All of us, regardless of our politics should condemn a leader, any leader, who traffics in this kind of content, who is so blatantly racist, who is so bluntly unkind. This shocks me and it should shock us all.

Liaison members are being dismissed from ACIP work groups. That means two things. A huge loss of clinical expertise. And no brakes on fulfilling the new committee’s goal to take away vaccines from kids and adults.

The 17 fired members of ACIP, including me, have written an article in JAMA about our experience and our concerns. jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/…

I feel sick. "Officials halted midstream a training workshop..., called off a workshop on adolescent learning... and canceled meetings of 2 advisory councils. Panels scheduled to review grant proposals also received...word that they wouldn’t be meeting." science.org/content/articl…

Joe Biden is a good man. He is a decent man. He is a kind and loving man. I am going to miss him terribly. 🥺

Amazing trip to Guatemala this month on behalf of Project PrecCaMM (Prevention of Cervical Cancer among Mayan Women). Held a community advisory board meeting & did interviews with public health officials, promotoras, & researchers/advocates in San Lucas Toliman & Guatemala City.
