Wondering if your PO, SRO, or other NIH official is still at NIH? Tara pointed out this useful search tool. Unfortunately my MIRA PO, who just took over this portfolio in December, is no longer listed. 💔

I hope people are studying this big policy intervention - will be fascinating to see and understand its effects
Sex workers in Belgium are now entitled to health insurance, pensions, sick days, maternity leave, safety protections and formal employment contracts under a new law.
This is the first law of its kind in the world.

It's good day to remind everyone that RFK Jr doesn't believe that HIV causes AIDS. This conspiracy makes him an unfit choice to lead the department of health and human services. He also believes vaccines cause autism.
Call/email your senator and oppose his confirmation.

Always an important day for our community. I think we should all be thankful how far we’ve come but for today let’s remember the many people we lost. #WorldAIDSday
Today is #WorldAIDSDay, a day to remember those we have lost and a day to educate and celebrate how far we’ve come.
It’s a day to support and uplift people living with HIV and to wear our red ribbons proudly as we remember all the people we’ve lost.

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.
