How is it possible that in the year 2025 a clinical trial is NOT publicly registered?
🧪 Clinical trials need to be registered publicly

Search of international platform for trials in children on hepatitis B & Guinea Bissau doesn’t find any registered trials

NEW: After a contentious meeting, the CDC's vaccine advisers moved to delay a vote on restricting hepatitis B vaccination for infants. More from me (and updates to come!):

Hard to square all the talk about “gold-standard science” with an ACIP process that bars CDC hepatitis B experts and sidesteps the people holding the primary safety data. That’s not how you do science-driven policy.
On Thursday, members of a committee that advises #CDC on vaccine policy will vote on changes to #hepatitisB vaccine use in babies. Manufacturers (who have safety data) & CDC experts who study the vaccine aren't involved in the planning for the votes. #ACIP www.statnews.com/2025/12/02/a...
As vaccine panel prepares hepatitis B review, CDC and industry experts are excluded
CDC experts and manufacturers haven't been consulted for an ACIP review of hepatitis B vaccine, raising concerns over any change in the vaccine schedule.

After Biden commuted the sentences of 37 men on federal death row last year, the Trump administration is retaliating by sending them to the supermax. Prisoners are locked in cells smaller than a parking space 22-24 hours a day.

One prisoner told me he fears he won't make it out alive.

My latest:
Death Row Prisoners Granted Clemency by Biden Brace for "Living Hell" Under Trump - Bolts
Trump officials are retaliating by imposing the harshest conditions in the entire federal prison system, including near total isolation.

HHS hasn't provided evidence for breaking up the MMR vaccine because none exists. As I wrote earlier this month, "No safety data justify abandoning a program that has protected millions of children for more than 50 years." @cidrap.bsky.social

Our review provides extensive data on Covid-19, RSV, and flu, though interpreting these numbers requires understanding the distinct context surrounding each.

And here I thought enovid was an anti covid nasal spray!
The FDA approved Enovid (AKA “The Pill”) as a contraceptive on May 9, 1960. JFK became president months later. So, of course, pregnancy rates were much higher than now, as birth control pills became more easily available to women.

RFK Jr. is an idiot.
RFK Jr: "When my uncle was president, the fertility rate in this country was 3.5%. Today it is 1.6%. The replacement rate -- in other words the amount of fertility you need to keep your population even -- is 2.1%. We are below replacement. That is a national security threat to our country."

Alarming report on FDA political interference. Scientists are being asked to find data supporting predetermined conclusions on autism treatments, vaccines, SSRIs - the opposite of how science works.

We need evidence-based regulation, not regulation-based evidence.
