Health misinformation and disinformation are the biggest and most under prioritized threats to public health in the 21st century. They are eroding decades of progress in the control and spread of diseases in real time. If we do not address this like the existential threat it is, we risk everything!

Remember the Johns Hopkins COVID-19 dashboard? Well they are back and it's tracking measles outbreaks in the U.S. This is critical, especially with rampant disinformation and declining reporting standards. Data is our best weapon against disinformation. #PublicHealth #Measles #SciComm

1. This past #flu season was a really hard one, especially on kids. 12 more pediatric flu deaths were reported to #CDC last week, bringing the total for the year so far to 216. That's the highest single season total for a non-pandemic year since CDC started collecting pediatric flu death data.
