@idsainfo.bsky.social Why aren't we doing this? We have an obligation to our profession and our patients to continue to provide evidence based care despite political interference.
The American College of OB/GYN’s website is now hosting the critical documents purged by the CDC

This is what every professional medical organization should be doing right now

Wow. Any ID/epi/micro professional society that obeys this cruel regime in advance is not getting my dues or time. We can and must do better. #IDSky #EpiSky #MicroSky
@asm.org this better not be anticipatory obedience. I have 5 lab members planning on going to ASM microbe this year. I will absolutely pivot to another meeting if ASM gives in to anti-DEI efforts.

Hey #HoosierSky

The NIH provides a TON of funding to Indiana Universities and companies

Every $1 spent on NIH funding provides $2.46 of downstream benefit in the form of new discoveries, etc

Pausing it even for a short time will have major detriments to science and scientists
