Pastor Kirk Milhoan of the Diocese of Disinformation is apparently boarding a flight right now and is unavailable.

He is currently the Chair of ACIP.

As a reminder, ACIP is meeting right now.

#ACIP liaison member Jason Goldman: "This meeting is completely inappropriate...you are wasting taxpayer dollars...you are not accurately presenting the data to the American public, and that is a disservice...Your data is questionable."

ACIP is no longer a legitimate scientific body.

Period.

This is a goat rodeo of radical anti-vaxxers.

We Dissent: Lessons From the 2025 Community-Acquired Pneumonia (CAP) Guidelines

IDSA withdrew from what was to be ATS/IDSA CAP guidelines b/c of impasse over the panel's recommendation to treat CAP with antibacterial therapy when a viral pathogen is identified.

Australia just recorded zero cervical cancer cases in women under 25 for the first time since records began in 1982. The amazing result of HPV vaccination.

The interim CDC director who will rubber stamp the ACIP recommendations on MMRV vaccine and COVID vaccine is neither a scientist nor a physician. He is a former silicon valley executive.
When was the last time you consulted a corporate executive for guidance on your health? 🤔...I'll wait.

Reaction's to ACIP's vote are coming in. The American Academy of Pediatrics says the meeting "promoted false claims and misguided information about vaccines as part of an unprecedented effort to limit access to routine childhood immunizations and sow fear and mistrust in vaccines."

ICE just quietly unsuspended their contract with spyware maker #Paragon.

Remember them? Caught earlier this year being used to hack Italian journalists.

For many years I have been posting little observations online. What you may not know is that for many years, artists have been illustrating them - for no reason other than they wanted to respond. Below is a thread of some of these beautiful drawings because they should be seen 🧵

Hey everyone,
On a whim, I crafted four tiny clover-shaped paintings. These are adorably small, mildly spooky, and completely ready to hang. If they're popular, I'll definitely make more.
These four are up at Etsy - ShadowArtFinds.
Have a legendary weekend, my artsy friends.

Today's ACIP meeting is usually a time where experts come together to inform the future of vaccines. That is not what today will be. That is not what we can stand behind. The AAP will continue to recommend its own childhood vaccine schedule -- just as we have since the 1930s

Phasing out NIH’s HIV clinical guidelines is flat-out immoral and unethical.

These guidelines drive early diagnosis, ART initiation, and viral suppression—82% linked to care within 30 days, 69% virally suppressed by 6 months.

Removing them puts millions of lives at risk.
