- @sanders.senate.gov and the minority staff on the Senate HELP Committee did not come to play in advance of RFK Jr.'s testimony before the committee tomorrow. RFK Jr. and his entire team are a disgrace. www.help.senate.gov/dem/newsroom...
- I hate RFK Jr. with a passion. He is a bad person. But please stop referring to his heroin use as having anything to do with his moral depravity. Addiction is not a moral failing, it is a public health and clinical issue.
- #RFKJr is committing #publichealthmalpractice. Now with alt text. #publichealth #medsky #episky #infectiousdiseases #science
- Looking for a scientifically rigorous, well-written book on COVID-19? Take a look at @joshuasweitz.bsky.social's "Asymptomatic." Such a tonic to the agit-prop and bad science of In COVID's Wake by Macedo and Lee (or as I call it, Dancing with COVID Contrarians). 1/ www.press.jhu.edu/books/title/...
- This piece from @britshmit.bsky.social is 🔥. Would all researchers, all of us, be as brave as she is. Our research is worth fighting for. And she is doing it. www.statnews.com/2025/05/12/r...
- Last year, Ben Mazer wrote this piece about the revenge of the Covid contrarians all now ensconced as leaders of public health, science & healthcare. but they’re a whole lot of fellow travelers among the liberal establishment who should take some of the blame. 1/ www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...
- These are the folks who complained about Covid mitigation measures, and downplayed the dangers of the pandemic from David Leonhardt at the NY Times to Leana Wen at the Washington Post. 2/
- They include the fans of Frances Lee and Steven Macedo’s book In COVID’s Wake, which is a full scale, revisionist history of the pandemic. 3/

- I’m in an #Uber from the airport. The cost? $133. The driver is getting $52. Uber are screwing their drivers big time. They manipulate fares and treat their drivers like crap. Spread the word. Tell your Uber horror story.

- I understand that: shafting the drivers by giving them 40% of the fare is the scandal.
