"Much of the evangelical movement, in aligning itself with Donald Trump, has shown itself to be graceless and joyless, seized by fear, hypocritical, censorious, and filled with grievances." 🔥https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/07/white-evangelicals-gambled-and-lost/613999/

This is not how democracies work — and it’s not good for the health of the nation. The Trump administration's action to oust all members of Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and install a new slate is a coup. Read our statement: bit.ly/43UfMT0 #ACIP

A lot of Americans used to not want to wear a seat belt.

A lot of Americans wanted to be able to smoke indoors.

A lot of Americans regularly consume alcohol, which is a carcinogen.

Public health isn’t built by popular vote. It’s based on science.
MAKARY: 88 percent of American kids, their parents have said no to the covid shot last season. So the vast majority of Americans are saying no.
