This flowchart helps determine eligibility for COVID-19 vaccination based on age and health conditions. It starts by asking if the individual is 65 years or older or has a high-risk health condition, such as cancer, stroke, chronic kidney disease, diabetes, heart disease, HIV, or obesity. If they do, the chart indicates they should be able to get the vaccine covered by insurance. If not, the next step is to see if a doctor can diagnose them with a qualifying condition. If a diagnosis is possible, they should be able to get the vaccine covered by insurance. If they cannot get a qualifying diagnosis they can check for a professional organization recommending vaccination, such as the American Academy of Pediatrics. If such an organization recommends vaccination, they are advised to show this information to their clinician and insurance provider. If the clinician and/or insurance provider will not provide and/or cover vaccine, they may need to pay out of pocket for the vaccine or travel to receive it.
ππ§΅We know you have many questions about COVID-19 vaccine. Hereβs what we know and our best guess as to how access will be restricted.
TL;DR: best guess: COVID-19 vaccine is likely to be restricted (at least) to those 65+ and those under 65 with risk factors.

Iβm hearing a lot of despair and βwhatβs the pointβ-ing.
Hereβs the point:
ONE less person kidnapped by ICE.
ONE more child vaccinated.
ONE grant reinstated.
ONE more PEPFAR treatment.
ONE more meal to a hungry kid.
ONE more person covered by Medicaid.
One life is ALWAYS worth resistance.

talking with reporters about the current chaos at the NIH, it's super clear how much of the convo is about HOW the NIH and federal funding of biomedical research works. Super grateful to the education I've received on twitter and from blogs, especially @drugmonkey.bsky.social's and physioproffe's

It's one thing to be reminded that "elections have consequences," but quite another to insist that the best response to the abuse of authority is to be restrained, demure, neutral. For university leaders the exception is their opposition to endowment taxes. On this topic, they're inclined to be positively brat.
Corporate and educational leaders must not put on a demure face and stay silent while civil society is undermined by the diktat of executive orders. We must not sacrifice academic freedom and a healthy civil society for the short-term gains of anticipatory compliance. We must instead cultivate in our institutions the ability to bring different kinds of people together in common purpose, the will to protect the vulnerable, and the resilience needed for our institutions to successfully pursue their missions. Their missions, not the agenda of whoever controls the powers of the central government. Let's hope that the 2025 word of the year isn't "submissive."
Not all university presidents are cowards. This, from the pres of Wesleyan, should be mandatory reading for leaders.

What can you do?
Donβt give up hope. Dictators feed off your hopelessness.
Donβt quit. Dictators want you to give up.
Punch back. Dictators are bullies, and bullies are cowards.
Stay tethered to the truth. Dictators need you to believe their lies.
Resist. Stand with others.
Pandemics do not begin with official announcements.
They start with quiet deletions, missing reports, and assurances that there is "no cause for concern."
Pay attention.
Absolutely. Grind it to a halt.
