Help push us over 2500 letters! Still time to write to your Senators (and get your friends to do the same). Casey Means is a charlatan with dangerous views on contraception, raw milk, vaccines and has a whole lot of conflict of interest--she's making money off it all. Just say no to the quack.

RFK Jr.'s claim that COVID vaccines are deadly? Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. In this new extraordinarily large study, vaccinated individuals had a 74% lower risk of death from severe COVID-19 and a 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality compared to those who were unvaccinated. RFK Jr. is. liar and a fraud, as are Vinay Prasad and Tracy Hoeg at FDA who have made similar false claims about these vaccines. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2842305#note-ZOI251269-1

The folks at Defend Public Health bring you this week’s Whopper of the Week. It’s the 21st century but RFK Jr wants to take us back to the 19th. Yes. Really. Forget Pasteur. Forget Koch. Forget germ theory. We’re back to miasma and terrain theory. The dude is bonkers. And he's gonna kill (more) people.

#Trump, #Musk, #Vought are destroying NIH. What they are creating is a rump-institution that kills research on health disparities by banning grants on words like race, gender, equity etc. They are also creating a whites-only future for research by banning DEI initiatives, which will have its desired effect of reducing the number of black and brown students, post-docs and scientists in biomedical research in the US.

Today in 1854, the pump handle was removed from the water spigot in Soho, London, the site of a terrible cholera outbreak. The sleuthing that led to this intervention really represents the birth of modern epidemiology. H/T Peter Tennant https://www.themarginalian.org/2011/08/26/the-ghost-map-steven-johnson/

My latest for The Nation. The Mpox Outbreak Is a Damning Indictment of the Global Health System: the inequalities and injustices in our medical infrastructure have made the outbreak so much worse than it could have been. https://www.thenation.com/article/world/mpox-outbreak-2024-explainer/

Hi, reporters and editors. The Trump campaign was gonna roll with the architects of swiftboating and told you so two years ago. Yet, you embrace this garbage again and again. Seems like you like it. This is on you now. @npub180j…22v6 @npub14hg…w7dc @npub1dt0…vl75 [@nytimes](https://news.twtr.plus/users/nytimes )

In 2017, Trump was considering cuts to indirect costs to universities. If you don't know how research works, "indirects" support the basic infrastructure that makes science possible. What happens? Deep faculty cuts. Less research. Bad for science. Get organized. #science #medicine #publichealth
