As a physician-scientist I feel advocating for #ClimateAction, #healthcare, #vaccines, #GunControl is not politics, it is a professional duty!

As a person who is famously (infamously?) bad with names, one thing I miss about Olde Twitter was that I knew how to track down so many brilliant researchers by scrolling through my following list. A lot of folks never made it over to BlueSky and it’s a sad loss.

In South Carolina:

There are currently 920 cases of measles (90% kids)

89% of children are vaccinated against measles

95% of those infected are unvaccinated

Read the two lines above again to yourself slowly and think about what it means

(hint: the measles vaccine works amazingly well)

Whoever figures out how to sterilize milk will be so famous they’ll probably name the process after them.
This is bonkers. MAHA 'farmers' with ecoli tainted raw milk admit they really don't know how to make the stuff after all.

"Producing raw milk takes careful planning from a facility and infrastructure standpoint. Unfortunately, we learned this after the fact."

Jason Locasale what-about-ing Peter Attia's substantial correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein.

This is based on Attia's explanation/denial that he did anything illegal.

One of the message includes Attia saying "“Pussy is, indeed, low carb.”

But, sure, let's trust his judgement and platform him.

Citing harm to patients, unnecessary deaths, Minnesota Physicians demand immediate end to ICE violence and implore the US medical community to join and use its influence to protect patients.
I agree.
All Medical Societies should join this call.

These are still be made VERY slowly. Only 75 awards have been made through 1/23/26.

These are now from 7 institutes and centers (NIA (45), NINDS (16), NIDDK (5), NIDCR (4), NIDCD (2), NHLBI (1), and NCATS (1)).

Just saw this, and it makes me wonder how you think you should still be in the United States Senate — let alone a Democrat — if you’re going to follow up the first two paragraphs with the third.

This is a dead child, and your response sounds like Al Gore talking about Reinventing Government.
Anadith Danay Reyes Álvarez died in government custody.

She had sickle cell and congenital heart disease but couldn’t access timely and adequate medical care.

We need to reform immigration detention.
