the number of House Rs willing to straight-out call their own Speaker a liar is... quite something

Is improving your diet an underappreciated way to improve your mental health? It certainly seems so: https://t.co/NbUQe7PZ0B

Both sides do it. On the left, various randos you've never heard of posted offensive things about Charlie Kirk. On the right, the president of the United States...

The ACA tax credit catastrophe revealed that after a decade-plus of the ACA, Republicans are no closer to having a serious, coherent plan for fixing the US health system and lowering costs: https://t.co/eI0It1D4LP

can't do math, are these plans seriously about to tie lol

Do we want a vaccine policy based on vibes? Because that's what we're getting: https://t.co/E6O3vtLWqT

OH at #ACIP: "There was a misinterpretation of the conclusions of my own study."

woo boy, listening to FDA's Tracy Beth Hoag explain *why* there is low trust in vaccine is... interesting is it because the current recommendations aren't science-based? or has there been a concentrated campaign to sow distrust in all kinds of expertise? truly, who is to say

follow @doritmi and @JATetro for more scientifically informed commentary than mine on the ACIP meeting

My goal as a journalist is to report carefully on the best, most practical social policy ideas that can change the world, and this is easily the most exciting one I’ve had the opportunity to cover this year. I hope you'll read it 🧵↓

maybe it's because my background is more conventional health policy, but it's always struck me as amusing that RFK Jr. and his allies appeal to those socialist Danes with their universal health care as a justification for changing the vaccine schedule

CDC staff taking a wrecking ball to the "well, Denmark doesn't recommend hep-B at birth" talking point also notes Canada is actually considering moving **to** a universal birth dose

very amusing to me that even the FDA liaison is like "yeah, there's not really a scientific basis for these new recommedations, but we have to change something, so sounds good"

The FDA simultaneously announcing it will start speed-running drug approvals while constructing higher standards for vaccine approvals... Hmm

I don't think these guys actually respect each other very much #ACIP

illegal immigrants catching flak at the ACIP meeting

gotta hand it to em, these past two ACIP meetings have been c i n e m a

how does the risk of horizontal transmission change if fewer newborns start getting the hepatitis-B vaccine, I wonder :) not everybody gets to stay home for three months

Overheard at ACIP: "We really need to know what we're voting on."

never mind, there it is!
