Congratulations!
It’s really f*cking bleak as a physician in the US watching HIV deniers and green coffee grifters being given positions of power, while GOP politicians and tech-bros who know nothing about medicine call for Dr Fauci to be prosecuted. Bleak.
Dear Antivaxers,
I promise you that you don’t need to figure out on your own why disease happens and how to prevent or treat it. We already thought to look into that, but thanks for your input! We’ll take it from here!
Sincerely,
Hundreds of years of modern medical science
Happy Monday!
Would you let RFK Jr. operate on one of your loved ones? Of course not, because he is a lawyer, not a surgeon. He is not qualified. Similarly, a conspiracy theorist vaccine-denier is not qualified for the secretary of health. This appointment is dangerous and will cost MANY lives. #publichealth
Measles requires 95% vaccination rates for herd immunity.
It has a 16.2% case fatality rate for unvaccinated children under 5 years and 24% for children under 9 months (who are unable to be vaccinated).
30% of the survivors experience severe complications like blindness, deafness, or encephalitis.
Fellow healthcare providers, please consider using your voice to reject the appointment of dangerous, non-scientific and anti-vaccine Kennedy to secretary of health. Our country deserves scientific, evidence-based public health policy! Share widely!

Getting long acting contraception such as an IUD now is a good idea for some people. IUDs protect against pregnancy for 3, 8, or 10 years and can be removed at anytime.

Draft letter oppose RFK Jr. appointment
Use you personal email no your work email. Sharing a draft example courtesy of a colleague. You can modify it to suit your needs. This is a time for action not silence and more that ever those who care about science and public health will need to be brave and vocal advocates because it matters.
How can we change what we’re seeing? Mine feed seems to be full cats and anime art…
Kennedy doesn’t seem to understand science. I’d argue this pick is the most concerning.
