The amount of pro misinformation, pro musk, anti intellectual AI fueled garbage accounts being forced onto my Facebook timeline has increased dramatically. This must be coordinated. How hard is it to just let us see the people we like. It's astounding how intent they are to destroy their product

Make a huge mistake. Then make a false claim about how you fixed it. They did it for PEPFAR. Now Ebola. I follow this particular topic VERY closely, so here's what really happened and why this isn't true AT ALL...🧵

Actually, a measles outbreak IS an unusual occurrence. Especially in a country like the US, which had eliminated the disease thanks to vaccination until recently. It's so unusual that most physicians in the U.S. have NEVER seen a case! www.nbcnews.com/now/video/-i...

I take care of children who DIE of conditions that we can’t prevent and that despite our very best efforts we cannot cure. The fact that CHILDREN DIE of diseases that can be completely eradicated with safe and effective vaccines makes me LIVID.

Hey, guess what has suddenly disappeared from the HHS website? Any mention of this $306M investment in pandemic flu preparedness that was approved in the last days of the Biden administration. Not DEI. Not USAID. Our surveillance & response program around H5N1.

I don’t have a definitive source on this yet but it looks like NSF review panels have been canceled. Sixty-some years ago, Eisenhower transformed higher education because he viewed a science education gap as the single greatest threat to national security. This is absolutely an act of sabotage.
