  Much of the commentary about #AbdulElSayed has neglected the fact that he's an epidemiologist. At a time when the governing party has declared war on #PublicHealth, a senator like El Sayed could be huge.

  An emergency medicine doc has a few words for #RFKJr: "Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told CNN’s Dana Bash that 'There were ICUs that were empty all across the country, including in New York, at the height.' "What a patently false, disgusting statement. It’s actually offensive, given the hell on Earth that my New York colleagues in particular endured in late March and April of 2020." https://insidemedicine.substack.com/p/one-graph-to-shut-rfk-jr-up #ImpeachRFKJr

  "Reddit users found that by using a specific #Google search query, it was possible to find #Claude conversations that users had shared. "This exposed sensitive material, including crypto wallet keys, names, addresses, work notes, and even erotic or otherwise policy-violating chats. Fortune says Anthropic appears to have fixed the Google indexing issue, but the shared links themselves were still live for people who already had them." https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/privacy/202...

  "Months after congressional #Republicans refused to extend enhanced subsidies for Americans who receive their health insurance through the Affordable Care Act, hospitals across the US are seeing a surge in uninsured patients seeking emergency medical care." This is classic Republican false economy. The #EmergencyDepartment is the most expensive way to deliver care --and patients suffer needlessly from delaying care. https://www.commondreams.org/news/uninsured-emergency-room-surge #Hea...

  ⚠️ "The next foodborne illness outbreak could be much worse. "That's the concern of #FoodSafety leaders across the U.S. who are raising alarms over federal cuts they say have made it harder to detect and stop the spread of foodborne illnesses, such as the recent outbreaks of #Cyclospora, which has sickened thousands in dozens of states. And they're especially worried the next pathogen will be much more deadly." https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/publichealth/...

  They're laughing at us. "The #TrumpAdministration has approved what’s believed to be the first #DataCenter on BLM-managed public land by transferring an environmental review completed for an entirely different project. The agency didn’t conduct a new review or invite public comment on the switch."

  If you've never heard of #cyclospora before, remember: "The #TrumpAdministration initiated major cuts to #PublicHealth in 2025. Pandemic-era grants to state and local health departments were cut by $11.4bn, hampering their ability to respond to outbreaks. The #CDC lost between 25-30% of staff. Within the CDC, a specialized parasitic disease team was downsized from 11 people to just three. In part, that’s because the group was partially funded by USAID, which was also decimated by cuts....

  "A new study suggests that Black patients with acute #COVID19 infection are less likely to be diagnosed as having #LongCOVID than White patients, despite no significant difference in long-COVID symptom burden between the two groups."

  "If the child has a fever or trouble breathing, and they’re unvaccinated, I have to be way more aggressive from a medical standpoint, because they are at higher risk of having life-threatening illnesses.
