I recently started a new job and to my surprise in my new desk drawer I found these little cut out hearts. Feels like a nice welcome gift

You know where an excellent place for disease spread occurs? Airports. Our global economy guarantees the spread of highly infectious diseases through plane travel. And look at that- not 1 but 2 airports reporting measles exposures! 🤬🤦‍♀️ @kffhealthnews.org

Again, love @kffhealthnews.org and today they demonstrate just how widespread the measles outbreak is- Rhode Island is the latest State to report a case.

The police wanted to follow the trajectories of the bullets and they showed us how they went through our jackets and shredded them. 7/

This is the front of our home with the bullet holes marked in white. It’s a little hard to see but they are there. 6/

Beth S Linas, PhD, MHS @bethlinas.bsky.social · 25/07/2025

At this point I was shaking. I was angry, scared, and shocked to find my property so damaged. We awaited the police. When they arrived they did further inspection and found a total of 3 more bullet holes in our home 5/

Beth S Linas, PhD, MHS @bethlinas.bsky.social · 25/07/2025

The police were on their way. Now we started scouring our home and surroundings. My husband went to look at our cars- his car was hit at the door handle. Another bullet. 4/

Beth S Linas, PhD, MHS @bethlinas.bsky.social · 25/07/2025

This bullet was feet from our sofa. The sofa I was sitting on 20mins prior to the shooting. We called the police for their inspection. As we waited we looked more closely at our home. Suddenly we found another bullet hole in our door jam with the bullet right below. 2 bullets in our home 3/

The police arrived and scene inspected. I was thankful to be safe and sound and I somehow went to bed. The next morning my husband saw dust by our coat rack and looked more carefully and found a huge gash in our wall- a bullet came through our home and got lodged in the wall. 2/

What does the NIH do for you? (Spoiler, a lot) and what can you do for the NIH? (Call congress and tell them to get DOGE out of NIH research and restore funding!) @defendpublichealth.bsky.social

NSDUH data of course will be impacted if the office that oversees the survey is canned. This is a disgrace. And yes, my former country does the data collection but who knows what will happen to the data now. 🤦‍♀️

What a slap in the face. I was let go by RTI International 2 weeks ago & was told they were also in a hiring freeze. Today I get the email below. It’s interesting that there are suddenly jobs & even more interesting that jobs are for RECOVER, the Long COVID Study, that is likely getting cancelled.

Don’t under estimate the power of friendship. I got these gorgeous flowers from my oldest group of friends from high school and it really made my heart swell.

This is happening two blocks from my home. There are police on every corner. There is also a counterprotest with loud music and people yelling “Fyou fascists, Fyou fascists, Fyou fascists”.
