A new lab model from @wilburlam.bsky.social & team can sustain blood clots for a long time, allowing detailed study of how they form and resolve. It opens new paths for treatment, with big implications for stroke, heart attack, sickle cell & more. Now out in @nature.com. bit.ly/3FVeUFD

We are very close to a near cure for two of the highest-mortality cancers we know: glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. These are both mRNA based treatments which are losing their funding during stage I and II trials. Thousands will die needlessly because of this motherfucker and his lies.

RFK JR on Measles Outbreaks just now: "It is not unusual. There are measles outbreaks every year."
It is actually very unusual. This is the first Measles death in the US in 10 years.

So we have reached the point where “end racism” is viewed as a controversial statement. Insane.
Here's what the decision by America's favorite sports league tells us about "anticipatory obedience."

Please media FOCUS. Like a magician, Trump uses distraction to keep attention away from his worst actions. Ignore Gaza, Greenland, and Panama. He can claim we'll raise Atlantis and annex it if he wants to. Focus on all his and Musk's blatantly illegal actions and hammer them home.

Today's PSA for parents from your friendly neighborhood pediatrician:
If you are looking for valid resources on vaccines, please DO NOT rely on government issued "information."
It has lost all credibility.
Please ask your pediatrician.
Thanks for nothing, @SenBillCassidy. #PedSky #MedSky
