Trump is signing an executive order today recommending that the MMR vaccine be separated into separate vaccines. There is no scientific basis for this recommendation. Separate measles, mumps and rubella vaccines are generally not available in the U.S. Vaccines do not cause autism.

The worst part about doing a manuscript revision is re-immersing yourself in it. What did we do?? How am I going to address that?? #academiasky
“The reason we’re having a measles outbreak is because of the Covid lockdowns, because people didn’t — children during that period did not get vaccinated.” It’s a day that ends in Y, so RFK Jr. is lying again. The antivax movement and his incompetence are why we have an ongoing measles outbreak.

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

A gentle reminder when this world is really infuriating or depressing you: there are still books. They won’t solve all the planet’s problems — unless, maybe, you read them. And, regardless, the studies show that books make us happy. And empathetic. And more knowledgeable.
This weekend I will watch 6 soccer games. Two will be the World Cup. The other four will be in #USL-2. Do you want to grow soccer in the US? Support your local clubs! @vermontgreenfc.bsky.social #UTG
