Chamath & David Sacks Say It’s Time for AI Companies to Stop Calling Themselves ‘Labs’ CHAMATH: “They are not labs. These are for-profit corporations that are subject to product liability risk, and they should act accordingly.” SACKS: “It's this patina of virtue signaling that obscures what's really going on.”

Incredibly unethical newly published @CDCgov recommendations of COVID vaccines for healthy babies, children & adults! When @FDA has documented cases of post vaccination children deaths and the risk of myocarditis peaks between 16-24: Who will be responsible for the harm caused? I wonder how many of the CDC, FDA & @HHSGov career staff and the physicians pushing these recommendations actually use these product..?
💥BREAKING: CDC recommends off-label Covid vaccines for healthy babies, children and young adults The decision comes despite the FDA restricting vaccine approvals in people under 65 to higher-risk groups, and despite federal scientists linking child deaths to the shots.

Panel just reached what appears to be a consensus that the FDA should call this a "multi-cancer detection" test not a "Multi-cancer early detection test" -- minor setback for Grail, perhaps.

Finally!!!! An acknowledgment that the academic publishing system is broken—and Cornell proposes taking some of it back. A concrete recommendation is to redirect some of the money universities currently pay commercial publishers into university-controlled publishing infrastructure, university presses, and open-access journals. Their argument which is 💯 on the mark is that universities produce the scholarship, review it, and often fund it, yet have transferred control and dissemination to an outside system with commercial and gatekeeping interests. Hopefully other university and institutions will follow their lead!
1/ Cornell just dropped a 200+ page report on “The Future of the American University” — the latest in a string of reports this year focused on reform. provost.cornell.edu/_files/i…

Is this really the bar we’re setting for the industry??Detecting cancer once it has already reached stage IV should not be the benchmark we aspire to.
In a trial of a blood-based multicancer early-detection test added to usual care, the incidence of stage III or IV cancer after three rounds of screening did not differ significantly from that with usual care alone.

The @FDA CBER Director of Vaccines Review and Research, David Kaslow, has refused to multiple requests from ACIP to provide basic information re the testing that was done to detect potential DNA residuals in the mRNA COVID-19 vaccines! According to him the FDA is not obliged to share with CDC, ACIP or the public how these products were tested for a known potential contaminant! This is radical lack of transparency, that sabotages what @SecKennedy attempts to establish! It will be impossible to restore trust in public health and regulatory agencies with people with David Kaslow’s approach in charge…
🚨 THIS JUST TOOK A VERY SERIOUS TURN🫪 First, I asked for Moderna’s underlying residual-DNA testing/validation records. I was VERY specific. I was told Moderna’s confidential information couldn’t be released. So I changed the question. Fine. Don’t give me Moderna’s records. Give me FDA’s own records showing FDA reviewed, evaluated and validated Moderna’s testing…including whether the KanR test actually represented the TOTAL residual plasmid DNA left behind. If you have read Moderna’s Pre-Covid patents, been following Kevin McKernan and friends work, and Dr. Malones direct questioning at ACIP then you know why. FDA searched. Today they replied: “They found NONE responsive to that request.” In plain English: I asked for the receipts showing the regulators checked Moderna’s homework. FDA couldn’t find any receipts. And considering this testing was used to determine how much residual DNA remained in an injectable product given to millions of people? WHERE. IS. THE. VALIDATION⁉️ Show us who checked Moderna’s homework⚠️

NEW DATA: COVID VACCINE INJURY US MILITARY "I am currently tasked with investigating the 55,000 vaccine adverse event reports filed on individuals identified as members of the U.S. Armed Forces, this includes 2544 deaths." "I had one servicemember die of rapid onset and progression of esophageal cancer after COVID vaccination and one in which a student pilot who had never been COVID positive, who experienced sudden cardiac death at the controls of a helicopter during a training flight." "I have first hand knowledge of over 29 deaths of service members after vaccination with the COVID-19 vaccines." "While establishing definitive causation in every case is complex, the existence of these safety signals, combined with known risks such as myocarditis in young males, means that claims of vaccine-related harm cannot be dismissed as having no medical basis." July 2026 Affidavit, Theresa M. Long M.D., LTC, U.S. ARMY MEDICAL CORPS Senior Medical Military Advisor to the HHS Secretary The affidavit was filed as part of an 80 page motion seeking summary judgment in long standing litigation over claims about COVID vaccinations and vaccine injury in the US military. Long's testimony in support @IvanRaiklin is part of a defamation lawsuit brought by Dr. Terry Adirim who had been a senior Pentagon health official advising on the COVID mandate. Critics call the claims "dubious" and "unsubstantiated."

🚨 SPECIAL INVESTIGATION 🚨 Is residual DNA a hidden adjuvant in vaccines? We’ve heard plenty about residual DNA in mRNA Covid vaccines. But there’s a much bigger story. Many vaccines and monoclonal antibodies are made using recombinant DNA technology — including Gardasil, flu, Hep B and RSV products. So what happens to the residual DNA left behind by manufacturing? And what if removing that impurity compromises the product’s performance? That may prove to be the vaccine industry’s dirty little secret.

The FDA has already approved DNA sequences as vaccine adjuvants — deliberately added to stimulate the immune system. A major 2023 review describes scientists exploiting DNA-sensing pathways such as TLR9 and cGAS–STING to develop next-generation adjuvants.

Interesting how quickly “censorship” becomes a First Amendment emergency when NIH funding is threatened. Yet the same scientific and medical establishment has little appetite for challenging publishers that censor topics and only allow for acceptable viewpoints. It's funny how financial incentives have a way of determining which censorship is worth fighting.
Researchers have filed a new lawsuit alleging that the U.S. National Institutes of Health is illegally censoring research grants. scim.ag/46uyen6

This is an important and very welcome step.
(1/2): For years, a division within NIAID hasn’t been operating like the rest of NIH. We have put forward a proposal to rectify this, which is now open for public comment. Most of NIH’s institutes and centers conduct research through an intramural program (with researchers employed by NIH) and fund external grants through an extramural program. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease’s Division of Clinical Research (DCR), however, has operated outside NIH’s typical processes for oversight and accountability. Its unusual structure allowed former senior officials to use the DCR to run special projects (including work at international sites and in BSL4) with little transparency. Under our proposal, the DCR’s operational, regulatory, clinical and oversight functions will be broken up and realigned with existing offices and leadership structures. This preserves what is good and aligned with the NIH mission while fixing the structural problems.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) has issued a 10-page memo signaling a retreat from its traditional role of giving grants to individual researchers to pursue their best ideas and to train the next generation of scientists. Instead, the memo makes clear, NSF will devote the bulk of its resources to addressing the research priorities of President Donald Trump and his administration, many of them technology focused. scim.ag/4ipE1kY

Exclusive: The National Institutes of Health is preparing to launch a clinical research program to study people who believe they were harmed by vaccines, including COVID-19 vaccines. Some researchers say the new efforts will be a welcome addition to an area that has not received much attention to date. Others worry the program could become politicized by groups seeking to present vaccines as unsafe. scim.ag/46YX3aQ
