Today is #SunscreenDay!
Before enjoying some fun in the sun this weekend, be sure to apply sunscreen of SPF 30 or more to your body 30 minutes prior to going outside. Reapply every 2 hours. https://t.co/6AB8wEP0V4
Have a happy and safe #MemorialDay weekend. #YourBestChance
Before #summer starts, take a minute to check the expiration date on your sunscreen! Sunscreen without an expiration date has a shelf life of no more than three years, but its shelf life is shorter if it has been exposed to high temperatures. https://t.co/XjgT2yE1EO #DontFryDay

#ASCO19 is only a week away. What do you think will be the hottest topic discussed in Chicago this year?
Great thread on how identity can override critical thinking👇 #Lyme
A thread. Ten years ago, critical thinking peaked. The organised skepticism movement was successfully imported from USA to UK (mainly by me) and the UK media was getting pretty good at not giving platforms to quacks.
Europe has been curing #Lyme infections since at least 1951 but many fake Lyme activists are promoting an absurd conspiracy theory alleging that the US government spread the (curable, not easy to get) infection as a bioweapon in the 1970s 🙄
Fun fact: Europe has been curing Lyme infection since at least 1951. 👊 Yes, Lyme disease is curable, which is why "chronic Lyme" is not a thing. Also most people in chronic Lyme groups never had Lyme in the first place or any of the myriad "coinfections". https://t.co/KfIufTYWNT
Practitioners who market themselves as "integrative" and "functional" endanger public health in more ways than one
Due to the internet, the fake chronic Lyme diagnosis manifests where real #Lyme is rare or non-existent. Conspiracy theorists then claim a CDC cover up. A new private study shows this is absurd because prevalence in dogs is closely linked to CDC numbers. https://t.co/h8yxGi9G6A
Dr. Eugene Shapiro is the pediatric infectious disease expert who wrote an @AmerAcadPeds review on Lyme disease. Chronic Lyme conspiracy theorists have launched a petition to slime him while promoting a child abusing quack. https://t.co/HG4tGqhnMV
