A lack of information is not proof of a conspiracy. Suspicion is not confirmation, and speculation should never be presented as established fact. We need to distinguish between what we know, what we don’t know, and what the evidence actually supports.

It’s reasonable to ask questions. It’s reasonable to demand transparency, and it’s absolutely reasonable to be concerned about laboratory safety. On the other hand, questioning an official narrative doesn’t automatically make an alternative explanation true.

The reports surrounding a possible plague-related laboratory incident in Russia have sparked plenty of speculation, conspiracy theories, and accusations of a cover-up. However, here’s something we need to remember: Skepticism is not equal to evidence!

I’m more motivated than ever to keep fighting for truth, especially when it feels like we’re living in two different realities.

You cannot make this up. He’s been in charge of HHS for 19 months. When does the finger-pointing end?

We’re in the worst measles outbreak in 35 years, and RFK Jr. tells the anti-vaccine organization he formerly chaired, Children’s Health Defense: “The government is in many ways impervious to science, to facts, to change.”

Susan Monarez showed us what that can look like. I wish Erica Schwartz would do the same.

The CDC director should not be the person who makes inconvenient public-health data disappear because a political appointee doesn’t like it. The job is to protect the scientific integrity of the agency, even when doing so puts your own job at risk.

Schwartz reportedly complied. That is exactly the moment when the director of the CDC needs to be willing to say: No. Show me the evidence. Let the scientists do their jobs.

Now we learned that HHS Secretary RFK Jr. asked current CDC Director Erica Schwartz to remove references to 2 PA measles deaths from the CDC’s online tally after questioning whether measles contributed to those deaths, even though CDC staff accepted PA’s characterization of them as measles-related.

I wish Erica Schwartz was more like Susan Monarez. You don’t have to agree with every decision Susan Monarez made to recognize something important: when she believed political pressure was threatening the scientific integrity of the CDC, she pushed back. That matters.

🇬🇧 UK FRIENDS: ALL ABOUT ALLERGIES IS JUST 99P ON KINDLE! For the entire month of August, the Kindle edition of All About Allergies is only 99p in the UK.

Vaccines remain one of the greatest lifesaving achievements in human history and no executive order can change the evidence.

If RFK Jr believes NYC’s ICU beds were empty, how does he also argue the United States had one of the worst pandemic outcomes in the developed world? Those claims seem incompatible.

Trump asked RFK Junior about autism research.
