When I explain that boycotting an election over an issue has never once forced a politician to embrace that issue, I'm not "scolding people to vote." I'm explaining reality.

Feel free to sit on your ass! Just don't pretend that your lazy apathy is somehow going to advance your agenda.

The CDC is quiet quitting vaccination.

The ACIP support staff is gone. The 22-23 October meeting has been postponed TBD. No apparent work on the vaccine schedule due for 1 January 2026.

Reminds me of when I visited my motherβ€˜s native East Germany in 1974. We had to book all our hotel accommodations for the entire stay, at the border as part of the entry process. My father said it was to make sure we stay in the special hotel rooms for Americans, the ones with the listening devices.

Thank you, I really needed to read this. I recently stumbled into the care of an IFM doctor, not knowing what that was. I didn’t want to be β€œthat patient” who thinks they know better than their doctor, but the quack alarm bells were ringing. Doubted my instincts, but not anymore.

β€˜It’s a massacre’: CDC battered by government shutdown firings The White House’s mass firing of CDC staff on Friday has decimated offices related to injury prevention, respiratory disease surveillance, and chronic disease, according to four people familiar with t...

Trump blamed the public health response to COVID for his loss in 2020. So now, using the government shutdown as cover, he is making sure there can be no public health response next time.

The first reports of what would eventually be called AIDS and its causative agent identified as HIV were published in the MMWR in 1981 alerting health care and public health systems across the country. A tremendous loss for public health.

Reducing vaccine uptake in 2 ways: make it harder for those who still want them; create doubt and confusion to grow the number who don’t want them anymore.

Both serve same goal: eliminate the use of vaccines by collapsing the market. Same outcome as a ban, but they can blame the manufacturers.

Former CDC Director Susan Monarez testified that RFK Jr. told her to only deal with political appointees and to avoid working with career scientists.

For the sake of public health, RFK Jr. must resign.

Positive dog content (and beautiful pictures from Thailand) is exactly why I come here & your Insta every single day. It’s so easy to lose hope nowadays, but seeing dogs make incredible comebacks from horrific circumstances, and all the good people who help them, gives me reason to hope every day πŸ™

Note there’s no information on the respective population sizes. There are far more vaccinated than unvaccinated people, so there will also be more deaths in the vaccinated group just because there are more of them.
