Jay Bhattacharya: Why the NIH is pivoting away from mRNA vaccines

"As a vaccine for broad public use, mRNA technology has failed to earn the public’s trust."

Florida GOP Rep Anna Paulina Luna is all over Russian state TV attacking Ukraine. I’m not saying she’s a Putin asset, but I’m not not saying that.

Václav Havel Today: with Marci Shore and Paul Wilson

For those in Toronto, I'll be in dialogue with Václav Havel's remarkable translator Paul Wilson this Thursday evening. We'll revisit Havel's greengrocer and talk about what he means today.

At 8:31 pm Friday, the US Treasury prolonged Russia's exemption from US oil sanctions for another month. Two days earlier Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent had promised that this would not be done.
This is sufficient proof that Trump works for Putin.

Les hospitalisations évitables par la vaccination ont plus que doublé au Canada Le taux d’hospitalisations pour des maladies respiratoires pouvant être évitées grâce à la vaccination a plus que doublé par rapport aux niveaux prépandémie.

Don’t believe headlines saying that vaccine skepticism is widespread Despite some headlines, a new poll does not show that most Americans no longer trust vaccines.

Such an important piece from @drhigginsmd.bsky.social. I had similar conclusions when I looked at the Politico poll in question, but Dr. Higgins expressed it more eloquently than I ever could.

Don't let our reality become background noise or a "show" you've grown tired of. Please help us amplify the truth. Every life taken was important and irreplaceable. These are not just statistics; they are unspeakable crimes.

Zelensky just out with a long comment after the latest Ramstein meeting. Optimistic and gives thanks to many partners. Not a single mention of the US helping Ukraine.

The Ukrainians are not hiding the fact that the US is no longer their friend.
