A word about what’s going on in Los Angeles:

[tern @1goodtern]

Unmentioned by the government, by health media, by doctors, by wellness commentators, by anyone, there has been an >astonishing< change in the underlying causes of deaths in the UK.

[Lynne Shawyer @sarannedreams]

Must find out what it is for Australia.

@DrNeilStone My aunt and 2 uncles died young from diseases routinely vaccinated for in babies today.
My grandparents excuse - Vaccines weren't invented yet. They would have given anything for a vaccine!
To those who refuse vaccines for their children today -What is your excuse?

[Andrea C. Love, PhD @dr_andrealove]

FDA-approved vaccines had randomized, placebo-controlled trials.

Polio?
Measles, mumps, rubella?
Haemophilus influenzae B?
Diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis?
Meningococcus?
Varicella?
Pneumococcus?
Rotavirus?
RSV?
Hep B?
Influenza?
HPV?
COVID-19?
Shingles?

A thread🧵

I’m autistic
And when I heard RFK Jr. wants a government registry to track people like me
using private medical records
I didn’t think “safety”
I thought Nazi Germany
A roundup’s of disabled people

Because I know history
And I know exactly what comes after the list is made

This isn’t about health
This is about control
It’s about fear
It’s about marking people
People like me
Neurodivergent people
Different people

Don’t dress it up as policy
This is how roundups begin

You want to stop autism discrimination?
Start by not creating a fucking list

[Marc Johnson @SolidEvidence]

Last month there was an announcement that I thought was a major advancement in world health, but it got little attention.
I thought I would tell you all a little bit about it and why it is so important.

@TristanSnell Will the USA still have 'exorbitant privilege' or has the horse bolted?

@1goodtern Looking at what is happening in the world I would have to say YES!

Breaking News
Penguins from Australian Heard & McDonald islands have arrived in Washington for tariff talks. I'll keep you posted on any updates on 😇😇🤣🤣

Tariff memes. A thread 🧵:

Wow, just wow.

[Alan Baxter ♛ @AlanBixter]

Trump plans to add tariffs (sales taxes) to Australian products sold in the US because of a trade imbalance. Bizarrely, Australia is being punished for having a trade DEFICIT with the US, so the easiest way for us to avoid being punished is to stop buying US products. /2

[Amy Remeikis @AmyRemeikis]

I just keep thinking of the heartlessness of going to an election promising to sack 41,000 people just because they’ve chosen public service. The LNP talks of small business owners going out of business as a tragedy. How is sending thousands of people into unemployment not?
