My resident dog Ichabod feels that alt text in his soul 😂

I didn’t know you fostered too! Give Sugar (and Charlie) a pet for me.

She’s fostered in Pittsburgh but the originating shelter is in OH (and transport can potentially be arranged to other nearby states)

The shooter has since been arrested (according to the mayor of Wilkinsburg on our neighborhood Facebook group)

Whoa.

Will this directly update the CDC-funded model that Lisa Prosser and David Hutton's team previously presented to ACIP, or do you envision this as an entirely independent effort?

oh no what did i miss

it’s so deeply disconcerting to work where I work as a (differently) neurodivergent person with an (unrelated) autoimmune B vitamin deficiency right now 🫠

…which is extra terrifying, because widespread false positives for an autoimmune etiology open the hell mouth www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

To your last point, though: does the leucovorin request set a precedent for FDA to then approve FRAA tests for presumptive diagnosis & treatment despite limited evidence (effectively “rebranding” autism)?

I assume by now they’ve also done extensive bloodwork to rule out autoimmune etiologies, right? (E.g. my B12 deficiency from pernicious anemia presented partly as a drastic increase in migraine frequency / severity.)

Japan tried this. They suspended MMR in 1993 and used monovalent vaccines.

Result: coverage plummeted, measles and rubella cases shot up, they had multiple measles outbreaks (one with >100k cases), and they then switched back to MMR.

Beyond “just” desecrating rigorous regulatory authority to benefit supplement grifters, I am deeply concerned that this sets up an attack on VICP by rebranding autism as central folate deficiency (e.g. by licensing a serum autoantibody test with that indication): www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Have we considered that maybe these clowns are just trying to rationalize their fear of needles?
