“Experts also warn that when coverage falls below 90%, the risk of outbreaks rises sharply. Children who are immunocompromised or too young to be vaccinated rely on community immunity, they say.

Today, about 63% of counties meet that minimum threshold, compared to 84% before the pandemic.”

Happy fall y'all

The Vice President of the United States used his social media page to tell Joy Reid, a private citizen with no connection to the government, that she should express "gratitude" for how this country has treated her.

Black women remain the most consistent targets in all of this.

Disney officially shuts down Hulu after 20 years After more than two decades as one of the key names in streaming, Hulu’s days as a standalone platform are officially numbered.

I was a beta user for Hulu for a few years before it came out and after. I think the downfall started when they got rid of the cool ass ahead of its time desktop app AND further when Disney acquired them. geekspin.co/disney-offic...

i don’t care about the effect of A given introduction of B. i care about the effect of B given the introduction of B to formerly A patients in observational rwe data. any hints? #biostatistics #epidemiology #stats

used google to look for literature showing how to use marginal structurally models with the ps smr weighting (probably ATC) rather than iptw or ipcw. google gave me conflicting responses in that stupid top ai box every time and suggested refs that clearly did not include the words i asked for. smh

Or, of course, @mississippifreepress.org 🙂

i did the same thing last night. i would much rather hang with the xenomorphs

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

if i see one more study that only uses t-tests when they have more than enough to go beyond them OR they have nonparametric data, i'm screaming. oh wait, i just did.

same folks tho that would be (and have been) mad when there is an outbreak that harms them or their kid. and a worse for today? they’ve cut back on foodborne illness tracking and investigations. good luck getting that recall now…

they just tell us it’s not real. it’s all made up. the diseases i learn about and work with are not to be fucked with. even the chronic ones like diabetes that people weirdly just accept as normal

have i ever touched my phone in traffic? yeah, mostly when my phone decides to cancel navigation. but that group chat can wait, the sexting can wait, the game can wait.

RFK Jr. is living in a pretend anti-vax world Unfortunately, he is wreaking havoc in the real one.

Unfortunately, he is wreaking havoc in the real one.

almost forgot that this weekend my annual birthday/holiday wishlist is to be sent to the fam. i better get cracking. *inserts lego.com and libro.fm wishlist links in email* done!!

If you're a reporter, please stop referring to RFK Jr and his cronies as "vaccine skeptics." They're not skeptical. Skepticism would be fine. Skeptics look at evidence and can be persuaded.

These people are extremist anti-vaccine cranks, and that's how news organizations should describe them.

you’re still in the A too? PUT THE DAMN PHONE DOWN

seems we did out job too well
