  1. Lucas Waldron and Patricia Callahan take a long, sobering look at what may well happen down the road if RFKJr gets his way with vaccines and vaccine makers stop making vaccines readily available for the American market. Their modeling of a possible trajectory looks at polio, measles, rubella, and diphtheria.

    The Horrors That Could Lie Ahead if Vaccines Vanish
    Researchers at Stanford University modeled how many people could die or be disabled in 25 years if vaccines for #polio, #measles, #rubella or #diphtheria were no longer available.
    When immunization rates drop plagues from the past can come roaring back, as measles has in American communities where parents decided not to vaccinate their children.

  13. Stanley Plotkin's contribution to vaccinology has been so significant that the field's textbook, now in its eighth edition, carries his name. But as vaccines increasingly come under attack, Plotkin, now 93, fears he knows what's to come: many children will die from preventative diseases.

    "All I can say is that I'm beginning to regret having lived so long — because we're going downhill," he says. He worries that people have become more susceptible to anti-vaccine misinformation because they have not experienced the misery that childhood diseases once caused — and that things will not get better until outbreaks cause anguish once again.

  14. I went to the GP's today, and got a Measles-Mumps-Rubella (MMR) booster on the spot (and free). Anyone born after 1966 without a documented second dose is eligible.

    You can do immunity measurement first, if you want (and pay), but that would only give you a rare “you don't need it”. Otherwise, it's just easy to get it.

  15. @ai6yr This article says to get the Measles vaccination. But, it omits "why" Dr Oz had a change of mind to start advocating for it, and contradicting his boss.

    Given history, one can suspect that someone in his immediate family has/had measles with severe symptoms, which is the only reason these bastard billionaires will ever give a shit: It happened to one of theirs.

    Fuck these guys, but get the vaccine, please.

  17. #CDC today updated its adult, child #immunization schedules to apply individual-based decision-making to #COVID19 vaccination and recommend that #toddlers receive protection from #chickenpox as standalone #immunization Rather than in Combination with #measles, #mumps, and #rubella vaccination. CDC states "Informed consent is back" Translation - non #vaccinated #children jeopardize the #publichealth of the entire #US #population - #adults #elderly #ill #ImmunoCompromised #chronicillness #cancer

  18. Former surgeons general condemn Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s health policies – The Hill

    Former surgeons general: RFK Jr. actions ‘endangering the health of the nation’

    by Max Rego – 10/08/25 3:57 PM ET

    Six former surgeons general criticized Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a Tuesday op-ed in The Washington Post.

    Editor’s Note: I recommend reading also the WP article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/10/07/surgeons-general-rfk-jr-robert-kennedy/

    “The actions of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are endangering the health of the nation,” the group said. “Never before have we issued a joint public warning like this. But the profound, immediate and unprecedented threat that Kennedy’s policies and positions pose to the nation’s health cannot be ignored.”

    The former surgeons general behind the op-ed were Vivek Murthy, Jerome Adams, Richard Carmona, David Satcher, Joycelyn Elders and Antonia Novello. Murthy, Elders and Satcher were appointed by Democratic presidents, while Adams, Carmona and Novello were appointed by Republican presidents. 

    In their op-ed, the former surgeons general said that under Kennedy, the “foundations of our nation’s public health system have been undermined.” They specifically criticized the HHS secretary’s longstanding claims that childhood vaccines are linked to autism, his handling of measles outbreaks throughout the country, his recommendation against pregnant women taking Tylenol and his upheaval of a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) vaccine advisory panel. 

    In June, Kennedy removed all 17 members of the CDC Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), saying it was necessary to restore trust in vaccines. Kennedy has since replaced those panel members with individuals who have expressed skepticism about the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine.

    The ACIP’s recommendations must be approved by the CDC director before being implemented. In August, Kennedy removed former Director Susan Monarez from the post after just weeks on the job. Monarez later said she refused to preapprove the committee’s decisions.

    On Monday, the CDC accepted the ACIP’s recommendation that individuals receive the COVID-19 vaccine after consulting with a health provider. Later in the day, acting CDC Director Jim O’Neill called on vaccine manufacturers to split up the measles, mumps and rubella vaccine into three separate shots, taking the same stance as President Trump.

  20. Dr. #SusanMonarez raised concerns about a #vaccine panel that will meet on
    Thurs, after #Health Secy #RFKJr fired all 17 members in June, eventually appointing others to take their place. “There is real risk that recommendations could be made restricting access to
    #vaccines for #children & others in need without rigorous scientific review,” she said. The panel will discuss #Covid vaccines, the #hepatitisB vaccine & the #measles, #mumps, #rubella [#MMR] & #varicella vaccines.

  25. Florida's surgeon general didn't look at the numbers before announcing his decision to ending vaccine mandates in his state. Scientists have. If childhood vaccinations in the U.S. drop by half, a Stanford study predicted 51.2 million cases of measles, 9,9 million cases of rubella, 4.3 million cases of polio and 200 cases of diphtheria over 25 years, all of which would lead to millions of hospitalizations, thousands of cases of paralysis and brain damage, and 159,200 vaccine-preventable deaths. Here's more from @CNN.

  26. Hey MAGA: do you realize that when Blue states come together to make vaccines available and Red states ban them, you’ll be dead and we won’t?

  27. I'm so gonna NOT FEEL SORRY for any families in Florida that get #measles, #mumps, #rubella, #whoopingcough, #flu, #covid, or anything else that could've been prevented with a #vaccine! Then again, they'll all die out soon... oh, well!

    #Florida is SO STUPID!

    ps: I also CANNOT WAIT for another state (California?) to deny travel through or residency in it to ANYONE residing in a state with no vaccine mandates OR in a state actively discouraging vaccines!
