  1. RE: mstdn.social/@DemocracyMatters

    Read this and weep. I hope that our collective rage against this politics of #eugenics and hate matches and ultimately overcomes the scorn heaped upon the world by #Trump, #RFK, and the #fascists who are currently in charge. These people who have cut #NIH funding for #cancer, #dementia, & other #diseases that cause such suffering do not deserve the medical treatment that comes with the #research they attack and refuse to fund. It's a shanda.

  6. An exciting first day at the #iDR26 meeting in Brussels on drug #repurposing.

    Academics, company representatives, funders, policy makers, patients and others, all gathered to discuss how to help #repurpose #medicines for the many #diseases still with unmet medical needs, including #vascular #anomalies.

    - this all sounds off mark yet bullseye simultaneously.

  13. Many of the families Dr. Jones has seen in the hospital for #measles are not staunchly opposed to #vaccines; they have often have delayed shots because of their concerns about the side effects. The #MMR vaccine is considered very #safe & about 97% effective in preventing #infection.

    “There’s so much #misinformation out there,” he said. “They get way more information about the side effects of vaccines than they ever get about what can happen if you catch one of these #diseases.”

  14. These #Diseases Could Come Roaring Back

    Before #vaccines , death and #disability stalked #children. But if #immunization rates drop, these diseases could come roaring back. Now, #health Secretary Robert F. #Kennedy Jr., who founded an #antivaccination group, is considering changes that could prompt drug companies to stop supplying lifesaving shots in the U.S., making it harder for children to get them.

  20. Does #capitalism still deliver, or does it only destroy our living space for #profit?

    Anyone who is not completely blind can see the slope is getting steeper. We are like on the Titanic. The iceberg is right ahead. Everyone stares at it like a deer in headlights. Frozen. Or weirdly fascinated. No one moves.

    Capitalism does not even need #democracy. It runs just fine in #China. The #rich get richer at breathtaking speed. They gain more power every day. Meanwhile, many people are exploited. Some even go hungry.

    #Infrastructure falls apart where it brings no profit. Gains are privatized. Losses are shared by everyone. Capitalism works great for arms races and wars. It also works great for rebuilding after. Only #peace seems to bring too little profit.

    #Diseases without profitable drugs are ignored. Human suffering does not always sell well. But social-media #algorithms that shake democracy? Very profitable. Public goods, #privacy, data protection, #ethics — all side characters. Hard to monetize. The #future and sustainability also feel optional when today’s shareholder payout boosts #power and profit.

    Why do we believe that people driven by greed and contempt will build a better future? Maybe #humanity does not really care about democracy or ethics. Maybe it only cares about #consumption. Ads promise that buying things will make us #happy. And of course, anyone against capitalism should throw the first #smartphone.

    Running water, electricity, full supermarkets — all nice. Until you notice the food is packed with sugar and salt. Fresh fruit and vegetables carry poison. The oceans are overfished. The fish comes with #microplastics as a bonus. Wild animals vanish, pushed out by humans. Only farm animals multiply by the millions. They #suffer. #Nature breaks.

    This story does not feel like it has a happy ending. Not if we keep scrolling and call it progress.
