If you were wondering why republican voters seem to persistently believe things are looking up.

DON’T RANK CUOMO!
If you live in New York City, please don’t rank Andrew Cuomo on the ballot.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is a well-known quackery service promoted for various diseases which have no cure.
There’s a reason that this is promoted for diseases with no cure – people are desperate and therefore vulnerable and easier to exploit.
RFKJr is also going after worker safety in the heat in a time of climate change.
Bloomberg – Heat Is Bad for Workers’ Health. RFK Jr. Doesn’t Care. Temperatures are soaring, so naturally Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is getting rid of all the experts who have been devising on-the-job protections. June 6, 2025 at 11:00 AM UTC By Mark Gongloff Soaring temperatures, which are deadlier than any other natural disaster, will […]
Why are more than 300 Americans still dying every week in the ongoing pandemic?
And I really wish podcasters would stop saying “during covid” already.
RFKJr’s culture war political stunts will have real world consequences on financial access to life-saving vaccines.
This is a matter of life and death and serious known risks to the pregnant and babies when moms to be are unvaccinated.
RFKJr is a menace to public health & science.
“While Kennedy has a long history of promoting anti-vaccine conspiracy theories, he has not explicitly promoted chlorine dioxide as a treatment. However, in January, during his Senate confirmation hearing, he referenced chlorine dioxide while praising Trump for “looking at all of the different remedies” for Covid…”
People are still being complacent about the anti-vaxxers in positions of authority.
I’m worried about people using this as a reason to “not worry about vaccine access” when “life hacks” and “one neat trick” for vaccine access is not an individualism solution to anything.
RFKJr is replacing the vaccine committee with anti-vax pandemic denier cranks.
After sacking the entire vaccine committee, RFKJr announced with whom he intends to replace them, and they’re lots of anti-vax Great Barrington Declaration MAGA Qanon types.
If you “agree with” any of MAHA you’re signing onto eugenics.
MAHA is a movement involving anti-vax eugenicist principles. Even if you can pick out one little part of it that sounds ok, do you really want to sign on to the stink of eugenics?
American Medical Association calls for a senate investigation into CDC ACIP committee firings ahead of the vaccine meeting.
The public comments period opened and CDC ACIP committee members were all abruptly fired.
Anti-mRNA is Anti-Vax.
Make no mistake, people spreading fear of mRNA vaccines are spreading anti-vax misinformation.
I was on The Letterhack Presents with Matt Strackbein to talk about why FAFO doesn’t matter because there’s no Invisible Hand of the Market. .
DOES FAFO EVEN MATTER? – #MAGA REFUSES TO #LEARN W/ CHLOE HUMBERT! – The Letterhack Among other aspects, we talked about how people didn’t learn from the pandemic, and once you F around and find out unvaccinated, it’s too late for the kids who died to “learn” anything from such an experience.
There’s no magic in any of the covid tests on the market.
Getting what’s convenient (and legal) for yourself is the way to go. There are no silver bullets available anyhow. You still need a multi-layered strategy. There’s no a la carte option if you want to, or need to, avoid covid. I have heard that people are contemplating or suggesting switching to pet covid tests just […]
CDC ACIP doctor already explained the problem with “shared decision making” on vaccine recommendations.
And I quoted this in my CDC ACIP public comment.
The headline we should be seeing: Two cryptocurrency selling regimes in the Americas join together to leave world health behind and form their own bs wellness organization.
Unfortunately the media isn’t doing a great job with this one.
I don’t trust Paul Offit.
I wouldn’t recommend looking to Paul Offit for leadership on vaccines, because what the Trump administration is doing he was lobbying for in the Biden administration all along. This is from a thread I posted on social media after becoming concerned that people might think this is the guy to lead up championing vaccine access. If you […]
Weirdo anti-vax infectious disease denier wonders why people who get vaccinated don’t want hugs from her.
Anti-vaxxers often say that they simply don’t want to be compelled to get vaccinated, which is also anti-vax, because vaccines work best with large uptake. But then they clearly want to stop other people getting vaccinated…
Free market capitalist Republicans… oh wait – they want to deny your choice of dental health too.
I hope everybody understands now that this was never about choice.
Marty Makary was copying Stephen Miller and saying America voted for this.
I’ve seen a lot of people on social media mad that Marty Makary said, “America doesn’t want covid boosters” and of course this doesn’t mean Americans don’t want covid boosters. He said “America doesn’t want covid boosters”. Important distinction.
Wow. FDA VRBPAC meeting public comments. Not great. More people need to step up.
