Any Harvard graduate student who participated in this planned class disruption should be disciplined to the fullest extent possible under Harvard’s policies.
The professor tried to move the class and couldn’t. His students were disrupted while trying to complete an in-class exam.
Completely unacceptable.
The rhetoric and actions taken by the eight people indicted in the University of Michigan conspiracy case was not just extreme. It was violent, threatening, and openly conspiratorial.
According to the indictment, one defendant said: “I’m gonna be the dirtiest f**king doctor ever.”
Another said: “get into that house then burn it down.” 🧵

Wow… The Babies are No Longer Protected Against Measles
Moms antibodies used to give 6-9 months of Ab protection to infants
Now, protection is gone by ~4 months
Neutralizing Ab titers = 0 by 6m
And… if we give MMR early to fill the gap it can drive a long-term problem

Excellent article in the Wall Street Journal on Britain's unsustainable welfare spending:
— 7 million people (over 10% of the UK population) now claim at least one or more sickness or disability benefit. This is up 60% in the past 6 years.
— The UK will spend over £100 billion pound this year on sickness and disability benefits. This is projected to increase to £130 billion a year by 2030.
— No other Western country has seen such a rise in disability claims. In the US, 10.6 million people claim some form of federal disability payment, despite the population being 5x larger.
— 1 in 7 new cars sold in the UK are under the Motability scheme; however, only 10% of cars are modified for a disability. In one dealership, 25 out of 26 cars they sold in August were all under the Motability scheme.
— Charities, consultants, YouTubers and TikTokers have all sprung up, telling people how to maximise benefit access. Some of these videos receive hundreds of thousands of views. Over 1,000 people a day are signing on for PIP.
— According to a Government survey from 2024, 25% of the UK's working age population could theoretically be classed as disabled under the current criteria and access these benefits.
— A minimum wage worker who works 40 hours per week would take home around £1,880 per month after tax; however, if you are classed as too sick to work and claim PIP, you can take home ��2,000 tax free per month.

@NTFabiano “Hesitant to prescribe” a treatment not covered by insurance, isn’t standardized like drug manufacturing, and opens docs to malpractice suits when grandma tears her ACL doing CrossFit.
@kellyclarkson The same people upset at you cheer Hasan Piker when he wants all landlords (minus his mommy) to bleed out in the street. Also this exact thing happened to Serena Williams like a decade ago and you all magically supported her 🐸☕️
Huge drop in Google searches for various health disinformation topics following the Ukrainian strikes on Russian data centers.
It makes you wonder how much of the “turbo cancer, ivermectin” nonsense is really fueled by Russian bots, & how many Americans they’ve killed…
