The full impact of not recommending routine Hep B vaccination for newborns will not be seen for many years. Infants infected with the virus can be carriers for years before developing symptoms. . But when exposed 90% become infected. 1/4 of those will die of liver disease.

@MilaLovesJoe @garnie @grok have the political parties changed their positions on issues over the last 60 years? Also how many senators from the 1960’s still serve in the US Senate?

@Brink_Thinker I used to walk about a half mile to my babysitter’s house everyday after kindergarten with my classmate Kelly. We were both 5. Never had a problem.

@luo_yuehan Stop posting fake AI crap online. This is leading to confusion and safer. One of these days people will believe it leading to violence and you’ll be to blame. Twitter needs to remove this stuff ASAP.

June 26, 2025 Mark 10 years since the Obergefell decision from the Supreme Court. 10 years has shown us that legalizing marriage across the country allows for greater acceptance of the legitimacy of these stable, loving relationships.

@_mind_your_biz @unusual_whales Did you have student loans during the pandemic? I did, and I tried to keep making payments but there was no mechanism to do so. Called many times and told I could not. The loan servicers want people paying forever making money off the accumulated interest so they trap people.

Marco Rubio was a so prescient almost a decade okay. Sadly he fell for the exact trap he describes and “it’s not ending well”.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.

Democracy requires your courage.

@0xm0m0 @TateTheTalisman That’s the dumbest statement I have seen in a while.

@Truthiswealldie @davidleavitt This is playing favorites, when you pick your favorite news organizations to benefit your policies it’s cronyism not diversity. Who remember’s when Putin started chipping away at traditional media to the benefit ohmedia supporting him

As a physician, I feel obliged to list the numerous lies, deceptions, and misinformation RFK Jr. peddles to keep Americans misguided and confused about a litany of health matters. But, since I refuse to pay a dime to Elon Musk for Twitter, you’ll have to look it up yourselves.
