Wanna know how to tell whoever is running the CDC has no clue what they're talking about?
It's "correlate of protection," not "correlative protection." h/t @malar0ne.bsky.social

A huge step from HHS that is at odds with science showing significant risks for young children and pregnant women — and that directly contradicts *the FDA's own publication* from last week listing pregnancy as a high-risk condition that would qualify people for this fall's Covid vaccine

The NY State Senate passed my bill to require health insurers cover the COVID vaccine—just hours after @RobertKennedyJr fired all the @CDCgov vaccine panel experts.

The CDC is joking about mass infection, and still are not recommending masks. This is NOT how to do effective science communication.

If 982 is the total number at HHS staff who were supposed to be fired, it seems the bulk of those laid off are at @CDCgov.

I’m not ready to give up on MMWR yet either as I know the 1000s of scientists who will publish great and timely work if empowered to do so.
