Congratulations @jossreimer.bsky.social - you are going to do a splendid job! If you need anything, just ask. I may be in Edmonton but Colonnade used to be like a second home!
@minakimes.bsky.social all good?
Our lab, located at the University of Alberta (Canada), is hiring a postdoctoral scholar and/or PhD student to work on the contribution of genetic mutations to neurological disorder mechanisms and response to treatments. Please share widely! can-acn.org/postdoctoral...
THE GOAT IS HERE
Just throwing this out there - Jason Kelce needs to star in a #Christmas #movie where he plays a young #Santa who is a retired hitman and decides to make it up to all the people he hurt by bringing presents to their kids. Action with a heart. Bonus cameo from John Wick. #NFL #MNF #Santa
Also I give credit when due...and you certainly deserve credit.
It's pretty toxic and unsupportive out there these days. I used to give comments like that to budget meetings. The Chairs always appreciated my perspective. You gotta say it how it is and let the people at the table deal with the egg covering some faces.
@wat3rm370n.bsky.social Nicely done. Gave a perspective that would irritate the intolerant minority and bolster the data/statistics wonks. Muchly appreciate your voice.
Watching #ACIP discussion on #HBV #vaccine and saw this. What is exactly the gripe the intolerant minority has? If these people truly thought the vaccine was dangerous, wouldn't they just vote to withdrawal it?
Or is this really about keeping the intolerant minority voters happy?
Guess MNF is turning into MNI - Monday Night Interceptions.

oh hey blue sky! been a minute, but I wanted to share this recent episode of #ThisisEdmonton, where @jatetro.bsky.social breaks down Alberta's tense relationship with vaccines, the measles, and the flu.
From face palm to round of applause, check it out 🔽

TFW you listen back to a recording and realize you made an unforced error of Pete Carroll Super Bowl play calling proportions...
2025 is the year of re-emerging pathogens it seems. TB is the perfect silent predator and once established, very difficult to treat. I just hope it is not MDR.

I think it's time to make this meme viral again! Repost it. Like it. Send it to your friends. Put it on other platforms - we need to get the word out to the kids that it's okay to get vaccinated even if their parents don't like it!
I had a few choice words to say about why #Canada has lost its #measles #eradication status. For those wondering, this is part of a fantastic report from CTV Edmonton - check out the whole story at: www.ctvnews.ca/edmonton/art...
For anyone who sees an anti who says that the right would never support #measles #vaccines #vaccination or believes that #vaccineswork - make sure to send them this: www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
In recognition of the loss of #measles #elimination status in #Canada - may I ask those who believe in #vaccines and also choose to #GetVaccinated share their support and maybe this logo - and feel free to make it better as I admit it's rather clunky. #Vaccines4Life
If you believe #vaccines help to save lives and keep us all safe - then share the slogan and repost the logo that defines their use.

Not AT ALL happy. It will take a year or so to notice the effects but I do feel for the healthcare professionals who are going to deal with yet another re-emergence. I warned about this over 10 years ago - people back then said it can't be that bad. Well...
aaaaaaaaaand #Canada loses its #measles #elimination status. Not that it comes as a surprise mind you. I was warning on the radio 10 years ago this was going to happen. We're here now. It's never been a war against germs - just mis and dis and anti.

Over a decade ago I wrote about the risk of #chikungunya migration from the South to America in @popsci.com - but that was Florida. Today, it's #NYC. The inconvenience continues...

I wrote about #chikungunya over a decade ago for @huffpost.com - back then it was a warning to travellers heading South. Today, it's relevant for people in #NYC - how times have changed!

Don't mind me. I'm just reading the @jama.com article showing no higher incidence of #autism due to #acetaminophen (erm #Tylenol) use during pregnancy. For those about to anti, it involves 2.48M people.
