1/ Last week, RFK Jr’s FDA convened a panel to review the safety of #SSRIs (a class of antidepressants) during pregnancy. Of the 10 panelists, 9 were known critics of antidepressants, many with conflicts of interest. The conversation focused almost entirely on risks—ignoring critical context. 🧵

RFK Jr. just fired thousands of federal workers at crucial health agencies, including the FDA, CDC, and NIH.
These are the people who inspect our food, track infectious diseases, and research life-saving treatments and cures.

This 4th of July, I'm struggling to feel patriotic after the passage of federal legislation that harms many of the people and policies I work hard to care for through healthcare and informatics. Today, I'm reading fixthenews.com as a reminder that wonderful things are happening in the world.

1/ The first #ACIP meeting with RFK Jr.’s handpicked members wrapped up yesterday. Over 4,000 tuned in—a level of attention we haven’t seen since the pandemic. And for good reason: these meetings shape vaccine policy, coverage, timing, access and availability. Here's what happened 👇

Why don’t EHRs do a better job flagging social determinants of health? We track every drug interaction but miss food insecurity and housing instability. Our data priorities reveal our values—not always aligned with what drives health.
