I am a bit skeptical about Denario, an AI-powered method that creates a research idea after feeding it some data (HARKing?) and then generates lots of plots and writes a paper. astropilot-ai.github.io/DenarioPaperPa… I have some questions about AI-slop, reliability, and ethics.

For more information about the Friday night massacre at CDC, I wrote up an analysis of who got terminated and what that means for public health. Grateful to @SaveAmericaMvm for supporting and amplifying. We are in really terrible trouble. rasmussenretorts.substack.com/p/the-death-of…
I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity.
Further undermining of the public health system in the US. @EU_Commission please watch closely because this is going to be devastating. Let's make sure Europe can withstand the misinformation coming from Washington @florian_krammer geneticliteracyproject.org/2025/10/08/pub…
A non peer reviewed pre-print is not gold standard science. That is little more than a glorified social media post. Let’s see what happens once this is peer reviewed.
As usual, the mainstream media attacks me for something I didn’t say in order to distract from the truth of what I did say. At yesterday’s Cabinet meeting, I said: “There are two studies that show children who are circumcised early have double the rate of autism, and it’s highly…
Age-standardized deaths for all cancers have continued to fall steadily since 2000. No change since COVID-19 vaccines introduced. ANOTHER mail in the coffin of the “turbo cancer” lie peddled by some grifters.
The ONS have released the full mortality data for 2024. Big fail for turbo cancer.
Arrived back in the Netherlands, where there is another train SNAFU - or is it still the same one as on Wednesday?
Like many others, I agree with RFK that America’s health is poor and that our healthcare system is dysfunctional. But that shouldn’t mean that we must go backwards on childhood vaccinations, supporting pregnant moms, and keeping CDC workers safe. None of that will actually MAHA.
Disinformation and the destruction of public health & America’s trust in doctors will kill more people than cigarettes. Neither I nor the other five living Surgeons General wanted to call for this unprecedented warning- but all felt compelled by duty to do so.…
Trump Administration Lays Off Dozens of C.D.C. Officials “Disease detectives,” high-ranking scientists, the entire Washington office and the staff of a weekly public health journal were among those who learned late Friday that they would lose their jobs. nytimes.com/2025/10/11/us/…
Even if that’s true (which is arguable, at best), it does not imply that the solution is to embrace pseudoscience and unproven (and disproven) quackery, which is always the implication with people like Means or @SecKennedy cite quotes like this.
“The case against science is straightforward: much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue. Science has taken a turn toward darkness.” -Richard Horton, former Editor-in-Chief of The Lancet (the world’s premier medical journal)
I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity.
