- Friends daughter turned five last week. They went to 3 pharmacies but none had pediatric COVID vax dose. Their pediatrician’s office only offers it at periodic clinics, the next of which is about a month away. Now she has COVID.
- Replying to @pw_cunninghamBut for a lot of people who is in the White House or making the laws does impact their personal lives in a very real way.
- Trump called for "massive" drug price declines. Azar asked for restraint... What we got: 104 price increases in June and the first two days of July, per Wells Fargo. That followed 48 increases in May.
- Opioid emergency declaration DOES NOT include new funding.
- screams into the abyss becuase people just don't get it!!! .@NateSilver538 please please please please please call some people who understand the FDA and vaccine review.Hey no rush, not like there's a deadly pandemic or anything
- Replying to @imillhiser and @AOCWhat about if we changed our elections process so all this fundraising wasn’t allowed or necessary to begin with? Seems like a terrible waste or resources.
- BREAKING: Trump's top health official traded TOBACCO stock once in office & while leading ANTI-SMOKING efforts w/@Briannaehley
- A friend texted me today because his wife’s boss is testifying in congress tomorrow on veteran suicide. I told him it would probably not get a lot of attention tomorrow given kavanaugh hearing and Rosentsein meeting. He said: someone should cover other important things too.
- CDC Director looks like she is close to breaking into tears on White House COVID-19 press conferene right now as she issues warnings to Americans about COVID-19 cases, deaths rising.
- Kennedy’s explanation of the hold up on Novavax’s covid vax approval neither scientifically accurate or legally aligned with FDA’s legal authority, experts say.
- Wondering about the journalism ethics of speculating about a public official’s medications and also commenting on weight in general.Is DeSantis on Ozempic? He's lost a dramatic amount of weight since his inauguration two months ago puck.news/author/tara-pa…
- CDC is offically going to recommend double-masking (cloth over a "procedure" surgical mask or disposable mask) or taking steps to adjust mask fit so they are tighter.
- Replying to @feliciasonmezseems indicative of the problem that other media outlets are focusing more on covering your reaction to sexism than the inital sexism that sparked the situation.
