Why is it that on my 6 hour flight to London that I get 2 meals but on my 6 hour flight to Las Vegas, I only get pretzels?

I have flown a lot this year. 24 flights in total.

180 flights in my lifetime

And yet every time I get on a plane I am just as excited as I was as a child

Today we held the HTA Roundtable - Europe.

60 participants from all over Europe met to discuss collaboration to improve healthcare sustainability and how both US and European politics will impact decision making.

Saw an escort at a bar tonight.

Legitimately worried for her safety after things the guy said and did and how she reacted and said don't you ever do that again and how she said she would never do something.

And I have way to check on her as they left.

Truly sad for her.

4/ A new publication, NEJM Evidence, will share notes from the public health front lines, helping fill gaps left by CDC’s MMWR amid staffing and trust challenges. Local and state health departments now have a reliable, uncensored source.

#Sudan: Horror is unfolding in #ElFasher. People appear to be trapped, with reports of mass killing and other atrocities.

We are concerned about the risk of a potential bloodbath after over 500 days of siege and violence.

If traditional artworks aren't able to scratch that artistic itch of yours, perhaps you might be wanting to check out the paintings of Joachim Ingulstad of Norway.

Here's a 3-in-1 artwork of his that's simultaneously an oil, UV-reactive and also glow-in-the-dark painting. Interesting.

Trump announced that the FDA will be notifying physicians that use of acetaminophen during pregnancy "can be associated with a very increased risk of autism."

However, experts say autism is caused by multiple factors, and the science concerning that connection is not settled. https://cnn.it/4gxLCe6

The second Trump said "Centers for Medicines and Medicaid Services" and said that "1 in 100,000" was a measure of time, I shut the press release off in anger.

Warm up for MAHA / MAGA autism statement.

1) NO evidence vaccines cause autism.
2) NO solid evidence acetaminophen causes autism.

Do they have robust new evidence? (Spoiler: they don't.)

Trump links autism and Tylenol: is there any truth to it?
The US president calls the widely used painkiller, also known as paracetamol, ‘a very big factor’ in autism, but scientists say that strong evidence is lacking.

1/ RFK Jr. promised to “find the cause of autism” by September. Well, it’s September—and as many of you may have heard, word is his report drops today (or this week). It's rumored he will announce that #Tylenol "causes" autism along with a few other possibilities, so let's see what the studies say👇

It feels like voting members of a committee like ACIP should have to have some minimum knowledge base but I guess their lack of one whatsoever now is actually the point.
