I can recall a time when many shunned expert recommendations with real consequences. Today - different pathogen, different circumstances - but recommendations are absent, at best, and expert bodies themselves are questionable. We can choose how we respond. I’d like to think science will prevail.

If there was ever a question that the CDC is no longer lead by an actual scientist, here’s evidence that the CDC is no longer lead by an actual scientist.

The leader of health and human services ran out of the room, and the leader of our country shows no indication of helping. This is not leadership.

“Don’t boo. Vote.”

Get the facts about PrEP. It's not just for cisgender gay men-it's for people of all genders, sexual orientations, and backgrounds. Let's work together to end stigma and make sure everyone has access to HIV prevention. #PrEPawarenessweek

While the president was presenting the “updated” guidance from the FDA to the public, the head of the FDA made an appeal to his peers in the medical community that is much to the contrary…basically saying “Tylenol is safe in pregnancy and there’s no new evidence to change that.”

Happy Rochester PRIDE! With every year I hope more and more realize why this expression of love and support and community exists, and why it needs to continue to grow and thrive, especially now.

Trump's win exposes some uncomfortable truths about the America we live in, and the chasm between that and the America we thought we lived in. Thank you to Aaron Hughey EdD people.wku.edu/aaron.hughey/ for authoring one of the best post-election assessments I’ve read so far.

It used to be that motor vehicle-related accidents were the primary cause of death among children. Unfortunately firearms and drug overdoses have entered the picture as important (and preventable) causes of death. This is an area ripe for a public health — and ultimately policy — solution.

Oh and Go Bills.

It wasn’t just Ferris who wasn’t paying attention to how tariffs worked…

A great event for a great cause - 80s Prom in support of Rochester Hearing and Speech Center. And if this doctor thing doesn’t work out I can always DJ parties.

Hopefully soon!
