Current research focus is the history and future of measurement science, risk models, and unpredictability, within the context of climate and health disasters.

Values: collaboration, connection, imagination and observation.

I honestly don't get it. Kids with any of those infections can get so miserable. Yeah, you can treat dehydration from rotavirus... but you can also just... prevent it? Why allow kids to go through that misery?

We aren't going to get anywhere with long COVID if we keep embracing unsubstantiated claims and chasing ghosts instead of actually working from what is well-substantiated by the data. Continuing to prop this up has real harms, and it will hurt patients if it hasn't already.

Highly recommend the Mossa & Pleiti books by @older.bsky.social: sapphic scifi Holmes/Watson with snacks & academic snark. 3 books so far.

3. While there's abundant evidence that #flu poses a risk to kids, the percentage of them vaccinated against flu continues to drop in the post-Covid era. #CDC says that as of 12/6, just about 42% of kids were vaxed against flu. That's down from just under 50% last season, I believe.
Bad trend.
