It's time to take immediate action to halt RFK Jr.’s malicious and harmful study, which will intentionally withhold life-saving Hepatitis B vaccine from thousands of newborns in Guinea-Bissau.

This exactly what a quasi-exp design is for. Recruit on the basis of their parents natural decision rather than an RCT (WITH A SUBSTANCE YOU THINK IS TOXIC). There is no need to get that last bump of validity with a true experiment vs. well controlled quasi. There is no way for this to be ethical.

Workers rights and democracy go hand and hand. Erosion of one is erosion of the other. THIS is why labor unions are so, so, so, so, so critically important.

“This went beyond stripping workplace protections. It violated workers’ First Amendment rights by targeting employees who exercised protected speech & spoke out on matters of public concern. It also sent a message: Speak out against political interference & you could pay for it with your career.”

The fight for EPA workers’ rights is a fight for the American public
Federal employees do not work for a president, a political party or an ideology — we work for America.

I said this in a thread last night and in a thousand threads before it, but you really are doing the work of those who would destroy democracy and the rule of law when you are a doomer. You can be aware of — and vigorously oppose — the lawlessness of this administration without insisting on doom.

Because I'm a nerd, I often think about how King Edward VI got infected with the measles which wiped out his immune system. He immediately caught smallpox and both infections helped activate a latent case of tuberculosis. He died of TB a year later. The boy king could have used an MMR vaccine.

We had this post on Instagram get flooded with suspected bots late last week…funny enough, engagement dropped to near silence for 48 hours after Ukraine bombed the data centers. Probably not a way to confirm anything, but it’s ramping back up again. Remember, you may be arguing with a Russian bot.
