My latest story: The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations. The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary RFK Jr. www.propublica.org/article/meas...

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations

The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.

NEW: Two weeks ago gov't IT experts warned us that the worst case scenario would be if DOGE got full admin access to agency systems. We can report at at least one agency DOGE has unfettered "god mode" access. Our latest: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

DOGE Has ‘God Mode’ Access to Government Data

The president’s special commission now has an unprecedented ability to view and manipulate information at many federal agencies.

Each person with measles spreads it to up to 18 other people. For comparison, the R0 (measure of spread) for Covid is 1-2. One of 10 kids who gets measles has an ear infection that may result in permanent hearing loss. Up to 30 per 10,000 die of complications.

Graphic showing out of 10,000 measles infections:

1,000 ear infections with potential for permanent hearing loss
2,000 hospitalizations
500 pneumonias
10 cases of encephalitis
10-30 deaths

Per 10,000 measles vaccinations:

3 cases of seizures
0.4 cases of blood clots
0.035 allergic reactions

Chris and I are making 1-2 phone calls a day. This morning I called my Congresscritter to ask him to defend the Department of Education against HR 899 and the efforts of the executive branch. I cited my fear that I will not be able to make ends meet if my income-based repayment plan goes away.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

hi, have you spent today doomscrolling? Are you slouching right now? Have you eaten something high-protein today? There's a lot to be worried about right now, but you still deserve moments of joy and time to rest. Try to focus on things in your control. And charge your phone away from your bedroom.

This is also why I am so optimistic despite all of the extremely terrible shit that is going on. There’s so much up for grabs right now and the rebuilding is a choice we are making in this moment. I think we can win it. We just have to try.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I have been looking for a group that is using methods today similar to those described in SOF's letter in this post. I think it's much more effective). Does anyone know of such a group active today? Details in the thread.
