Pediatricians do not profit off vaccines. In fact, most pediatricians either break even or even lose money when they offer vaccines. Misleading parents about doctors' motivations puts children's health at risk and sows distrust in lifesaving vaccinations. nyti.ms/4lwVbM4

Kennedy Claims Doctors Profit Off Vaccines. In Fact, Many Lose Money on Them.

Experts said the health secretary’s remarks send a dangerous message: Don’t trust your physician.

Sometimes you just need to stand up and say something. hub.jhu.edu/2025/02/13/karen… via @HubJHU

NIH funds research that leads directly to cancer treatments, clinical trials

Cancer researcher Karen Sfanos says she is 'terrified' of the impact of cuts to NIH funding that supports vital biomedical research across the U.S.

I’m a pediatrician. When parents attack me for suggesting vaccines, I fume at RFK Jr.

The flames of vaccine hesitancy have been stoked to a bonfire by fictitious stories by self-serving people like the nominee to run the Department of Health and Human Services.

Dr @LotanLab at @GU_Path_Society session... Great teaching point.. if not sure about about small cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer it's probably worth a trial of hormone therapy due to low toxicity before embarking on small cell therapy #USCAP2023

I have reviewed several multi-omics manuscripts with extensive genetic and functional characterization of human tumors and cell lines, submitted to decent and high quality journals. In almost all of them, basic pathology parameters are missing. Why? (A mini-thread:)
