Unreal.
According to the Trump admin, nursing isn’t a profession so they won’t qualify for student loans 🤬
We’re barely recovering from the last RN shortage and they want to create another one 😫
Literally zero patients survive the ICU without outstanding RN care.

Nursing is no longer counted as a 'professional degree' by Trump admin

There's no excuse for the Vice President of the United States to use a heinous killing as an occasion to baselessly frame political opponents as accomplices to murder while threatening to use the power of the government to attack them.
This dangerous rhetoric will only fan the flames.

Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE) is one of the most feared complications of measles. It is rare, but always devastating: a progressive, fatal brain disorder that emerges years after a seemingly normal recovery from measles. 🧵

Hi, immunologist here:
(a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes)
RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation”
That’s NOT how immunology works.
He is an anti-science profiteer.
Start calling him such.
