Great work Adam & the Rakai team! 👏 Proof that international HIV initiatives work. We can't let proposed US budget cuts reverse this massive progress for young women. We must keep fighting for these life-saving programs! 🌍✨ @johnshopkinssph.bsky.social @sph.cuny.edu

Good news, for once, in a long fight to preserve #HIVfunding! The FY2026 Conference bill - aka the final negotiated bill that passed both chambers and was signed into law - preserves the majority of HIV prevention & treatment funding, ignoring the cuts that the President and the House proposed.

Today is World AIDS Day. “An awareness day is not a strategy” is the US government's rationale for not publicly acknowledging World AIDS Day for the first time since the inaugural WAD in 1988. #WAD2025

🐦#CUNYSPH Assistant Prof. Kim Garrett was quoted in Newsweek - News, Analysis, Politics, Business, Technology on new research finding PFAS in birds near U.S. military bases: Detection of PFAS in birds “can serve as indicators for other species, including humans.” 🔗cunysph.me/4oEc2yp

Birds near US military bases have higher levels of PFAS, study finds.
One expert told Newsweek that while the findings are "not surprising," the scope and scale of these chemicals is "concerning."

RFK Jr. said multiple times during his house and senate hearings today that no scientists have been fired from federal agencies. Our reporting has shown that hundreds, if not thousands, of scientists have been let go from NIH/CDC/FDA
