This is a dangerous (and stupid!) waste of taxpayer dollars.

The Human Cost of Failing to Name COVID ‘Airborne’ | The Tyee Safety laws are being sidestepped. One doctor’s nightmare shows how health-care workers pay the price.

Kidney health is a topic near to my family’s heart, along with organ donation which saved my brother’s young life close to 10 years ago. Grateful for research in this increasingly important space worldwide. #worldkidneyday

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.

Comment: We need more buses between Island communities We know that motorists can reach virtually any village, town or city, but public transit users often cannot get where they need to go.

Young workers' perceptions about occupational carcinogens - PubMed BackgroundYoung workers (≤25 years) face a well-documented increased risk of occupational injury, but little is known about their risk for occupational disease or how it compares to older workers, even though similar factors may contribute to both injuries and hazardous exposures.ObjectiveThe object …

Very proud to share this newly published student and postdoc-led survey study we conducted in 2021 to test young (25 years old and under) workers' perceptions about carcinogen exposures in their workplaces. We found good news and bad news. @carexcanada.bsky.social pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41172036/

“Assess your own risk” was the most anti-public health slogan any public health official ever dreamed up.

But, under the guise of being moderate and nuanced, they were also perfectly happy to elevate right disinformation talking points to numb people to the risks of COVID and MAHA.

This post is how I found out we went to the same high school! Dr Kelsey was a force.

When science is understandable, we all win. I've started a national petition calling on all institutions of higher education, and their accreditors, to require science communication and public engagement training for all STEM degrees.

I’m glad this was mentioned in the article that male breast cancer is much more likely to be caused by carcinogenic exposures (read: occupational) than female breast cancer which has the added “benefit”of letting industry/employers off the hook.

Delighted to receive this funding to continue our teams’ work on understanding the burden of occupational skin cancer in Canada!

Interesting disclaimer from a group of authors who had been helping develop the latest ROBINS risk of bias tool but jumped ship rather than put their names to the publication researchonline.lshtm.ac.uk/id/eprint/46... #episky

What a petty and stupid little cunt.

As an epidemiologist myself, I’m unclear how these computer scientists and economists think they’re using epidemiology to own history??? Kindly don’t, friends.

I talk to my computer when using Windows already, it’s just usually to scream at it “what in the fuck are you doing OH MY GOD?!”

u.s. department of energy post on x praising coal: "She's an icon She's a legend And she is the moment [sparkly picture of coal]

struggling with an analogy here but imagine NASA posting a meme about how excited they are to return aviation to the pre-jet age

Vinay Prasad departs the FDA Vinay Prasad, a top FDA official, is out after less than 3 months on the job.

Vinay Prasad just got fired from the FDA because he was utterly unqualified and could not meet the moment. He can now go back to making his little YouTube videos chockablock with misinformation and continue to deceive the public that way.

This is great to see from CSA! Public comment period is open.

A powerful graph that shows the effectiveness of the HPV vaccine in preventing cancer and saving lives.

Not to self-promote but I was involved in the Can-PCC collective on the subcommittee about prevention of PCC and we recommended asymptomatic masking in almost all settings, even with the limited evidence that the “gold standard” RCTs provide: can-pcc.recmap.org/plrs?recomme...

Kelly, this sucks very badly. I totally understand orgs wanting to balance risks and harms but citing the propagandist Cochrane review as “unbiased” is actually deeply offensive.

Lmao

Returning to the office isn’t the answer to Canada’s productivity problem — and it will add pressure to urban housing Companies are betting on office mandates to fix sluggish productivity, but what workers need most are affordable homes, shorter commutes and real opportunities to grow, not added stress.

So are all the news outlets saying Zohran Mamdani is using coded antisemitic language and if you read between the lines you can tell how bad he is going to make a big deal about the worlds richest man making a chatbot that advocates for Hitler?

I don't think NYT should know peace until they divulge the full chain of decision making that led to the laundering of Nazi propaganda against a leading anti-fascist politician the same day fascism was codified in Congress.

trump's first post about mamdani is going to be levels of racism we haven't seen since the 19th century

Incredible turn out for #NoKingsDay. Thank you to everyone speaking up and taking action. Dissent is patriotic!

We feed you.
They hunt us.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.
