The cuts are literally killing people, don't let anyone tell you otherwise (and this is, of course, just one example).

Nikki @neuronikki.bsky.social is a brilliant scientist I had the chance to collaborate with, as she coordinated a multidisciplinary team and just published a high-impact study offering a potential mechanism to treat neurodegeneration. The reward for her hard work in science? Removing her funding.

Sean @drseanmullen.bsky.social made a cool shirt to bring awareness about #Covid, I never thought I was going to see my microscopy in a shirt! All profit goes to support Long Covid Families (longcovidfamilies.org/about/).
#LongCovid
With science, health equity, and precautions against airborne pathogens under attack, one needs to use every tool available. That could be adding short summaries & links to science in your email signature uofi.box.com/s/cnmbd9kxsz... or literally wearing data that’s been ignored on your back.

I spoke briefly with Marks, who said he was particularly worried about the nation’s worsening measles outbreak — and the lack of a full-throated endorsement by RFK Jr and HHS leaders for measles vaccines.

Repeated infections before you've even recovered = progressive immune damage. That's why it's taken 3 years for TB to explode.

Frankly, this is exactly what @fitterhappieraj.bsky.social was forwarning.

The #Leonardi_Effect is everything we were both suggesting 🚨😬
You mean we'll get sick more often? Wouldn't there be signs of that, Dave?

Pflege im Alter nur noch für die Reichsten?
Martin Mühlegg, Chefredaktor des auf FB viel beworbenen Blogs Demenzworld ist der Meinung, dass es der arbeitenden Bevölkerung aus finanziellen Gründen nicht zuzumuten sei, dass Senioren und schwer Kranke auf Sterbehilfe verzichten.

New Episode!

Chatting with @adamratnermd.bsky.social & @zackvannus.bsky.social about the history of measles, why we can't seem to eradicate it and why it serves as a bellwether for future infectious disease in the US.

Listen & share!

Would love to see them do their own competing state of the union — tell it straight and show the whole story of what’s happening.
Democrats should boycott the State of the Union. Democrats keep calling this man a unique and dangerous threat, but never ACT like it.
For once, Democrats' *actions* should match their words.

The Democrats Should Boycott Trump’s Speech to Congress This Week
Refusing to attend the speech would be the first indication that Democrats are not just playing politics—and playing them badly—but resisting.

We'll post more on this in the future, but for now just sharing the devastating news that >90% of USAID contracts have been cut, including those for HIV medications, food kitchens, etc.

People WILL die as a result.

The Trump administration kills nearly all USAID programs
The Trump administration is terminating thousands of foreign assistance grants and awards, according to a court filing. The move effectively guts the six-decade-old agency.

This is clearly a traumatized American plane that has rolled on its back on arrival in Canada, and does not want to have to go back to the US.
A Delta flight carrying ~80 passengers from Minnesota appears to have crash landed at Toronto Pearson Airport. No casualties reported as of this time. Numerous photos and videos have been released showing passengers safely exiting the plane, which flipped upside down. At least 8 people injured.

Update update: 24 hours in and aside from a sore left arm, easily managed by ibuprofen, no real aches or fatigue. I feel lucky. But even if both vaccines kicked my ass this weekend, it would have been worth it. Get your shots, y'all!
Update: COVID and shingles vaccinations are in! Ache levels are okay so far, but I did take ibuprofen as soon as I walked through the door back at home. We're staying home for Valentine's Day in any event so it's all good.

DO NOT FEED YOUR PETS RAW FOOD.

A batch from Wild Coast Pet Foods came as "non-negative" for #H5N1, which means it is probably positive, but it needs to be confirmed at the CDC as well.

Cats are dying, and the virus keeps mutating. Not worth the risk. Once again, do not feed your pets raw food.

This is the thing, suddenly WANDERERS is more utopian — at least in the fact that in it, the CDC still exists and is doing its job. A comforting fantasy!
