@MarionDonnelly @luckytran I'd say this as a matter of #PublicHealth.

I guess having Pre-Boomers die of old age is the problem because many #Boomers got raised by #Polio #survivors flexing the #trauma of loosing up to 75% of their classmates by threatening to disown them if they didn't #Vaccinate their children!

TWiV 1210: Clinical update with Dr. Daniel Griffin week 17.04.2025

56000 confirmed fired federal workers. More than third of the cuts target health services, aiming to deliberately disrupt disease control and research as well as national and global human health services. #fascism #stopfascism #trump #musk #hostiletakeover

The second child died last week of measles. This makes two children and an adult (all unvaccinated) dying of measles within a few weeks, which equals the total number of measles deaths in the last 25 years.
Absolutely unnecessary and preventable deaths. Vaccinate!

RT @EckerleIsabella@x.com: »My opinion & I will die on this hill: The current anti-vaccine movement will have a major impact on women and will reverse women's rights. When women have to produce extra babies because 1 in 5 will not survive, they will not have energy or time to fight for equality anymore.

While being pregnant, postpartum, caring for many children, caring for a sick child, grieving deceased ones & fearing their siblings dying as well, women will be drained of energy & will not fight oppression. Without vaccines, a lot of healthy children will not survive their early childhood period.

In addition, not providing vaccines will disproportionally affect vulnerable children: While many perfectly healthy children will die, those with underlying conditions are even at higher risk. Not protecting them will shorten their life. We've seen it already during Covid.

I just want to stress this: Most of society is not aware in which a luxury situation vaccines has put parents in only the last few decades, that is, not seeing your young children die. If you don't believe me, read books about the polio period, or visit an old graveyard. It's all there.«

TWiV 1208: clinical update week 10.04.2025

Vaccines DO NOT prevent infection! Vaccines prevent death and severe illness. Also vaccinated people don't turn into a superspreader mutation factory if infected.If any, they shed magnitudes less viruses than unvaccinated folks.
Vaccinate!

Getting a little radical around here.

I mean, really? I'm getting old (fed up) enough to put (political?) bumper stickers on my car?

My mom is still all "politics are private." And she's very proud of being an independent - with implied criticism that I'm not.

Well, I am. I have voted different parties. However, I refuse to back people who are anti-science, anti-democracy, anti-free speech, anti-human rights, and anti-rule of law.

It's past time to speak out.

(My two cents on a side note: Your freedom ends where the freedom of others begins. Vaccinate. Mask up. Protect others. If you are concerned something could cause autism, THEN STOP SMOKING, goddamit! 😡)

Paul Offit explains the use of the term 'medical freedom' in the context of public health and vaccination.

#Measles arrives in #Kansas, spreads quickly in #undervaccinated counties
In the 2023–2024 school year, rates of kindergartners with their two shots stood at 83% in the Hugoton school district and 80 percent in the Moscow school district, according to state data. Those rates are significantly below the 95% threshold needed to block the onward community spread of measles—one of the most infectious viruses known to humankind arstechnica.com/health/2025/03
Who needs a bioweapon when we don't #vaccinate?
