Dr. Kirk Moore had been on trial for five days,
accused of falsifying COVID-19 vaccination cards and throwing away the government-supplied doses.
The Utah plastic surgeon faced up to 35 years in prison if the jury found him guilty
on charges that included conspiracy to defraud the United States.
Testimony had paused for the weekend when Moore’s lawyer called him early one Saturday this July
with what felt to him like unbelievable news.

Pam Bondi Dismissed Charges Against a Surgeon Who Falsified Vaccine Cards. It Emboldened Others With Similar Cases.
A Utah surgeon’s victory in a vaccine fraud case has encouraged other “medical freedom” advocates to consider seeking leniency for similar charges. “This undermines every layer of the system that protects us from infectious disease,” an expert said.

Wow, those Covid vaccinations are pretty expensive if you're young and healthy and want to stay that way eh?
Did it anyway. Suppose I should be glad I still count as young.
Thanks for the profiteering Pfizer, thanks for nothing NHS.

REMINDER: Influenza has everything needed to kill people every year and produce a global pandemic every few decades forever. What keeps it at a low “just the flu” level is vaccination. One thing that kept the most recent surges from being more like 1918 is the CDC. What is left of the CDC is inadequate to that task. https://m…

It is that time of the year for us senior citizens.
Wife and I have received our influenza shots and this weekend our COVID shots are scheduled.
Approximately 23 years ago I went through hell with influenza and complications. I contracted it just before my scheduled vaccination. Major lung infection and I ended up off work for six weeks. I don't remember Christmas that year and for several weeks at the beginning we told everyone they were not allowed to visit just in case …

Modeling the control of West Nile virus using mosquito reduction methods, vaccination of equids, and human behavioral adaptation to the usage of personal protective equipment
West Nile virus (WNV) is a mosquito-borne virus of the genus Flaviviridae circulating between mosquitoes and birds, while humans, equids, and other mammals are dead-end hosts. Several preventive measures are recommended to reduce the WNV burden among different hosts. In this work, we develop a mathematical framework for evaluating the theoretical effectiveness of various WNV control methods in Germany. We consider mosquito reduction methods such as the physical removal and destruction of potent…

For years, Sen. Ron Johnson has been spreading conspiracy theories and misinformation about COVID-19 and the safety of vaccines.
He’s promoted disproven treatments for COVID-19
and claimed, without evidence, that athletes are “dropping dead on the field” after getting the COVID-19 vaccination.
Now the Wisconsin politician is endorsing a book by a discredited doctor promoting an unproven and dangerous treatment for autism and a host of ailments:

Controlling the spread of deception-based cyber-threats on time-varying networks
We study the efficacy of strategies aimed at controlling the spread of deception-based cyber-threats unfolding on online social networks. We model directed and temporal interactions between users using a family of activity-driven networks featuring tunable homophily levels among gullibility classes. We simulate the spreading of cyber-threats using classic Susceptible-Infected-Susceptible (SIS) models. We explore and quantify the effectiveness of four control strategies.

We study the impact of a novel COVID-19 vaccine mandate, targeting graduating high-school students, on first vaccine uptake. In 2021, the State Government of Western Australia (WA) required attendees at "Leavers" -- a large-scale state-supported graduation party held annually in November in a WA regional town -- to be vaccinated. Using administrative data that link date-of-birth (at the month level), school attendance, and first-dose vaccination records, we exploit the strict school-age laws in…
