I attended a talk by a scientist at a Chinese University and realized that all the background climate data that she used came from the US (CO₂ Keeling Curve, global temperature time series, etc.). Although China funds a lot of research, the destruction of US science will affect science globally.

I told them absolutely not. They are entitled to a rest and I would not be overstepping boundaries.

👏 Congrats to Ghana, Kenya & Tanzania! Their progress shows what’s possible when communities trust public health.
Meanwhile, the U.S. risks losing its measles elimination status as anti-science misinformation erodes trust. We should learn from these successes: evidence works when trust is strong.
