I’m an NIH whistleblower. The scientific community cannot afford to avoid politics “Scientists are often encouraged to avoid politics. But this advice is outdated, if it was ever correct in the first place,” writes Jenna Norton, NIH whistleblower.

A heads down approach will not save science. We need to speak up, live our values, and demand integrity.

Boy, 7, dies of brain condition caused by world’s most contagious disease — years after he had it as a baby Even those who make a full recovery from the initial infection face a lurking threat: a deadly disease that remains latent until striking — and killing — years later.

California boy dies of SSPE (measles complication) after being infected at age 7 months, when he was too young to be vaccinated.

I can go on and to actually give credit to someone who is daily causing unnecessary deaths from preventable infectious diseases from being a vaccine denier is reason he needs to be removed.

Meanwhile nutrition needs to be handled by dietitians who need to be paid for more diagnoses and we need more of them and have them embedded into clinics.

I’m a medical student. RFK Jr. is right about medical school and preventive care In medical school, a student writes, she has learned to react first, focus on prevention later.

As unable to access the article will speculate- prevention is on an individual level but also the eternal needed health policy changes aren’t going to happen.

Tired of unqualified hacks running the U.S. public health system? I sure am.

Sometimes it feels like there is nothing we can do to fight this.

But right now, we can write letters to our Senators to oppose Casey Means as Surgeon General to prevent yet another quack from gaining power.

Cell-free DNA fragmentomes for noninvasive detection of liver cirrhosis and other diseases Genome-wide cfDNA fragmentomes are altered in liver disease and other morbidities and enable noninvasive detection of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis.

We've used a blood test—cell free DNA—for detecting cancer or prenatal fetal abnormalities. It turns out it can be used to detect liver diseases and all-cause mortality from other conditions!
