This is obscene and exposes the limit of capitalism. Capitalism is a great motor for innovation and growth but has no place in the care of children.

Sunbeds should be banned in UK, skin cancer experts say

Classic antivax: Overstate adverse events, ignore disease risk. Now rife in official ACIP recs🤦‍♂️💔 Febrile seizure risk (no long-term effects, occur after ANY fever) for MMRV ≈ 1/2K-4K. SSPE risk for unvaxed infants, assuming survived acute measles, ~1/600. UNIVERSALLY FATAL.

In patients with localized colorectal cancer and PIK3CA hotspot mutations in exon 9 or 20, daily low-dose aspirin resulted in a significantly lower recurrence rate than placebo. ALASCCA phase 3 trial results: nej.md/4mpKXNp #MedSky #Oncology

We can prevent liver cancer from day 1.

Monarez: "Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were were inconsistent w/ my oath of office. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the scientific evidence. He also directed me to dismiss career officials responsible for vaccine policy without cause"

Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.

The man who has stated “don’t take medical advice from me” has disbanded the cdc vaccine advisory panel of experts to be replaced by new people with no details as yet as to how they will be selected. Rfk wrote about this in am op-ed. This is extremely worrisome 🧵🧪 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Happy TACO TUESDAY to all those who celebrate! #Yum 😋

When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left? All the shifts are in just one direction. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...

Is the BBC giving too much airtime to Reform UK? With me in the studio to discuss this are Nigel Farage, Richard Tice, Lee Anderson and Sarah Pochin.

Zia Yusuf has only been working hard for 11 months and claims to be exhausted. The people he's going to be hounding in local councils have been attempting to cover multiple jobs over the past 14 years. They know exhaustion. Hopefully they won't be too exhausted to tell him to f* off. #r4today

Experts predicted that A.I. would steal radiology jobs. But at the Mayo Clinic, they have begun using it as a tool to sharpen images, automate routine tasks, identify medical abnormalities, predict disease and also serve as “a second set of eyes.”

Greeted by Bullfinch in the garden this morning

This April, 19 young people’s charities came together for Teenage and Young Adult Cancers (15-24) awareness. The focus was on using innovation to tackle unique challenges in TYA cancer. A great example of collaboration! #innovation #collaboration #TYA UKONS (UK Oncology Nursing Society)

Bowel cancer awareness continues in April. This piece of kit could save your life. When invited, take up the offer of a kit through screening centres in Scotland, N.Ireland, England & Wales. You can also request a kit at your respective centre. It’s an invite you can’t ignore. #detectcancer

I received a heartbreaking email today: A paper in a special issue I’m editing is being retracted because one of its authors is afraid of losing their job and their legal status in the U.S. if they publish a scientific study on evolution. Yes, on evolution, nature's engine of diversity.

Wisconsin—ignore the polls & get your ass to the voting booth on Tuesday. Elon Musk is dumping millions to turn out a group that usually stays home—voters that the pollsters didn’t account for. Don’t let the richest man on Earth buy your state to serve his own interests. Show up and shut him down.👀
