Well now, would you look at that? A massive, 4-YEAR-LONG study of NEARLY 30 MILLION people in France found that individuals who received a COVID-19 mRNA vaccine had a 74% LOWER risk of death from severe COVID-19 compared to unvaccinated individuals and ZERO increased risk of all-cause mortality.

🤬 the falsification and rewriting of history in the US should have been classed as a crime against humanity a century ago....
Sometime in the past few days or weeks, EPA altered some but not all of its climate change webpages, de-emphasising and even deleting references to the burning of coal, oil, and natural gas, which scientists say is the overwhelming cause of climate change.

I love this verse... and the heartfelt sentiments... 💝
To those who are with me
And those who are not,
To those whom I've cried with
And laughed with and fought,

To family born with
And those who chose me,
To loved ones no more
And those I've yet to see,

To those who have loved me
(Let me love them, too)
You give my life meaning—
I'm thankful for you.

A claim circulating after the ACIP vote: hep B vaccines were approved on "less than a week" of safety data.

This is false.

It conflates the diary-card window for expected minor reactions with actual safety monitoring. That window is short because acute inflammation resolves in days. 1/2

Trump is predictable for his utter lack of ethics. He will:
a) give anything to his idol... on a silver platter;
b) claim he is owed the Nobel Prize;
c) point out how much "money' he saved;
d) claim we and Russia are owed the Resources of Ukraine.
With Trump and his Putin loving cronies, Macron is effing spot on:

"“There is a chance that the US will betray Ukraine on territory without clarity on security guarantees,” Macron said according to the English language notes of the call that DER SPIEGEL has obtained."
"We Must Not Leave Ukraine and Volodymyr Alone with These Guys"
DER SPIEGEL has obtained notes from a conference call involving EU leaders - including Germany's Friedrich Merz and France's Emmanuel Macron - showing just how little trust Europe has in Washington.

If you disliked Vinay Prasad's CBER memo that outlined his plans to destroy evidence-based vaccine regulation based on unsupported claims that COVID vaccines kill children, you are REALLY going to hate what is going down at this week’s ACIP meeting.

Everytime I hear " but Ice is only going after illegals with criminal recirds"... I think of evidence like this!!
ICE tried to kidnap Elaine Miles an Indigenous woman in Redmond. She showed them her tribal ID card and they still did not believe her. She told them to call the Umatilla Tribal enrollment office but they refused. They even tried to take her phone.

A Bluesky Perk: instead of getting your news from media rags written by non scientists.... directly follow those who actually are professionals!!
Thank you Professor Caplan-Auerbach!!
Speaking of bad science in media (and I am using the term "media" pretty loosely here), allow me to use The Daily Mail as evidence of why you should get your science information from reputable agencies rather than crap websites. I'm not going to link the article, but it looks like this:

The people of Chicago won

Trump, Kristi Noem and ICE lost

Not only did Greg Bovino and his agents leave the city in disgrace

A judge ruled that they must release as many as 615 unjustly detained immigrants

Plus-they must stop pressuring immigrants to voluntarily leave

Never
Stop

Saddened to learn of Ken Easley's death.
Many probably never knew, part of his "toughness" came at the expense of his health. He needed a kidney transplant in 1990 (in part probably due to overuse of ibuprofen...). May he Rest In Peace and may others remember his Life!

I’m just a lowly public health professor so what do I know, but I would call starvation irreparably harmful.
The Trump administration tells the Supreme Court it can’t be compelled to fully fund SNAP because paying out the money would “irreparably harm” the government, while SNAP beneficiaries … *won’t* be irreparably harmed by going hungry? The balance of equities here is completely upside down.
