I have never seen such a level of incompetence on display in the first 15 minutes of this ACIP day 2 meeting. It’s mind boggling how dumb these people are. They literally do not understand anything they are talking about. This is gonna piss me off. I don’t know how I’m going to make it through

In case you were wondering, yes, the Trump administration and Elon Musk were accused of interference in the lead up phase to the final election. Russia, Trump, Musk, extremists on one side, Europe, NATO, moderates, and stable democracy on the other. www.euractiv.com/section/poli...

The minister's reaction comes after Bloomberg reported that the Trump administration was pressuring Romania to accept Georgescu's candidacy.

To clarify, all my images are how they are seen in the microscope; there is no manipulation. The color selection is arbitrary, but that's about it. They are also all acquired in 3D, and properly analyzed and quantified for data extraction. I use a Zeiss LSM800 microscope and Imaris Software.

Prasad already gave up the game. Jay's gonna direct taxpayer money to his crank friends to write worthless op-eds rallying against disease mitigations masquerading as official NIH scientific papers

Prasad's substack: "Jay Bhattacharya will create a portfolio of funding to investigate the harms of lockdowns, school closures, vaccine mandates, and other unproven draconian COVID19 measures. This will create a lasting body of scholarship which will deter future public health tyrants. I myself have worked in this space, now having authored more than 25 COVID19 papers."

Getting #measles doesn’t confer benefits on the immune system — in fact, it’s just the opposite. Even a mild case of measles destroys the memory cells that confer resistance to infections the patient has previously fought--called immune amnesia. www.latimes.com/science/stor...
