PROFOUNDLY IMPORTANT THREAD FROM DR MARINO👇
Ryan Marino, MD@ryanmarino.bsky.social
He took over a small antivaccine group he liked in 2015, turned it into his own propaganda & money-laundering org that became the biggest antivaxx source in the world and made him more than $20K/week. You have to be very intentionally stupid to think this started in 2020 or was ever about liberalism

the disorder of the past decade? is general hux on the editorial board?
Tom Scocca@tomscocca.bsky.social
Here it is: the New York Times editorial board loves Rahm Emanuel because it believes—against all evidence—that the secret to managing public life in the big city is to have the cops bust up undesirables
![Screenshot of text:
Most worrisome, [Highlighting begins] he shows little concern about the disorder of the past decade [Highlighting ends], even though its costs have fallen hardest on the city’s working-class and poor residents. Mr. Mamdani, who has called Mr. de Blasio the best New York mayor of his lifetime, offers an agenda that remains alluring among elite progressives but has proved damaging to city life.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lyspo2bgxpznqtug5ir2q33g/bafkreibr6qu3lzd3uni7u7l3cjbz5epwrlvuv2e37ebb5loycidx4eufdy@jpeg)

Impact of measles on the body's immunity to other infections making individuals more vulnerable to infections and the risk of long term complications are the things that I worry most about from measles disease. Agree the importance for individuals to understand it is not just an acute illness.
Our World in Data@ourworldindata.org
Measles causes more than an acute illness: it suppresses immune memory and increases the risk of complications for years. Even in a typical case of measles, children who survive the infection recover slowly.
