Retired Pedi— to protect at risk family members from covid-19. Covid is Airborne. Long Covid is real. Carpe diem!
Supposedly, there’s reports that Trump’s new Air Force One Boeing 747 (gifted from Qatar to DoD, then to Trump’s Library later) retrofit might cost taxpayers $934 million… and Trump is diverting it from its nuclear missile defense program. nytimes.com/2025/07/27/us/…
Sam Altman just confirmed what lawyers have been saying for over a year: There’s no legal privilege when you use ChatGPT. So if you’re pasting in contracts, asking legal questions, or asking it for strategy, you’re not getting legal advice. You’re generating discoverable…
It's insane that people who make tens of millions a year (even billions!) pay the same amount into Social Security as someone who makes $176,000. Our country could easily keep its promises and fund Social Security for generations if we unrigged the system and fixed this.
The shady circumstances of the $8 billion Paramount/Skydance merger have let every other billionaire & company know that Trump is open for business—apparently happy to accept offers for favors. I’m calling for an urgent, independent investigation into this potential corruption.
SARS-CoV-2 transmission on international flights. The large absolute number of secondary cases observed during the study period indicate this may be an important route of transmission. #COVIDisAirborne airspothealth.myshopify.com/a/blog/sars-co…

Trump will spend his weekend promoting a new golf course at his resort in Scotland – costing taxpayers an estimated $10M. After this jaunt, he will have spent at least $52M of taxpayer money on golf trips. If that’s not fraud, waste, and abuse, I don’t know what is.

A daily reminder that Medicare for All would save $650 billion and 68,000 lives each and every year, according to the Republican CBO Director and the Yale University School of Public Health.
Americans now spend more on health care than groceries or housing, with health care accounting for approximately 20% of household expenditures, according to the New York Times.

RETWEET if you support Jerome Powell.
The Big Beautiful Bill gives Meta a $15 billion check. That’s more than our federal government spends on child care in an entire year. If we invested that much in child care & early childhood education, we’d create stronger futures for everyone, not just Mark Zuckerberg.

12/ It's time for universities to prioritize student health over "business as usual." Protect your students. Prevent #LongCOVID. It’s the only way forward. #HigherEd #PublicHealth #StudentWellbeing
10/ Clean air must become as natural and accessible as clean water in all educational settings. This is a fundamental right. Universities, here’s how you can do better: Re-establish robust #COVID19 testing & wastewater surveillance. #CleanAir
1/ Universities, schools and daycares are failing their students on #LongCOVID. It's time they step up, protect students, and reduce #COVID19 cases. The situation at Stanford is a harsh example. 🧵 #UniversitiesFailStudents #LongCOVIDAction
‼️New study alert for ME/CFS patients!
📢#MECFS research of potential treatment (Hydrogen Water): Volunteers needed. New study of OTC supplement for chronic fatigue symptoms. Home-based. Participants paid up to $100. For more information, study coordinator: [email protected] #MEAwarenessHour
The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
