America.

Remember: Almost all of us are the descendants of immigrants who fled persecution, or were brought to America under duress, or sought better lives for themselves and their descendants.
Politicians who stoke fear and hatred over immigration want you to forget this.
Do not.
Thank you!

Sen. Angela Alsobrooks **confronts RFK Jr. head-on** for his racist claim that Black people should get different vaccines because their immune systems are "stronger."
Watch him squirm as she **exposes his dangerous lies**—this is a must-watch.
**Leadership matters.**

My kids are gonna be so relieved they don’t have to do red dye #3 drills at school anymore.
Next time try nacho cheese Doritos instead of Fritos.
Thou shalt not pretend that wanting everyone to have healthcare is “radical.”
