I saw post asking what to call parents who refuse vaccines. The word you want is “free loader”: relying on others to vaccinate and take a tiny risk while you take none. This works until the system collapses under the free load. I used this rarely after long discussions. It worked. #pedsky #measles

I practiced in a rural community. I saw up close devastation of vaccine preventable illness. Some before vaccine introduced, some after: HIB& pneumococcal meningitis, measles pan-encephalitis, chickenpox ataxia, etc

Today 3000 people of San Francisco created the massive Human Banner on the Beach that you see below (as photographed from a drone above). Each of those letters is 100's of people working for 1 cause. Together we can save the country!

I spent a little over 2 years after retiring from Peds practice as senior AmeriCorps Volunteer in MN preschool. This woman is speaking truth. @indivisiblesf.bsky.social #pedsky #redwingsnowstorm
"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

No matter why this person was subdued (and I doubt there was a good reason), this is torture. Demonstrates complete lack of ethical law enforcement. That’s why I support eliminating ICE. No funding!

Me too!
I would, I think, normally have dismissed or at least shrugged at the Governor’s invocation of MN as a special place with its own ethos and distinct moral identity.
But I lived there. And it’s true.

What brings a retired rural pediatrician to tears? -the memories of children seriously harmed by vaccine prevents illness (before & after vaccine introduced). Yet not a single memory of serious vaccine harm. We deserve better.
This OpEd, by the inspirational @drdemetre.bsky.social in today’s @washingtonpost.com, is one of the best pieces of science writing of 2025
I’ll be assigning it to my students next semester in my class on ‘policy writing—turning evidence into public health action’

The visual positive impact of vaccines is startling. In my early career, I asked elderly friends & relatives about childhood disease. Almost everyone had lost a sibling-including my Dad’s brother - likely RSV/Whooping Cough at age 2 months. #removeRFKJr

Proud to be a Pediatrician(retired), member of AAP, & to have worked closely for/with Public Health during the COVID pandemic. People want to forget how frightening those early days were, how grateful people were for the vaccine, how devastating the illness was for many families. #StandUpforScience
(1/3) Pediatric health care and strong public health agencies are two planks in the foundation of children’s health and wellbeing. CDC has long been a leading resource for research and evidence-backed recommendations on how to keep children healthy.

I’m trying to hold on to hope of a better world, but my daughter telling me she heard the gunfire from the mass school shooting in her MPLS neighborhood this morning almost undid me. Please don’t offer thoughts/prayers. We need to fight the fascists AND make gun sellers liable for this. #pedsky

The TX campers deaths and injuries are senseless and tragic…and so are the school shootings that happen regularly. We will debate if the campers deaths was preventable, but we know that school shootings are preventable with gun sense laws. #thoughtsprayers
