1/n Being about the role of Vitamin A and its role in the treatment and prevention of measles. It’s actually an interesting story, but unfortunately one that is being twisted and weaponized by the wellness/influencer $multibillion to push vitamin A like they did for ivermectin

"Milan Kundera said the struggle of man against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting," says @mariaressa. "Social media is not about one post alone. It's not about content. It's about saying a lie a million times and making it a fact." bit.ly/3OXf8x4

As I write in my articles finding a partial overlap between antiscience and antisemitism (attached), we’re entering a new phase of targeting Jewish scientists, especially Jewish vaccine scientists…

Whooping cough cases up 5x this year 100,000 global measles deaths - mostly in kids H5N1 steamrolling towards pandemic status. Egg prices skyrocketing. The new administration had better have a strong infectious disease response plan- and had better ensure public health and vaccine confidence stays high. Or they’ll be distracted with outbreaks for 4 years this time instead of 1. 🤷🏽‍♂️

As with Musk doing foreign policy and everything else, this is the privatization of public power, which is always followed by the privatization of public money into the same hands. We saw this in Russia and it's how to replace a democracy with oligarchy.

Absolutely right @jenkatesdc. I’d add that states still have power to give, even mandate, vaccines including school vaccinations. We could see major fragmentation across America, further dividing red and blue states

Have you ever watched a baby die of pertussis? I have. Several. This is what it looks like: A newborn baby can’t stop coughing. They can’t catch their breath and they can’t eat. They get dehydrated and stop peeing. They sometimes have pauses in their breathing. Parents are terrified so they come to the ER. In the ER, labs show they have a dangerously high white blood cell count. Their blood has become thick from the white blood cells and doesn’t travel through organs like it should. Less oxygen gets delivered to vital organs. They start to seize. Imaging reveals they had a stroke. They can’t pump blood to their lungs and body. A breathing tube gets placed in their trachea. They get put on a ventilator. A plastic catheter is placed in their veins and arteries to give them medicine and measure blood pressure. If they are lucky, they can make it to a #PedsICU that provides #ECMO, or full heart lung bypass. They are attached to machines that take over all their body functions. But it’s too late. Their hands and feet turn black because they can’t perfuse their bodies. Their faces turn grey/green. They won’t stop seizing from the brain injury. They are attached to too many machines to hold while alive and parents lay their bodies on top of them and cry until they fall asleep then cry again. There is nothing to do but stop the machines. Antibiotics to treat pertussis were given but were no match for the infections effects on a newborn baby. Parents finally hold their baby after the machines have turned off and their baby is cold and lifeless. Is this what you want? This is what RFK Jr will bring to American families.

For your baby, laughter conveys much more than just “I find this funny.” 😂🤣😂 Long before babies can speak conventionally, they begin laughing - making it one of humankind’s earliest and most important forms of communication. And according to Caspar Addyman - a British researcher who specializes in baby laughter (and whose job I will now envy until the end of time), laughter is not only a signal that your baby is feeling relaxed and comfortable - but also that they are finding real pleasure in the company of others. In fact, Addyman’s research suggests that - exposed to the same stimuli - babies are up to eight times more likely to laugh in the presence of another child or trusted adult. That’s because laughter is fundamentally social. Think of it as your baby’s way of saying, “I’m enjoying our connection.” This giggly little one was shared to TT by gemandroe.

Social media platforms must be held responsible for what is posted online. We need to treat social media firms like Big Tobacco and regulate them strictly - @mariaressa

@mariaressa amazing fierce clever warrior for protecting truth and democracy #URWF24 follow her and support her.

THIS is Elon Musk’s brother, Kimbal Musk. Kimbal went off script a little bit - and admitted that he and Elon were illegal immigrants. Elon, realizing what just happened, tried to joke “it’s a grey area”, then laughed. I’ll submit: more of a white area.

Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do.... From @TimothyDSnyder "On Tyranny"

Many experts have researched the impact of limited transportation access upon health outcomes. @DocRob64, leader of the Michael Fisher Child Health Equity Center @CincyChildrens, and co-creators from multiple organizations are doing more than studies. wvxu.org/show/cincinnat…
