Excellent PolitiFact reporting by Madison Czopek on thimerosal in vaccines. This is exactly the kind of careful, science-based coverage this complex topic needs. Worth reading for anyone following vaccine policy discussions. politifact.com/article/2025/j…

Excellent piece from CIDRAP on how ideology is displacing science at CDC’s vaccine advisory board. The vote against thimerosal-containing flu vaccines - despite no evidence of harm - is a warning sign. Grateful for clear reporting by Chris Dall. cidrap.umn.edu/adult-non-flu-…
