More than 98% of families in this country choose to vaccinate their young children. But now, vaccine policy is being shaped by the small, extreme minority that doesn’t. This decision doesn’t reflect, protect or support families.

The child poverty rate is 12% in the States - instead of supporting people & charities trying to help, we celebrate vacuous celebrities being shot into space because they want to “connect with the divine.” How about connecting with children who need food, housing & an education?

🚨 Publication 🚨 Does location outside houses differ in parasite contamination risks? Our molecular epidemiology in Peru shows there is a link. Wonderful to see our collaboration as a research publication. @EricWetzel2 @ZengKatharine @BCM_TropMed

#WorldTBDay" spotlights #Tuberculosis as a disease, but also its meaning. The fact that TB's been around since antiquity, we have the meds & know how to cure it, & it's still the #1 killer among infectious diseases speaks volumes about who & what we value.

This would be an exceptionally good time to mask up on planes, in airports. #Measles is highly contagious and airborne.

Highly recommend this book for all in #PublicHealth!

I couldn’t be more proud to be in public health. We continue to accomplish so much with so little, and the work is often invisible.

Here’s to 2025. Happy New Year!

[Wabash Global Health @WabashGH]

Congratulations! Thanks for the ways that you show us how #CollegeHealth intersects with #PublicHealth #GlobalHealth
