It's tick season! A mild winter, early spring, & warmer temps that allow tick species to expand their territories mean we've started early. "Weekly visits are the highest reported since 2017 in all regions except" TX, NM, OK, LA & AR. There were 114 ER... www.washingtonpost.com/he….

Where emergency visits for tick bites are highest in the United States

Experts point to several reasons for the larger-than-usual spike, but there are easy ways to protect yourself.

Jen & I have had a wonderful time seeing the University of Wyoming & now get to explore Laramie. We came to discuss the cognitive mechanisms behind biased expert judgments & practical ways we might address it. A really engaged group of students & faculty!

My spouse and kid went to the Raleigh protest, which focused on “kids before companies!” (I am post-op & not able to march yet), and there was a MASSIVE turnout

A May Day protester is asked why they are out protesting today in NYC: "People are suffering. People are dying. The rich get richer off the backs of poor and working class people." Nailed it!

Took the pets to the vet today; vaccines and annual exam. Felt a little bad politely (but repeatedly) declining everything else, and wanted to tell them “I decline all the unnecessary stuff for myself too” No, we are not getting the wellness screening labs 🙄🙄🙄

I find it utterly repulsive that Jay Bhattacharya called my colleague’s research proposal “bad science” (Dr Green’s proposal was to study inequalities in healthcare) I coauthored this piece with Dr Green for @bmj.com on how the war on DEI will worsen Americans’ health: www.bmj.com/content/391/...

Notably this is the “bad science” I was accused of doing a few months ago. Here’s some statements from the NIH Director justifying meddling in already vetted research because it is “DEI”. Please let me know if you think that studying unequal treatment in healthcare against all adults is “DEI”?

Brinda Adhikari 51:42
Okay, so Jay, what would you say to Michael Green in that situation?
Jay Bhattacharya 51:47
I'd say that he didn't take advantage of the opportunity to rethink his grant. Like, we gave him the opportunity, and he didn't take advantage of it, right? So he again, I didn't know this grant specifically, but, like, I'll tell you, like, based on the title, what hear is a grant where it has as a premise, something that, in principle, couldn't have a control group.
And so does bad science. So I, you know, I do again-
Brinda Adhikari 52:09
So what would have made us better?
Jay Bhattacharya 52:11
Just okay for let me just finish Brinda. So I think if, if I say that, I provisionally, because, again, l've not read his grant so, but based on that 90 second snippet, he had the opportunity to be more specific about his hypotheses, make them actually scientific, give them give make arguments for control groups. We gave him that opportunity, and he didn't take it. That's what I'd say. In
Brinda Adhikari 52:35
Let me ask you, you know, is it worthwhile? Because I know that one of the things you have talked a lot about is improving health outcomes. Do you believe that there is scientific merit to studying the role that discrimination plays in health outcomes?
Jay Bhattacharya 52:56
What do you mean by discrimination?
Brinda Adhikari 52:58
That if a- that when a patient goes to a doctor, and the doctor has, you know, is, is treating black patients differently than other patients, that that can lead to poor health outcomes, and that's worthwhile to study.
Jay Bhattacharya 53:11
So Brinda, so you, you said earlier that there that minorities may have different health, you know, biology or other things, doctors ought to take that into account, right?

*stares at trajectory of gas prices and increasingly apocalyptic notes from industry analysts* I wouldn’t describe it as reassured, per se.

Before you are too reassured, this is completely a function of gas prices.
