Huge congratulations to Miguel-Angel Perales MD of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center on being named a Fellow of the ASTCT!

The field is fortunate to have your steady, visionary leadership—and generations of trainees are better for your mentorship and investment in their growth. Well deserved. 👏🌟

Sec. Kennedy must appear before the HELP Committee to explain why his vaccine advisory committee, in strong disagreement with the medical & scientific community, voted to end a decades-long recommendation that newborns receive the hepatitis B vaccine.

This vaccine saves lives.

12 former commissioners of the FDA came together to write a Perspectives piece for the New England Journal of Medicine; raising our concerns about recent changes to vaccine approval policy at the FDA and its implications for patients and public health.

People being treated for certain deadly cancers lived longer if they had received an mRNA-based vaccine against COVID-19 than if they hadn’t

Empirically, this is not true. Not all mothers have prenatal care. Some get infected between testing in the first trimester and delivery. In some cases, the test is overlooked. If a child is infected at birth, they have a 95% chance of becoming chronically infected UNLESS, they get one dose of hepatitis B vaccine. If they do, they have less than a 5% chance of being chronically infected.

News: The American Academy of Pediatrics says it will no longer take part in the process of ACIP meetings.

“We won’t lend our name or our expertise to a system that is being politicized at the expense of children’s health,” the group's president says.

Do you know someone who tried to get a Covid vaccine but couldn’t because the recommendations changed? I’m really interested in hearing those stories and documenting them. Please DM me or email me at work. Thanks so much.

[Helen Branswell 🇨🇦 @HelenBranswell]

Pretty interesting to see #CDC post pre-buttals on thimerosal in vaccines & the MMRV vaccine in advance of this week's #ACIP meeting, where the new committee appears intent on reopening debate on settled science. https://t.co/OwqDW9aLnm

It’s been an honor to serve as a voting member of ACIP. I’m so grateful to the extraordinary CDC staff who partnered with us on our work. And to Melinda Wharton, the ACIP Secretary who I’ve long looked up to as a public health leader.

[MSK Department of Medicine @MSK_DeptOfMed]

A recent study by @LaracyJustin and @mini_kamboj found that dipstick urine tests were accurate for diagnosing urinary tract infections in immunocompromised people being treated for #cancer, even those with a low white blood cell count. Having an accurate way to rule out infection reduces unnecessary antibiotic use, which positively influences outcomes. @MSKCancerCenter.

APIC calls for immediate reinstatement of CDC’s EIS officers recently laid off. Cutting frontline disease detectives threatens public health and weakens epidemic response. This decision must be reversed NOW.
