We are former CDC officials. RFK Jr.'s change to vaccine guidance is propaganda.
Under Secretary Kennedy, CDC materials can no longer be assumed to reflect scientific authority.
โThe rewriting of CDCโs guidance is not a routine update. It is a warning. If scientific consensus can be erased with a keystroke & replaced with politically curated doubt, institutions meant to safeguard national health are at risk.โ

Phenomenal conversation. A sober look at corruption in politics and a hopeful message about building a better future.

As you attended No Fascists (how I brand it) events today, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny. It's outstanding and something you will keep referring to over and over again.

The Trump attacks on cancer research are taking away your future cures. Everyone who may get cancer should care.
It is a shitshow. And yes, people will die as a result.

NIH to prioritize human-based research technologies

"NIH [Bhattacharya] to prioritize human-based research technologies."
Huh? Seems obscure. โ๏ธโ๏ธ
But it's devious. It's worth being explicit:
This is NOT about science. Cancer/demential cure work already uses the best expt system.

Trump has ordered the US government to move forward with plans to mine the ocean floor an area nearly every other country considers off-limits to industrial exploitation. His executive order sidesteps a decades-old international treaty ratified by every major coastal nation except the United States.
