Don’t usually do *this* but, thread: Monday, SCOTUS debates the criminalization of homelessness. That means many folks are sounding off on the topic. I’ve spent 4 yrs covering this for @washingtonpost, and need to reality-check assumptions getting thrown around this week (1/x)
BREAKING from ProPublica: Blinken Is Sitting on Staff Recommendations to Sanction Israeli Military Units Linked to Killings or Rapes propublica.org/article/israel… by @BrettMmurphy
More disappointment on the pandemic prevention front. IMO the point of the Pandemic Accord has vanished. It could have shifted how the world stamps out epidemics w/agreements on how drugs, vaccines & tests are shared. Another lesson lost.

Viewpoint: US childhood vaccination rates are at a 10-year low. Here’s how fringe science views are seeping into the mainstream - my comments and interview with @amymaxmen @GeneticLiteracy geneticliteracyproject.org/2024/04/15/vie…
Woo! Ace reporter @BrettKelman wins a prestigious Polk Award for his investigation into terrifying dental devices. Give him a follow because it just gets MORE GORY from there. Dazzled by my colleagues @KFFHealthNews 🙌kffhealthnews.org/news/article/d…
As many as one in 10 people have TMJ, and yet treatment is poor. Experts warn dentists do not understand TMJ, common treatments are not based on science, and patients are “often harmed” during care. Some never recover. By me, @annawerner & @KFFHealthNews. kffhealthnews.org/news/article/i…

🚨New York’s COVID-19 vaccine strategy failed to prevent deaths among the most vulnerable. 💰Despite shortages, many younger people accessed vaccines ahead of schedule, particularly in high-income areas. 📈Our latest in the Journal of Urban Health bit.ly/COVIDZIP 🧵

Age is a Big Deal in covid. Four years of studies on outcomes, vaccines and Long Covid show that people over 60 face higher risks that rise with age. The median age in this Paxlovid study is just *42*.

MSF is horrified that Al-Shifa hospital is in ruins after a 14-day long operation by Israeli forces in and around the facility. Gaza’s largest hospital is now out of service. Given the extent of the destruction, people in the north are left with even fewer healthcare options.
1/ A human case of #H5N1 was just reported and is linked to the ongoing outbreak in US dairy cattle. How concerned should we be? It's good news that the patient is experiencing eye symptoms and had direct exposure to infected cattle. Why? 🧵

Flying pro-tip: Fernet + seltzer + a great book. This one is the scary story of the politicized movement to undermine science by @PeterHotez. Appropriate reading on the way to speak about misinfo @mcgillu with @paimadhu.
I’m retiring from a fabulous news organization: KFF Health News. The managing editor is being promoted to my job and, here’s the best part, we are looking for a managing editor. Great reporters, security and excellent benefits. kff.bamboohr.com/careers/76
I'm not being hyperbolic when I say this story is about choices the CDC is making now that will determine how many staff in hospitals & nursing homes will suffer in the next outbreak.

I miss you, @GrantWahl.
1/ I've seen many comments along the lines of, "We have no evidence that pasteurization inactivates #H5N1." We actually have quite a bit of evidence to suggest pasteurization will work and the presence of viral RNA is compatible w/ that evidence. Why am I not panicked? A🧵
Very important to note here that qPCR positives are not the same as "virus particles." It's much easier to detect viral RNA by qPCR than it is to detect infectious virus or intact virus particles (as the article correctly notes). This finding does have some big implications:
Some news. Professional: I'm headed back to where it all started - returning to DC after a quarter century away. I wonder if it's changed. Still Bloomberg; still health. Personal: This one is solo. Henry passed away in January. LAD MI. Brutal. He was 56. I am still wrecked
