gone fishing for humanity & decency @cdmitpih.bsky.social.

Chris’s #pmc2025 launched in support of cancer care provided by @PIH to those most in need. Donate to Chris’s ride for #ekiponkoloji @PanMass at https://t.co/yzjHOwnZEe.

Crochet has a point: https://t.co/aLQ3Fr4VbO. Worth noting that @WEEI ‘s own @WillFlemming was also mired in negativity about the @RedSox (& Crochet) during bottom of 1st & top of 2nd last night. Broadcast was unbearable AGAIN so I turned it off & missed the comeback.

My hubby, Chris Johnson is among the Brookline riders in #PMC2025 featured in this @brooklinenews ( https://t.co/aC72BN5ToM). He is riding again for @PIH’s Ekip Onkoloji team. Read more about Chris’s motivation & donate at:

Today we are in Rwinkwavu as PIH_Rwanda marks 20 years of delivering Health care . Follow us live on

Thx @LancetRespirMed for rapid pub of endTB-Q & podcast. Resistant TB is more likely w/US withdrawal from global health. Trial results affirm dangers of one-size-fits-all approaches in TB & all infectious diseases. 🎧: https://t.co/5bygPBM4Ft 🔗 article:

For constituents who want senators to be fully informed &/or are opposed to eliminating lifesaving programs such as PEPFAR & TB treatment, let your senators know TODAY using this simple tool https://t.co/masYcVehNR.

Bringing IRS into xenophobic fold is another bone-headed USG move. It guarantees immigrants will contribute less to our shrinking tax base. While corporations get massive tax breaks, fewer U.S. residents will foot the bill for dwindling services & massive military spending.

The spokeswoman for China’s ministry of foreign affairs just posted this:

Thx, @SpotlightNSP , for explaining the global impact of 1️⃣example of USG’s pettiness & short-sightedness. Every advance in TB & HIV care relies on research in S. Africa. Cutting foreign aid funds kills people today. Cutting research funds kills people for generations.

Every single innovation in TB treatment, diagnosis, prevention over the last few decades has relied on research in S. Africa. If your neighbor in KS, TX, WY, etc gets TB, you are at risk bcuz of this latest petty move. It makes America less, not #MoreSecure

On Tuesday, prominent author and personality John Green published his new nonfiction book "Everything Is Tuberculosis." Carole Mitnick, professor of global health and social medicine, calls the disease the "quintessential marker of inequity." #Harvard https://t.co/XXd80SItgN

Wait, what? Republican leadership advises not meeting w/constituents to avoid embarrassment? Better advice to achieve the desired outcome: don’t abdicate responsibility for governing in their constituents best interest & don’t capitulate to a bully!

USAID’s “tagline was “From the American people,” and perhaps the American people didn’t understand that it was also for them.” This will be a fatal misunderstanding.

Illegal impoundment, looking for retroactive justification that doesn’t exist, is still illegal impoundment. Requests to NOT SPEND appropriated funds must go to Congress. Exclusive: Inside USAID's postmortem program review https://t.co/K5ZwZ5m7Tm #Devex via @Devex

Thanks to those dedicated to protecting the US & the world from the deadliest infectious disease, TB. W/the destruction sowed by the White House, we will need many more such champions. Support them to do their work.

In others, TB lurks for decades & lunges later to kill its unsuspecting hosts. Nearly all research done to prevent, treat, & diagnose TB in the last 20 years has been conducted in S. Africa. These advances are also threatened today.

like food, housing, safety, education, & fruits of scientific advancement. Reversals in all these services are also assured by the broligarchy, blazing new deadly paths for the “perfect predator” now & later. In some, TB bacteria attack & kill immediately after infection. 🧵2/3

In @TheAtlantic https://t.co/MO8I1yfWfH John Green lays bare how decimation of foreign aid assures us of a world w/more TB. It assures us of more “stupid deaths”, deaths per @PIH ’s late Paul Farmer that can be averted w/equity in access to medical care & basic rights:🧵1/3

“”But for a Republican senator to say they are so worried that they’re going to betray their oath of office is such cowardice. Why are you in office?”” https://t.co/taT7Ld13uA via @NYTimes

Grateful to the @RWJF for seeing the value, importance, and timeliness of my book, The Black Angels, right now and in the coming years. #Nursing #endtb #nonfiction @paimadhu @DrIanWeissman @NftwtAgainstTB @GlobalTB @cdmitpih @FastTrackTBCure @RanaAwdish @gbosslet
