I sent them some feedback about exactly this the other day. I expect this will result in no change of course.

The real space science behind 'Project Hail Mary' The science fiction blockbuster wowed audiences with its depiction of space travel and more. Here's what NASA staff and other scientists say about the basis for the amazing events of the film.

Super excited to share this fun story I pitched this story over 2 months ago to four other outlets before NPR accepted it.
Such fascinating interviews! I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed reporting it!

In Talking to Parents About Vaccines, Pediatricians Navigate a Sea of Misinformation

“And doubts about vaccines are increasingly spilling into refusal of other mainstays of pediatric medicine… At a hospital in Boise, Idaho, for example, three infants died last year after their parents declined a shot of vitamin K, administered to newborns to prevent bleeding, said Dr. Amanda Lee”

Pediatrics published the Vaccine Integrity Project’s hepatitis B birth dose vaccine evidence review online. The review looked at: 400+ studies/reports, 40 years of data—and the conclusion was unmistakable.
There is no evidence supporting a delay in the hepatitis B birth dose.

3) Hate what the government is doing to science?

If you answered yes, help me organize the Stand Up for Science rally on March 7th! I need reps from UB, Buff State, Canisius, D’Youville to spread the word. I need general support. DM me!

I treated children for rotavirus in Denmark. The Danish vaccine schedule is no model for the U.S. In Denmark, pediatrician Michael Thwing once saw nearly 20 infants admitted simultaneously with rotavirus. His experience in the U.S. has been completely different.

The danger of adopting a Danish-style vax schedule: "When we remove a vaccine like the meningococcal shot from the routine schedule, we aren’t just changing a line on a chart. We are inviting previously well-controlled diseases back into our high schools & colleges." www.statnews.com/2026/02/06/d...

I am thrilled that GAO accepted my request to study the public health, equity, and economic impacts of RFK Jr.’s reckless decision to eliminate the universal hepatitis B birth-dose recommendation, in response to a letter I led with @repkimschrier.bsky.social & 108 House Democrats.

Action — New Hampshire Families for Vaccines

New Hampshire lawmakers meet Wednesday to advance a bill that would remove ALL childhood vaccine requirements.

Tell our legislators that NH families support the vaccine requirements that keep our babies and kids safe.

As cases of a rare, deadly infection rise, doctors worry fewer teens will get vaccinated Under Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s guidance, the CDC no longer recommends routine vaccination to protect against meningococcal disease.

Do pediatricians make large profits from vaccines? Vaccine critics like to say that pediatricians profit from vaccines. This report found something very different.

People who oppose #vaccines often claim that doctors push them because they're paid to by Pharma or that vaccine administration is a big revenue source for doctors. The reality: Delivering vaccine puts an economic strain on many pediatric practices. www.statnews.com/2026/01/29/p...

Today marks a major moment for child health: the AAP has released its updated 2026 childhood and adolescent immunization schedule. Updated annually to reflect the latest scientific evidence, this year’s schedule is formally endorsed by 12 leading medical and healthcare organizations.

As cases of a rare, deadly infection rise, doctors worry fewer teens will get vaccinated Under Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s guidance, the CDC no longer recommends routine vaccination to protect against meningococcal disease.

“Bacterial meningitis can progress quickly, causing the brain to swell and limbs to develop gangrene and sepsis, and can kill within 24 hours… “It’s even more important now that we get meningococcal vaccines out to people given that we are seeing a spike in this Y strain,” Messacar said.”

Here it is compared across countries instead, with rotavirus as an example:

Denmark is one of very few western countries that doesn't recommend rotavirus vaccines universally (yet?)

As both a parent and pediatrician, it was a stark reminder that we need more and better vaccines - not fewer.
