Cyclosporiasis is spreading. Now cases are confirmed in 32 states. abcnews.com/Health/cyclo...

The U.S. is just a few dozen measles cases away from exceeding the number of cases recorded in 2025.

So...what have we learned so far? Climate change isn't real. Covid is over. We don't need immunizations. We don't need food safety. Did I get that right?

CDC stopped monitoring parasite now causing explosive diarrhea across the country

Hooman, must you disturb my slumber? #Caturday

Mom, I've finished my meal...please clean my dish while I bathe in the sun. #Caturday

Still on Cloud 9 after receiving this review of one of my children's STEM inspired books! #KidsLit #HealthLiteracy youtu.be/gUIlEh94vC0?...

My moose hat was too cute not to take a pic. Still masking (deco cloth mask over my KN95). #oneofthetwo 😷 #ThisIsPublicHealth

Woohoo! My session was highly attended at this year's AFACCT conference. 🎊🎉 #PublicHealth and #STEM

Has your little reader been enjoying the Noa The Little Scientist book series? The picture books are now available as audibooks! Great for travel and as a read along helper if your little is still working on their literacy skills. #HappyReading

A holiday gathering story in three photos. #ThisIsPublicHealth

Sometimes, my mask matches my outfit 😷. I swap out a decorative cloth mask to wear on top of my KN95 to keep it cute 😁 #ThisIsPublicHealth

Despite growing threats, global #malaria efforts have prevented an estimated 170M cases and 1M deaths in 2024. WHO calls on endemic countries to lead the response and for partners to enable them in their commitment to #EndMalaria 👉 bit.ly/3Y6IcXn

Air purifier seems to be working.

Appetizers/Small talk. Have moved to yellow, but not too, too bad. Air purifier is now turned on.

Corporate Holiday Party. Sitting on an end table near the door. So far, so good. 🤞🏽

I've recently published more children's books. Their focus is on #STEM, #PubHlth and #literacy Does anyone know any #bookreviewers? Anyone know any Educators/Resource Officers that do #leveling? Please send them my way: www.amazon.com/stores/Shene...

It's a great day to wash and air dry your mask outside! #PubHlth #Masking

It's #NationalBookLoversDay! Looking for some new reads for your little? Got you covered 😉 #STEM + #PubHlth + #Literacy #HappyReading www.amazon.com/stores/Shene...

All things considered, I'm surprised there are fireworks going off tonight. 😬

Conference Ready

OMG if this goes global...

Captain America was good! Went to an unpopular showing time to reduce exposure. Pleasantly surprised that everyone distanced themselves when buying assigned seating tix. KN95 + my decorative cloth mask to keep it cute. 😃

These mask lanyards really reduce the pressure around your ears. Think of it like those around your neck holders for glasses. Clip one to each ear strap of your mask and use the button to adjust it snug to your face. No earache, no headache, and your mask stays in place. Love mine.

Just gonna drop this reminder on your TL. #confirmation2025 "Pops gum...walks away."

While it may be a win, of sorts, it leaves the impression that if ProPublica hadn't released these details, it would still be kept under wraps. #AmberThurman #CandiMiller #PublicHealth 📊 www.propublica.org/article/geor...

If you know any Black scientists trying to get into science communication and journalism send them my way #science #journalism #scicomm

The Black Science Coalition and Institute has joined Bluesky! We are a 501c3 nonprofit based out of Philly. We focus on science communication and journalism! #Scicomm #Scijournalism Check out our YouTube youtube.com/@b-sci?si=r_...

🧪 Bluesky academics, let's get to know each other! Quote this & tell me: 1) a project you are working on & 2) an odd idea/theory you aren’t working on but keep thinking about 1. Potable Water Rinsing Efficacy after QUAT usage. 2. Correlation between personal hygiene and intestinal parasites.

Well, damn. #PublicHealth

H5 bird flu virus levels in Los Angeles County wastewater have increased AGAIN, reaching a new high of 172.5, up from 109.3. The second wastewater sample station in the county also tested positive for the first time.

My bad. Forgot to intro myself. I'm Shenell and I do science and public health. "Trust me, Imma doctah!" NTKOD. My interests include SciComm and other fun stuff. I enjoy helping bridge the gap between science/PubHlth and the community. Follow me if these things interest you. 👩🏽‍🔬😁

So, we live skeeting the Tyson fight tonight or nah?

Can anybody point me in the direction of the scientists starter pack? Is there more than one?

First post. So, what do we call posts here? I'm so used to saying "tweet." Anyway, hey y'all, haaayyyyyy! #BlackSky
