What happened today at #Emory & #CDC should outrage us all.

We once settled our disagreements through debate—but now, fueled by misinformation and disinformation, we are more divided than ever and innocent lives are being lost. The state of affairs in our country is truly heartbreaking.

Canadians have cooled on US travel Mexico is looking like a much better option.

Canadians make up the largest proportion—nearly 28 percent—of international travelers visiting Florida. They also comprise the largest number of international visitors for the entire United States.

But that comfortable relationship may be taking a turn.

CDC official overseeing COVID-19 vaccine recommendations resigns The resignation follows an order by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to change the agency's guidance.

Dr. Panagiotakopoulos said, “My career in public health and vaccinology started with a deep-seated desire to help the most vulnerable members of our population, and that is not something I am able to continue doing in this role”.

I worry that not enough of a big deal is being made about how long-term the devastation of these budget cuts to our scientific and health agencies will be, beyond the absolute ruin they will cause in the acute period.

When the government cancels your research grant, here’s what you can do The mass cancellation of US federal grants marks yet another escalation in political interference in science, but there are ways to keep crucial research going.

Powerful action plea to not stop research by @lkfazio.bsky.social in @nature.com:

“Scientists can’t solve the politicization of science on our own”

In lieu of ‘systemic solutions’ “social scientists still have some options to continue research on targeted topics”
