To be a contrarian, since the human mind has caused more death and destruction than anything, she’s not all wrong. It’s just an attribution problem.

Great and timely thread. We see this reliance on faith a lot in the Bible Belt, but with the growth of β€œfunctional” medicine and wellness influencers, it’s become an epidemic.

1/n I don’t understand the new Dept HHS assertion that childhood vaccines weren’t tested in placebo-controlled trials. That’s simply not true. I did a quick (non-exhaustive) PubMed search and they came up pretty quickly. For example here’s MMR

Sorry, just did 3 weekends in a row myself, and I’m sure a holiday weekend is even worse.

This letter is just freakishly incoherent and inappropriate. It’s what you would get if you put, like, Tim Pool or Ben Shapiro into a US Attorney’s chair, made them drink a quart of bourbon, and told them to get angry at something

RFK Jr. says he’ll know what causes autism by September. Someone should tell him NIHβ€”his own departmentβ€”already funds $300 million per year in autism research, yielding hundreds of studies. Autism has been studied for decades and he’s claiming he will know the cause in 4 months?

β€œOur nation’s health has been undermined,β€œ said Jesse Roman, MD, ATS Treasurer. β€œThe Administration again cut employees at HHS, directly impacting ATS members working at NIH, CDC, FDA. Our nation’s ability to prevent, detect, and respond to health crises is threatened. We urge Congress to act.”

I know not everyone can keep up with all the grant terminations, but it’s important to know what we’re losing so I’ll try to compile them here.

First is a study on intimate partner violence with perinatal women (note: the #1 cause of death during pregnancy is homicide)
