When I was in Laos I went to a prosthetics museum, which exists because of how many people have had limbs blown off from stepping on unexploded US bombs from the 70s. They had a whole kids' section, tiny wooden legs. The US still refuses to clean it up. That's Kissinger's legacy

A lot of the bombs were dumped when the Americans didn't end up releasing all of them on bombing runs so instead of risking their own lives landing a plane full of bombs, they just dropped them on random Laotian fields and forests before heading back to base

(The above photos are from the museum, called the COPE Visitor Centre. I found them online because all my photos are on my old computer but I can dig them up too if people are interested, I got lots of shots of the information plaques)

Evidence suggests the expansion of nursing and physician assistants is a serious safety risk for patients. Doctors train for 7 years: 5 years as an undergraduate, 2 years as a pre-registration foundation doctor. Assistants study for just 2 years. They’re meant to be closely

It is more important to look at why Trump was allowed to run, after committing sedition and a number of other crimes to which he confessed, than why he was able to win.

But I do t think we have a safe and stable agricultural without them. I hope The RFK jr bluster is just that: hot air. But I do not like his ideas around crop production. Don’t like the EPA, at least they have a mandate to register pesticides. Someone like RFK jr…

lmight consider stripping that away, leaving very few options for very serious problems. Am I overreacting? Maybe. But I also see that as my job. I’m supposed to think about the issues we don’t have solutions for and try to preemptively address them.

I was more clear on Facebook.

Yesterday, TIME broke news of a landmark advance in gene editing and de-extinction. This piece has proven divisive, and many criticisms I have seen are misplaced or incorrect. This 🧵 is intended to provide my take, based on my own expertise, and set the record straight.

I talked to Rob Stein NPR about my views on the new LAB (TRUMP) LEAK website. This website is not scientifically or factually accurate. It's propaganda intended to justify wiping out America's entire capacity for public health and science. npr.org/sections/shots…
