Dr. Michael Peluso on LC therapies: “we need to move beyond single therapy treatments for Long COVID and begin to piece together combinations targeting the different biological mechanisms of Long COVID. Kind of hit this disease from multiple angles to try to get people feeling better.”

@aglorios Arg ... thinking of you

[Atul Gawande @Atul_Gawande]

Medicine and public health have added three decades to the human lifespan. Vaccination alone produced 40% of the reduction in child deaths.

And now a disturbed and unqualified man driven by crackpot theories is destroying the foundations of this work, including CDC.

EDITORIAL: Has CA learned anything from the rise of Trump? We can’t even pass common-sense housing bills, & Dem lawmakers are fighting over whether to require kids learn evidence-based reading skills. Folks, we trail Mississippi & Alabama in early literacy.https://t.co/hl4g6yfY7P

@aglorios This is insane. It makes no sense and it's cruel. I'm so sorry you have to deal with this crap, AG.

The science is abundantly clear: Mifepristone is overwhelmingly safe and effective, whether provided in-clinic, via telehealth, or in a local pharmacy.

Any attempts to roll back access have nothing to do with safety. This is about limiting abortion access. [🧵]

Even the experts didn't think the rates would stay the same, let alone go up: New study finds abortions have increased between 2020 and the end of 2023, including in nearly every state that has banned abortion: https://t.co/dHOCHaMzlg

About #PCOS: “The experience women describe is that they are often met with confusion or brushed off,” @UCSF's Dr. @HgHuddleston told @WomensHealthMag. “Even if they are given a diagnosis, they are not given much of an explanation about it.”

This is beyond appalling.

A disgusting scene on the eve of October 7:

Activists wave Hamas flags & vandalize @welcometomannys, a civic-gathering space owned by a Mizrahi Jew who was in Israel when Hamas killed 1200+ civilians.

All part of today's protest marking one year since the attacks.
