In happy, nerdy news: Stata 19 was released yesterday &I just installed it. Will I use any of the fancy new features like machine learning? No. And did I want the new Stata anyway? Of course!! I will make use of the do-file improvements and maybe the heat maps, though. Thanks @statacorp.bsky.social!

It's a mess out there. The US outbreak list on the CDC website doesn't list the 2025 measles outbreak in Texas or the TB outbreak in Kansas.

I'm in Philly at a meeting in a hotel downtown. We can hear the cheers and yelling in the 5th floor ballroom. I guess it's going well.

RIP President Carter. You were a great man and humanitarian. Thank you for your life lived in public service.

A special thanks for your efforts to eradicate guinea worm/dracunculiasis. You were a public health champion too.

You know the thing where you add "in bed" to the fortune cookie fortune?

Now I add "and perimenopause" every time I google a new symptom. 😂🤣
