US women deserve better
ajvictorymd: Breast cancer survival rate in 1920: 5% Breast cancer survival rate in 1960: 25% Breast cancer survival rate in 1990: 64-80% Breast cancer survival rate in 2025: 91% RESEARCH did this. Cutting funds to the NIH, cutting HHS staff, and freezing federal funding to academic institutions will take us back to 1920 when 95% of women with breast cancer died despite having a treatable disease. American women deserve better. #health #publichealth #medicine #science

Vaccines. 💪🏻💪🏻

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”
The image is a heatmap titled "Measles," showing measles cases across U.S. states from 1928 to 2003. States listed on the y-axis include Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, New Hampshire, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The x-axis spans years from 1928 to 2003. A vertical line marks the introduction of the measles vaccine around 1963. The color scale at the bottom ranges from blue (0 cases) to red (4,000+ cases), with shades of green, yellow, and orange indicating intermediate values (1,000, 2,000, 3,000 cases). Before 1963, many states show frequent high case numbers (yellow to red), while after 1963, cases drop significantly, with mostly blue indicating near-zero cases.
