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. RT if you're with me.

BREAKING: In shocking footage of Trump in 2020 that is now going viral, Trump says it’s against the law for a president to call in the National Guard on his own: “We can't call in the National Guard unless we're requested by a governor.” MAGA = 🤡.

RFK Jr.’s extreme anti-vax views — and his related conflicts of interest — were a huge problem during his confirmation process. So he promised not to change the vaccine advisory panel. Today, he fired every single expert on that panel. It's a public health disaster.

Today's decision is about undermining independent medical expertise and will only further endanger the health of the American public, especially children. bit.ly/43Bwd80

If you have never stuck a needle in the back of an infant and watched pus drip out please don’t tell me I am overreacting to RFK Jr.’s assault on vaccines.

RFK Jr released names of 8 ppl he is placing into ACIP to replace 17 removed Actually a majority are v reasonable - 2 of 8 however align heavily w conspiracy & anti-vax but as I discuss, their presence may have a silver lining My thoughts: Thread cnbc.com/amp/2025/06/11… 1/

Cody Meissner MD Is a pediatric infectious disease expert at my Alma mater - Dartmouth. He is a rigorous scientist and has defended vaccines while formally recognizing underlying issues that are causing people to turn away from them - such as vaccine success driving down disease

Perhaps the biggest problem is it is a panel of people who, generally speaking, are generally NOT: experts in diseases vaccines prevent experts in vaccines infectious disease epidemiology clinical trials If this was the private sector, no way would this group pass muster 3/

What do the genetics of catatonia look like? See our new systematic review in Psychological Medicine: doi.org/10.1017/S00332…. ❗️99 studies ❗️8600 individuals ❗️47 genetic conditions ❗️2 linkages for periodic catatonia More in 🧵...

More than 98% of families in this country choose to vaccinate their young children. But now, vaccine policy is being shaped by the small, extreme minority that doesn’t. This decision doesn’t reflect, protect or support families.

New paper on EEG in catatonia from the indefatigable James Luccarelli: psychiatryonline.org/doi/full/10.11…. ✅144 patients with catatonia and EEG (by far the largest n) ✅Catatonia not associated with abnormal EEG ✅Delirium (often comorbid in this sample) was associated with abnormal EEG

This is a travesty and a nightmare. The US was a founder of @Gavi. It lowers vaccine costs for the world, has vaccinated 1B children, and averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year -- and RFK Jr will be personally responsible.

Hepatitis B can be passed from parent to baby at birth - and when that happens, the consequences can be deadly. It is unscientific & dangerous to ignore the success of U.S. vaccination programs or argue that the U.S. should not vaccinate babies for hepatitis B at birth.

I’ve worked with so many adults in their 40s/50s/60s who tell me that their childhoods were intensely miserable—they were depressed, anxious, traumatized, suicidal, at times even attempting suicide—and yet they didn’t seek clinical help, they didn’t come to clinical attention,

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.
