  1. Yesterday, I got the flu and covid vaccines. This batch knocked me out, and I slept over 15 hours that night. I'm still sleepy and not quite mentally present. Very glad to only have the vaccine and not the full disease.

    So, for today's #inkyDays drawing, I'm going with something super simple, and not even attempting to think about the #SciArtSeptember challenge. Perhaps I'll be doing better tomorrow.

  7. CVS keeps telling me I can get my flu vaccine now, at the same time I get my next Covid vax later this week. But I’ll wait until October, as recommended:

    statnews.com/2026/09/02/vaccin

    The various medical groups stressed the need for patients of their members to receive flu, Covid, and RSV vaccines if recommended, and to get them at the appropriate time. Sarah Nosal, president of the American Academy of Family Physicians, noted, for instance, that because the effect of flu vaccination can wane over the course of the season, the best time to get an influenza shot would be in October, which is typically closer to the start of the season.

  17. Was talking with @jennifer and we agree on this - growing up, we saw the climate crisis coming but didn't realize it would hit this soon. What we didn't see was American fascism or antivaxx becoming dominant narratives.

    For me in particular, I've been in love with the idea of AI since I was little. LLMs aren't it. I've never seen AI as tooling, I guess. I've seen it as a way to eventually create beings without our physical limitations.

    I'm an optimist, and I never considered capitalists seeing AI as a way to create slaves and displace workers.

    I'm going to get a copy of "Blood in the Machine: The Origins of the Rebellion Against Big Tech." I've ordered it from my local book store, but it's here at Barnes and Noble too:

    (Please join me in boycotting Amazon.)

    Anyway, the author was interviewed by #BigPictureScience in 2024.

  18. Catholic bishops - pro-vaccination - vs the Florida bachwards anti-vaccination government

    Catholic bishops can write some awesome smackdown letters

    Florida Catholics slap down state AG by rejecting religious vaccine exemptions

    The bishops’ snub comes as the state continues to attack vaccines.

  20. Congo is set to receive 70,000 Ebola vaccine doses as its largest recorded outbreak continues to spread.

    Latest figures:

    • 5,208 confirmed cases
    • 2,476 deaths
    • 6 provinces affected
    • 20,000 vaccine doses reserved for a Phase 3 trial
    • 50,000 doses intended for healthcare and frontline workers

    That is why part of the shipment will be used to test whether it can provide protection.

  21. “In 2024, a child younger than 10 years is 40% more likely to survive to their next birthday relative to a hypothetical scenario of no historical vaccination.”

    This is what the executive order and the FDA are trying to take away.

  22. #Honeybees and #shrimp are now getting vaccinated
    #Vaccines that target #invertebrates’ innate #immunesystems could be a major boon for agriculture
    It has become increasingly clear that #innateimmunesystem has own way of creating immune memory. Scientists think this memory is achieved through #epigenetic changes, modifications to #DNA that don’t alter genetic sequence, and that these epigenetic changes can be passed from one generation to the next.

  23. #Children have borne the brunt of the #infections, making up >70% of confirmed cases. >80 children & adolescents have been hospitalized this year for complications like #pneumonia, which leaves patients gasping for air, & #brain swelling, which can cause lasting damage, including #blindness, #deafness & intellectual #disabilities. (There are NO treatments for #measles, though researchers are trying to develop them.)

  24. "#Measles doesn't just make you miserable for a week or two. It infects immune cells, including the long-lived memory cells your body uses to recognize #infections it has already beaten, and it wipes out part of that hard-won memory.

    A 2019 study in Science found measles erased anywhere from 11% to 73% of children's existing antibody repertoire, and even kids with mild cases lost about 20% on average."
