The UK government has just cut our ACCESS project entirely. It’s devastating news, at a time when access to contraception & family planning are more vital than ever. @IPPF warns that millions of vulnerable women and girls will pay the price: ippf.org/news/ippf-warns-mil… @LSHTM #ukaid
it has been a dispiriting few months in the academic machine - but reading my students' brilliant & critical & thoughtful essays (written in global near-collapse, no less!!!) makes me so optimistic for the future of epi 🥺

In a biostats class, a professor taught us that our data is often people who fought for their lives and lost and we should respect the weight of that. So f*ck a strip. Here are the names of people who lost their lives to police violence in 2021.

New article in @socscimed – does national health Insurance offer financial protection to TB patients in Ghana? Analyses led by @debpedrazzoli suggest @NHIS_Ghana will not be enough, additional social protection is needed. Free download here authors.elsevier.com/c/1ctpg… (till May 30th)
see also: race, SEP, literally any social construct 👀
(but my takeaway isn't 'don't control for gender' but instead to ask whether gender is acting as an effect modifier vs a confounder for each particular Q, no?)

weird that in the UK class is treated as identity and not as combo of social/economic/cultural capital -- like when tenured home-owning professors tell me they're working class and I'm sat there like ok hun xo

Thoughtful article by @tweetingtony on the #necropolitics of COVID-19 and the #StateOfAcceptance:
"certain bodies become marked as disposable and thus contribute to a state of acceptance wherein certain bodies are marked as acceptable losses"

People who use drugs have higher rates of tuberculosis regardless of their #HIV status. Yet, most #TB programmes don't include #HarmReduction
Tuberculosis must be integrated into harm reduction services, and vice versa.

We analyzed data on 1,127 killings by police in 2020 - finding alternative responses to mental health, traffic violations and other non-violent situations could substantially reduce fatal police violence nationwide. A thread (1/x). policeviolencereport.org
