HHS postponed the Feb 26-28 Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices meeting b/c of “not enough time for public comment”. HHS refused CDC requests to open up public comment Feb 3rd. Meeting topics included Lyme disease and influenza. RFKJr gave assurances at confirmation to not "change" ACIP

My STEM assessment humbled me but in my defense I don’t remember algebra formulas but determined to get my score to an 80 (got a 33 blind 🫠)

Do you know what’s not a helpful response to everything happening right now?

“We’re fucked.”

Do you know what is?

Radical optimism rooted in action, community, and resilience is how we survive.

The Handmaid's Tale is a good book. But did you know that there's a book written by a Black woman about a post-apocalyptic Earth heavily affected by climate change and societal decline. The book was published in 1993, but is set in 2024 following a presidential election 👀 #BookSky #BlackBookSky
