What an absolute no holds barred badass campaign announcement!!! I've donated and will be cheering you on from Tennessee! Hey #MedSky, let's all donate to help get a pediatrician in the Senate! 🩺🥼👩⚕️
I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...
There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
“No children are dying on my watch,” said Rubio. It's blatantly false. Credible estimates count 190K deaths so far. In Kenya, I am seeing devastating impact, incl this child's starvation & many deaths directly caused by Rubio’s actions. More in my @msnbc.com clip. www.instagram.com/atul.gawande...

Diseases are spreading. The CDC isn't warning the public like it was months ago
Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

Damn. Damn. Damn. Damn them. This was such a promising direction and now the neanderthals in charge of everything in this country and trying to kill us all.
This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social
U.S. spends 10x more for #stillbirth malpractice payouts than is spent globally for stillbirth prevention research. @umichsph.bsky.social @michigansocialwork.bsky.social authors.elsevier.com/a/1kkd-gm40-te
The week-long Amazon boycott starts THIS FRIDAY. (Although forever is better...) Just a reminder that we ARE having an impact. #BoycottAmazon #AmazonBoycott Link to invite your friends: www.facebook.com/events/13171...
Insane to cut #telehealth for Medicare. We should make it easier to get care—not harder. Impacts seniors, anyone with impaired mobility or people who are immunosuppressed. @aafp.bsky.social @aamctoday.bsky.social
Things pediatricians are scared of: Grapes Hot dogs Lawn mowers Unmounted TVs Babies on laps in cars Riders without helmets Ungated pools Crib bumpers Trampolines Hot tubs Guns Things pediatricians are not scared of: Any/all the vaccines
Not too late to get flu shot for you and your kids. We are seeing nonstop flu at the hospital.
How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million. How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65 Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?
This level of censorship extraordinarily disturbing. It is a prime example of how science has never been—and never will be—a value-neutral enterprise. Human values impact what research gets funded, performed, and published. We need people with actual integrity in charge.
Trump officials exerting unprecedented control over CDC scientific journal
"The MMWR has lost its autonomy," one health official told CBS News.

my god, they are trying to force retraction of authorship of already published past studies? Beyond ruining careers and general evil, it absolutely corrupts the scientific literature to not have correct authorship listed
Hearing CDC just advised any of their authors that they have contacted journals to have their names removed as authors on any scientific material that promote gender ideology.
New research from @kgoldmd.bsky.social et al finds that Family Med docs receive about 17 messages per patient-facing clinic hour, the highest of any primary care doc. Payment for patient care over the portal is needed so that primary care docs are still available for routine care. michmed.org/Kkbbe
Revoking price-caps on drugs that save lives is some evil shit.
As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽💻
If you are a federal employee, it is advised to set your social media accounts to private to prevent outside viewership, as reports suggest that loyalty screenings have begun.

They…turned off…National Institutes of Health grants? That’s nearly $50 billion of scientific research.
NIH appears to have canceled/postponed all of its study sections—the independent review panels that approve federal grants for health research. Such grants fund the work/salaries of 300k people at more than 2,500 institutions
