U.S. Veteran in Kentucky says his Irish-born wife has been jailed there with intent to deport over a $25 bad check she wrote 10 years ago as a single mom. She paid it back, but U.S. is calling it a crime of "moral turpitude." She has been in this country for 47 years and has

Unbelievable to watch the FL Surgeon General on CNN right now saying he won't require vaccines for school age children because the govt' should not be allowed to tell you what to do with your body. Abortion anyone?

NEW: RFK Jr. says anyone who wants a covid shot can get one. Nope. Confusion at pharmacies and doctors’ offices as they scramble to adjust. Some people are crossing state lines to get a shot. ⁦@DavidOvalle305⁩ ⁦@pw_cunningham⁩

Florida Surgeon General Dr Joseph Ladapo tells ⁦@jaketapper⁩ that the pertussis vaccine doesn’t work. That’s incorrect. The DTaP vaccine is 98% effective at preventing infection at 1 year and 71% effective at 5 years.

Christie: I really don’t want to hear about Cassidy because he is a coconspirator with the President for putting this wholly unqualified man in charge.. Without Cassidy’s vote, RFK JR, would not be in

I’m all for increasing opportunities for better nutrition… but that’s not mutually exclusive with promoting vaccines. Beef tallow fries and dye-free Fruit Loops don’t prevent polio. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Free idea: a college football RedZone should have a Hater's Function. You plug in a list of teams you hate, and you can get notified if those teams are having a real bad time.

The housing market is taking the brunt of Jerome Powell's inaction. @NEWSMAX

Some older Americans on Medicare are facing an unexpected problem: the updated Covid shots — approved last month by the FDA for all adults 65 and up — aren’t being covered, forcing them to decide whether to pay out of pocket.

@jrovner @AliceOllstein @jessiehellmann @SarahKarlin Also this week, @jrovner interviews @tonyleys, who discusses his #BilloftheMonth report about a woman’s unfortunate interaction with a bat — and her even more unfortunate interaction with the bill for her rabies prevention treatment.

Since no CDC #influenza experts briefed Secretary Kennedy on bird flu, EVER, maybe this MMWR will help him understand the “gold standard” science that dedicated local and federal public health EXPERTS do in an emergency. Thank you @CDCFlu! Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza

It's a tough time for DC restaurants. Employees are scared to go to work after seeing colleagues taken away even when they have legal status. Customers, including suburbanites and tourists, are staying away. Delivery drivers have vacated the streets. Owners are looking elsewhere.

Tune in for another health-packed episode of #WTHealth! Host @jrovner is joined by panelists @AliceOllstein, @jessiehellmann, and @SarahKarlin to discuss this year's covid booster approval, CDC firings, ACA tax subsidies, and more health news.

We're back! latest #WTHealth podcast, with @AliceOllstein, @SarahKarlin, and @jessiehellmann now up!

A 🧵 on what's to come in the D.C. takeover: Next week is a big one – it's the 30-day deadline of Trump's partial commandeering of MPD, and the House will consider more than a dozen bills targeting the city, including one to toss out the city's elected attorney general.
