Any health professionals out there who've challenged weight-normative or anti-fat training in their field? Looking to form a panel for this year's #WeightStigmaConference in Denver.

Re: fear-based public health strategies, this RCT found that graphic tobacco warning labels reduced positive perceptions of cigarettes & thoughts of quitting in smokers - but didn't affect cigarette cessation or consumption levels. #PM568

Researchers MUST communicate clearly & thoroughly with study participants. Failing to do so violates ethical standards & breeds distrust. #Zika #PM568

As @TrevorProject's National Survey shows, gender non-conforming youth have increased risk of anxiety, depression, self-harm and suicide. Bills like these threaten their health and their lives. #PM568

Important, straightforward info to share with anyone who's concerned by how quickly the vaccines were developed. No steps were skipped, y'all! #PM568

[Washington State Department of Health @WADeptHealth]

No steps were skipped in the process of developing the COVID-19 vaccine. Researchers have been studying and working with mRNA for decades. In fact, mRNA can actually generate stronger immunity than traditional vaccines. The Pfizer vaccine has also been fully approved by the FDA.

"In countries where air pollution levels are below standards set by the World Health Organization (WHO), people are, on average, losing 2.2 years of their lives"

Air pollution is slashing years from billions of people's lives around the world and is a greater threat to life expectancy than smoking, HIV/AIDS or war, a new report shows. https://t.co/VLcymxbChB

[Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus @DrTedros]

On average in high-income countries 1 in 4 people has received a #COVID19 vaccine. In low-income countries it’s 1 in 500+. Scarcity of supply is driving vaccine nationalism and vaccine diplomacy. This is a time for partnership, not patronage. We must accelerate #VaccinEquity now!

"Experts estimate that the severe reductions in coverage of essential maternal and child health [services] caused by COVID-19 could result in 1.2 million additional child deaths and 57,000 additional maternal deaths every six months during the pandemic" #PM565

[PATH Advocacy @PATHadvocacy]

The world has seen significant disruptions to essential health services leading to a reduction in the provision of #MNCH, #FamilyPlanning, and #ReproductiveHealth care. We must renew our focus on women and children, write @mar__becerra and @avanduym. https://t.co/j8uN7mgUaA

#VaccineEquity is not an act of charity; it’s the best and fastest way to control the pandemic globally, and to reboot the global economy. #COVID19
