…As #HHS secretary, Kennedy’s skepticism of mainstream #science is no longer just outsider rhetoric; it now shapes official federal #policy. His efforts to reframe the #pandemic’s legacy come as the #US battles its worst #measles resurgence in more than three decades — a crisis experts warn is fueled directly by the type of #vaccine #misinformation & institutional distrust #RFKJr amplified during the broadcast. #Trump #PublicHealth #medicine #eugenics #ConspiracyTheories #disinformation #USpol

While many of the #children who became ill were vulnerable to the #virus because their parents opted them out of the #measles #vaccine, local health departments have also reported several cases in babies too young for the shot & people with #health conditions that make them ineligible for the vaccine [they contract the #disease by being exposed to the dummies refusing #vaccination]. #idiocracy #Trump #RFKJr #PublicHealth #science #medicine #ConspiracyTheories #AntiVax #eugenics #disinformation

…Experts said the #Trump admin’s response [to the #measles outbreaks] — which has NOT included ANY national push to increase #vaccination rates — has done the #US no favors. …Dr. Jonathan Temte, a former chair of the #CDC’s #vaccine advisory committee, said∶ “We have seen virtually no national messaging. We’ve seen no ad campaigns.” He added, “I think that really tells us something about their priorities.” #idiocracy #RFKJr #PublicHealth #Health #vaccines #science #medicine #policy #AntiVax

More #measles cases have been reported in the #US in the last 2 years than in all the years from 2000–2024 combined. Reversing course on measles would require a nationwide push to improve #vaccination rates, a prospect that experts said seemed unlikely under the leadership of “Health” Secy #RFKJr. He has halted #funding for #vaccine hesitancy research, downplayed the risks of measles & spearheaded a hunt for evidence that #vaccines are unsafe. #idiocracy #Trump #PublicHealth #science #medicine

#HealthCare "Martha Ann Lillard contracted polio in 1953, two years before the #vaccine helped eliminate cases in the U.S. "She relied on an iron lung for decades, as modern respirators could not meet her breathing needs "Lillard died at age 78 after a struggle with long COVID and the breakdown of her decades-old iron lung."

Martha Lillard, the last US polio patient using an iron lung, dies at 78 This month is Disability Pride Month and July was chosen because it was when the Americans with Disabilities Act was finally signed into law (1990). A number of the activists who helped pass ADA were people who'd been disabled by polio in the days before the vaccine was available (Judy Heumann, Ed Roberts, etc) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GodTgZf5zQY #Vaccine #DisabilityPrideMonth

In case you missed it: getting the #shingles #vaccine lowers your risk of dementia later in live by 20% and even slows the progress of the disease for people already suffering from Alzheimer’s. Shingles itself is awful: painful and even mentally debilitating. So please consider getting the vaccine. https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2025/03/shingles-vaccination-dementia.html

@F3715H@rubber.social @wendythedruid@thistlenfern.org I'm certain it is #merciful "healthcare" to the #unborn preventing them from being #unwanted and #unloved But isn't it interesting that personal #automony only applies when it's not a #vaccine It seems many hypocrites love saying "My Body, My choice" only on the issue of #abortion You should definately abort any #fetus You create... stay Healthy! https://stream.radio.co/sb766dcb88/low The Felicity Station is where the signal, the land, the journey, and the people meet.

#CDC chief blocked a #covid #vaccine study. Now it’s in a top medical journal. The study, which had been slated for publication in March in the CDC’s Morbidity & Mortality Weekly Report, found that the #covid19 vaccine reduced the risk of ER visits & hospitalizations among healthy adults by about half last winter. [And]…the vaccine can help reduce the risk of severe illness in adults even after accounting for immunity from prior #vaccination or infection. #Trump #RFKJr https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/06/23/cdcs-chief-blocked-covid-vaccine-study-now-its-top-medical-journal/

Every country with low #measles #vaccination rates will lose its elimination status sooner or later (and have more sick children and more children dying). #vaccine #vaccines https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736%2826%2900466-6/fulltext

Another excellent article from @drjudystone@mstdn.science at Forbes on the idealogical (and ahistorical) decision by the fool in charge of the US military to remove the requirement for the #flu vaccine. #ID #Vaccine https://www.forbes.com/sites/judystone/2026/04/23/doctors-say-hegseths-flu-vaccine-decision-will-weaken-military-readiness/

A silver lining for #PublicHealth? The #Kent #meningitis outbreaks seems to have reminded some of the importance of the protection provided by #vaccines. #vaccine #vaccination https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/mar/25/kent-meningitis-outbreak-prompts-rush-for-routine-vaccinations-in-england
