RFK Jr outlines expansive vision for collecting US health data at Maha event
Health secretary calls for medical and lifestyle details to be sent to doctors and AI to address ‘chronic disease epidemic’

At an event held by the MAHA Institute, RFK Jr said he wanted the federal government to feed Americans' private health data to AI to find evidence to support his anti-science ideology. He also said AI can make “better-informed” decisions than doctors, despite AI’s reputation for hallucinations.

People have asked why we aren't involved with Neil deGrasse Tyson...this is why. @standupforscience.net does not endorse candidates with accusations of sexual misconduct and we do not collaborate with people who have accusations of sexual misconduct. PERIOD. Welcome to the matriarchy.

Not enough people take seriously "funding delays"/"bureaucratic nonsense can kill people" but here it is right here. If I was mad when a patient died because it took a few extra months for lawyers to try to look for a legal basis for an international data transfer, I'm incandescent, now.

NIH funding cuts delayed a promising childhood brain cancer trial. Patients lost time they didn't have
A delayed clinical trial underscores the stakes of federal research funding cuts for children with DIPG, a deadly brain tumor with few treatment options.

As always, excellent reporting by @melodyschreiber.com. I have *so much* to say about all this. But let me say this: I've worked with medical record data for research and LMAO, LMFAO even...this is why we need qualified scientists in charge of our scientific institutions.

The goal is chaos and the disenfranchising of experts. The harassment of Dr. Fauci is a great example of this.

Trump's cuts to science have risked countless lives. NIH cuts canceled two clinical trials for children's brain cancer, and delayed many more that could have saved those in need. Trump's policies kill people.

IF WE WANT TO SEE RADICAL CHANGE (I’m talking healthcare for all, big science budgets, decarbonization, etc) WE MUST MAKE IT HAPPEN OURSELVES. LOOK IN THE MIRROR, SAY HELLO TO THE PERSON WHO IS GOING TO BRING FORWARD CHANGE, AND GO OUT INTO THE WORLD ACCORDINGLY. You are the change you want to see.

I’m not trying to overthrow the establishment. I actually don’t care about them, because I’m REALLY busy trying to run @standupforscience.net. But, these other orgs aren’t going to drive the change we desperately want to see. They are going to play their inside ball without you.

3. WE (you and I and all our colleagues) have an ENORMOUS amount of power. People power works, especially in moments where radical change is needed. This is our hope. If it didn’t work, all these established parties wouldn’t been working to hard to overwhelm and stop us! WE CAN SEE CHANGE.

2. I’m not calling them the enemy, I’ve seen people change their perspectives and we have real bad guys to fight. BUT!!!! These people discredit ✨ activists✨ and advise us to stay in our lanes because they view change as threatening. It’s not ok and it harms us all. Here’s where I bring in the fun

I need everyone to understand a few things: 1. People in positions of power at ✨establishment✨scientific institutions are HEAVILY incentivized to maintain the status quo of the scientific ecosystem…even though it doesn’t benefit us, the public, or innovation. Sorry! It’s the truth.

I didn’t come into this whole activist thing as “anti-establishment”…I was driven by @timothysnyder.bsky.social’s whole bit on protecting institutions and I read that to apply to ✨established✨ institutions…but damn. These people are deeply unserious and I’m not fighting for their status quo.
