The decision by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to downgrade its recommendations to protect infants from hepatitis B is a dangerous move that will harm children.

All this time I've been taking an expensive biologic drug with unpleasant side effects for my autoimmune connective tissue disease, but according to the NIH director I could have just bought some good shoes and walked it off to make myself less vulnerable in the next pandemic. We're so fucked.
If this does turn into a pandemic, don’t worry, Jay Bhattacharya has a plan!

My first ND told me back in 2009 when I first got sick that low-normal was too low for B12, especially for someone like me with neurologic symptoms. Glad to see "real" science is catching up!

Scientists Found a Major Problem With Vitamin B12 Guidelines, and Your Brain Might Be at Risk
Low-normal B12 in older adults was tied to slower processing, cognitive decline, and brain damage. Scientists warn current requirements may be too low.

You may have heard my arguments against the Electoral College before. Here’s a new one the Founders never anticipated:
If the President is elected by popular vote, he probably wouldn’t selectively punish entire states for voting against him.

Oregon is set to lose an additional $400 million in federal grants awarded for climate action and is among more than a dozen Democratic states losing federal funding after the Trump administration terminated nearly $8 billion for those states this week.

People like to claim that autistics are bad at communicating and like, my dude, the problem does not lie with us, it lies with the web of manipulation and lies and passive aggression and ulterior agendas that you weave around yourselves instead of just doing what we do, which is saying what we mean.

I think there's also an issue with writer's pay falling, so there's less time/inclination to actually research stuff.
We are losing something by having newsrooms where everyone who has more than a few years’ experience has gotten fired. I don’t fault a young writer for not knowing about things that happened before she was born. But now there are no editors to help give context to these stories, either.

When a right-wing man murdered Democratic lawmakers in Minnesota, progressives asked MAGA to tone down the rhetoric to prevent more violence. Within hours of Kirk’s murder, motive still unknown, the right is demanding that the government wage a campaign of violence against their enemies.

@matthewcappucci.bsky.social why do you "hate to say" people may need N95 masks during the bad smoke from Canada? Masks are a tool. As a scientist you should encourage their use where appropriate, not treat them as a punishment. That hurts immunocompromised people who get mocked for masking.
