If you believe everyone should have access to the COVID vaccine, you can find the link to provide public comment to the FDA here. There's only two days left. peoplescdc.substack.com/p/vaccine-ac...

Vaccine Access is Under Attack. Act now to tell the FDA we need universal COVID vaccine access
Public comment at the FDA is open until May 23. The Wall Street Journal reported HHS plans to remove some vaccine recommendations

The @standupforscience.bsky.social DC rally is on. What we are hearing from around the country: "this is big!" "biggest rally I have seen around here in years and years" The public cares about medical research--and students, GenZ, and other people too are ready to stand up.

+1e9 This isn’t just about NIH or NSF, it’s not about biology vs math/physics vs health outcomes research, not about intramural or extramural. This is a coordinated attack on ALL US science. The gov’t / academia partnership IS what makes US science. They’re trying to end all science research.

"officials at the Dept. of HHS... have pressed staff at the agency to ignore court orders, according to nearly a dozen former and current NIH officials I spoke with. Even advice from NIH lawyers to resume business as usual was dismissed by the agency’s acting director, those officials said."

Administration officials pressured the NIH to avoid clear advice from the agency’s own lawyers to restart grant funding now.

Very nice short piece about how siloed research is insufficient (and inappropriate!) to solve the problems that need solving. We need more transdisciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches, and more thinking about the 'so what' rather than just the 'why' or 'what'. 🧪

Let's talk #epidemiology and #flu. H5N1 aka bird flu is a type of flu A. It's in birds (duh), cattle, cats & now rats. Smattering of human cases that we know of... But confidence its Worst flu season since 2009? Many testing pos for flu A. Anyone going to connect the dots?
