A 2015 study found that before the M.M.R. vaccine was widely available, measles might have been responsible for up to half of all infectious disease deaths in children. nytimes.com/2025/03/06/hea…

Trump just deported a transplant surgeon and professor at Brown University living in the US on a valid H1B work visa with no alleged crimes. No due process. As fits the racist Trump regime’s bill, she is from Lebanon. We now live in a fascist nation. statnews.com/2025/02/11/ame…

NIH funding cuts could cost the U.S. $16 Billion and 68,000 jobs. An interactive tool from Joshua Weitz and team shows the local impact across the U.S. - down to the county level. This isn’t abstract - these numbers affect real communities and real lives: scienceimpacts.org

Congress has final authority over the budget. But this Congress has so far shown little resistance to even the most extreme proposals. Whether they allow this to move forward will be a defining moment for the future of science, public health, and federal responsibility.

Q. You Just announced a nominee for the U.S. Surgeon General who never finished her residency & is not a practicing physician. Can you explain why you picked her to be America's top doctor? Trump: Because Bobby thought she was fantastic…I don't know her

Rightfully, the cuts to Medicaid (over 10M people will lose their health care) and the tax cuts for the rich have been the story of the disastrous Republican budget bill. But I read the whole thing. And there are some hidden rats in there you need to know about. 1/ A quick🧵

We are going to lose an entire generation of scientists. NSF, one of the largest federal funder of STEM education has seen an 80% reduction in funding, including support for trainees, so far this year. “You can’t have science without scientists”

America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

1) Here's a quick example of how the federal government is censoring the best scientific research. It's not just cuts to ongoing research. It's new grant submissions too...

Science admits what it doesn’t know. That’s what makes it powerful. Pseudoscience pretends to know everything. That’s what makes it dangerous.

Vaccination has saved millions of lives. GAVI has given over 1 billion vaccinations. This decision will end many lives, mostly children. I knew when he was confirmed that Secretary Kennedy would add to his body count, but I didn’t imagine it number in the millions.

Medicaid provides reimbursement to medical providers for medical services. This means NO ONE can sit at home and collect Medicaid checks. The payments don't go to "Medicaid recipients." They go do doctors and hospitals. 1/5
