Trump’s executive order is NOT legislation. Though the executive order promotes more misinformation about vaccines, nothing has changed about the availability of childhood vaccines. For evidence-based guidance, please follow American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations.

ASH, alongside partners, is raising the visibility of the critical role the CDC’s Division of Blood Disorders and Public Health Genomics plays in providing the technical expertise, data, and public health leadership across hematology. ow.ly/KlR550ZhmTc #Fight4Hematology

NIH is leading the way in advancing research for sickle cell disease. Dr. Griffin P. Rodgers’ pioneering research helped establish hydroxyurea as the first FDA-approved treatment for sickle cell disease, reducing pain crises, hospitalizations, and mortality worldwide. An innovative stem cell transplant regiment, developed by Dr. Rodgers and collaborators at NIH, has reversed sickle cell disease in many patients. Meanwhile, his colleagues’ innovative work in gene therapy is advancing a possible cure for the disease. We’re proud to celebrate Dr. Rodger’s receipt of the John Phillips Memorial Award for Outstanding Work in Clinical Medicine. bit.ly/4mL9v56

We must TREAT pain in #sicklecelldisease quickly and aggressively. We must STOP measuring pain. We need to measure causes of pain (inflammation, hemolysis, adhesion) to measure the effect of new tx. @US_FDA it’s time to use a new endpoint. #TogetherWeCan pfizer.com/news/announcement…
