"Quitting the WHO was foolish. #Epidemics don't start in Iowa cornfields; they start in faraway jungles and wet markets. To stop them, you need to move fast... Also, the WHO is the hub for global disease alerts. When passengers who might have #hantavirus disembark from a Dutch ship and then fly to the U.S., we want to be told -- and quickly." https://www.medpagetoday.com/opinion/parasites-and-plagues/121283

The Formula for Better Health: How to Save Millions of Lives—Including Your Own by Tom Frieden, 2025

The formula to stop invisible killers—an approach that can protect your health and prevent the next pandemic—from one of the most influential public health leaders in the US.

#FDA #healthcare #publichealth #vaccines #medicine #epidemics #pandemics #measles #publicschools U.S. plans to stop recommending most vaccines for #children and defer to #doctors. This approach, which is not finalized, would mark a fundamental shift in the #healthcare system that generally relies on federal health agencies to guide how children are protected against disease. It was not immediately clear which #shots would no longer be recommended. #insurance #medicine doctor visits - really!!

This week's #NewBooks at the library: I bought second-hand copies of Fevered Planet: How #Diseases Emerge When We Harm Nature by the late John Vidal and #Dust: The Modern World in a Trillion Particles by Jay Owens, and picked up a review copy of Uncommon Ground: Rethinking Our Relationship With the #Countryside by Patrick Galbraith.

This #Trump attack on #PublicHealth has flown under the radar, but it means fewer people to keep us safe from #epidemics and other threats. https://aspph.org/department-of-education-proposal-excludes-public-health-degrees-from-professional-degree-definition/

If you live in the #US & think your country has turned to shit under #Trump - seriously consider #LEAVING IT.

With the #TrumpRegime’s morons running things into the ground, a sudden or continued #BrainDrain might open his supporters eyes, as the best & brightest get outta Dodge.

Things will only get uglier & more violent as time goes on

Think about it #USPol #auspol

Time’s running out. If #ICE don’t target you or someone you care about, you’ll be dealing with #epidemics & no #FEMA or #CDC

The Triumph of the Fungi: A Rotten History by Oxford Nicholas, 2006

This book is concerned with the most devastating fungal diseases in history. These are the plagues of trees and crop plants, caused by invisible spores that have reshaped entire landscapes and decimated human populations.
