Politico: tr.ee/vuEo2Z

Platforming this kind of negligent policy at the highest levels of our public health system, quite simply, kills Americans.

We won't leave our families and kids to be collateral in their fight to bring back preventable disease.

ACIP CHAIR’S COMMENTS — The head of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s panel of independent vaccine advisers recently questioned the necessity of the polio vaccine — spurring a sharp backlash from Democrats and public health experts. “As you look at polio, we need to not be afraid to consider that we are in a different time now than we were then,” said Kirk Milhoan, chair of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, on the podcast “Why Should I Trust You?” “Our sanitation is different, our risk of disease is different, and so those all play into the evaluation of whether this is worthwhile of taking a risk for a vaccine or not,” Milhoan, a pediatric cardiologist and a senior fellow at the anti-mRNA Independent Medical Alliance, added. Milhoan also said that “we have to take into account” whether the U.S. is enjoying herd immunity, and whether the disease burden could go up “if we take away all of the herd immunity.” Key context: Before the polio vaccine became available in 1955, roughly 16,000 polio cases occurred each year in the U.S., often paralyzing children. If polio vaccination rates dip, the U.S. could see the return of a disease that once caused widespread fear in America, critics of Kennedy’s advisory panel warn.

We can't believe we have to say this, but POLIO IS REALLY BAD.

RFK Jr.'s "independent" "expert" ACIP is destroying the foundations of our public health system.

It cannot be clearer: if we want to save lives, we have to #RemoveRFKJr.

Three reasons out of many to #SaveNCAR. NCAR keeps us informed for extreme weather — and when we are informed, we can prepare. Defunding NCAR leaves us all stranded when it matters the most.

The same people who are funding ICE are now in charge of science and deciding what research gets funded.

You think they are going to do anything other than use science as a weapon to carry out their eugenics bullshit?

They have no goodwill. WAKE UP.

This is Alex Pretti.

This morning he was murdered by ICE. Six ICE agents held him down and shot him at point blank range. Alex was a nurse and researcher at the VA.

Our thoughts are with his loved ones and we stand united in action calling for the abolishment of ICE.

#ScientistsAgainstICE

ICE must be abolished and brought to justice. This is beyond politics. We have a moral obligation to stand on the right side of history.

America is in dangerous territory.

The combination of a masked federal paramilitary force being used against civilians, the intentional spread of extremist ideology, and the censorship and use of “science” by the state to harm specific groups of people has never ended well.

Attention folks in the weather, climate, disaster, wildfire, and Earth science communities: NSF has just published a new "Dear Colleague" letter inviting feedback (by Mar 13) on the proposal to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). www.nsf.gov/funding/...

From winter storms to wildfires, NCAR is a world leader in measuring climate data to predict extreme weather events.
Without these predictions, lives are put in danger. Save Lives, Save NCAR.

This trial is all shades of unethical - and par for the course for a HHS that could not care less about killing people while they pursue anti-scientific ends.

An HHS with RFK Jr at its head will be unethical. It's time we removed him. Take action with us at standupforscience.net/impeach-rfkjr

Pretty illuminating that while HHS is trying to do this unethical experiment on Africans, they're also treating its health institutions with utter disrespect.

The US is bracing for extreme weather. Republicans are making it harder to forecast and prepare for it. Headline screenshot: A massive winter storm will hit large parts of the US through the weekend. Picture of the winter storm moving east over a map of the US, with severity of the storm indicated in gradations of red to blue.

Republicans in Congress are shutting down NCAR. The National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, CO, is home to scientists that track and forecast our weather. They maintain large-scale models, collect data, and accurately pinpoint when dangerous weather conditions start to develop. Picture of two scientists looking at a monitor.

As weather becomes more extreme, accurate forecasts mean better preparation. Better preparation can mean the difference between saving people's lives, or stranding them. If Congress shuts down NCAR, we will be flying blind. Take Action to #SaveNCAR tr.ee/save-ncar

As Americans are hunkering down this weekend, congressional Republicans are stripping away the science that keeps us safe and prepared for future extreme weather.

NCAR isn't just a lab, it's the beating heart of US meteorology.
