They literally panicked only five years ago about retained CO2 from wearing masks!!!

It’s genocide by starvation, and yeah the most vulnerable are going to die first. Doesn’t mean they weren’t starved to death. (Especially a kid like Mohammed who is on specialized formula to begin with. No way that’s making it through Israel’s blockade.)

The absolute ghoulishness to suggest that a kid who has cerebral palsy deserves to die of malnourishment.

The whole POINT of the NIH is that they aren’t a publicly traded company. They fund promising science even if there’s no clear profit from it, in the hopes of eventually bettering human health.

I’ll take your objections into account the next time I have to place one. 😂

Can confirm. (The IJ placement in babies. I know nothing about tall, tattooed men.)

Amazing that the AMA is now having to put out statements opposing RFK getting rid of the USPSTF when they could have just opposed his nomination in the first place and saved a step.

The right wing lost their minds, got pants shitting, crying, shrieking mad because Michelle Obama was like “maybe instead of tater tots counting as a ‘vegetable,’ school lunches should have peas or green beans instead.”

It’s okay. We’re gonna stop paying for people’s insulin so everything will be fine.

Morty…no!

(The blaming someone comes last. That’s what M&M conference is for.)

Just because the law may allow this doesn’t mean it’s permissible under medical ethics.

Absolutely nothing but bad faith that any COVID mitigation measure must go through randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trials before being enacted but anecdata is fine when it comes to food dyes. 🙄

Jesus…

Literally not how data works.

The bill eliminates the $200 registration fee for gun silencers, short-barreled rifles, short-barreled shotguns & other easily concealable guns (that actually goes towards registering, background checks, etc)

It adds fees for dialysis patients to be able to receive necessary treatment to stay alive

Co-pays for dialysis????!?!?

I see the ortho team has finally put in their orders.

Until we invent time travel so that Bill Cassidy can go back and prevent himself from voting to confirm RFK, Jr. the best protection is the MMR vaccine.

Really looking forward to the RFK Jr. HIV / measles / flu tripledemic!

Promise of Victory Over H.I.V. Fades as U.S. Withdraws Support

This story is devastating. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/25/h...

Robert F Kennedy Jr is not a vaccine skeptic. Reporters and editors who’ve decided it’s somehow more fair to call him one instead of the anti-vaccine activist and lawyer he is should stop mischaracterizing him so… in the pursuit of accuracy.

lolsob

“I am not brea-thing! I am not brea-thing!”

The baby coffin industry is suffering!

same graph showing vaccinated kids die less.

and it's roughly 5% vs 3% so a 2% absolute risk reduction, which translates into an average NNT of 50, ie for every 50 kids who gets vaccinated, 1 fewer dies? that's amazing, esp since vaccines also have other benefits, like fewer illnesses and getting fewer other people sick

(Although his Freudian slip of Martin “Killdorf” bears repeating.)

Absolute circular reasoning and insanely disappointing to hear from a former colleague whom I used to respect.

a man says okay but that 's worse in front of a woman Alt: A nerdy man in glasses says “okay but that 's worse; you do get how that’s worse, right?” in front of a woman.

Bill Cassidy gave away the game when he commented that Louisiana’s rate wasn’t that bad if you didn’t count Black women.

In the US, the maternal death rate is 121.8 per 100,000 Black women compared to 24.1 per 100,000 non Black women.

Race has no biological basis and this is UNACCEPTABLE.

We must do better.

I have some bad news for the CPSC about some of their sister agencies under this admin. 😬
