"The scale of what is happening in Ukraine has no precedent... It seems to me that those in leadership positions at the Pentagon should pay very close attention to this threat — and to the countermeasures.” We must urge policymakers to carefully consider the best next steps to better address infectious disease as it relates to national security. nytimes.com/2026/10/31/scien…

There is an overwhelming sense that the U.S. will soon lose its hard-won measles elimination status, according to CDC staffers and public health groups at a meeting this week. nbcnews.com/health/health-ne…

We're reporting only a fraction of measles cases in the US; some estimates put it as low as 20% in states like PA. This outbreak is much larger than what's reported and is spilling into highly vulnerable communities like babies and pregnant women. We will lose our Measles elimination status this month, and it will take years of responsible public health management to get it back.

As physicians, we’ve spent our careers giving parents the information they need to protect themselves and their families. As former members of Congress, we’ve helped our party promote sound public health policies. But right now, both of those commitments are being tested. @RepLarryBucshon @michaelcburgess READ: statnews.com/2026/10/19/meas…

Measles was supposed to be a disease of the past. The science worked. The vaccines worked. But misinformation is reversing decades of public health progress. Pennsylvania is now experiencing the worst measles outbreak in 30 years with 1,200+ cases and 6 deaths. The MMR vaccine is safe, effective and the most powerful tool we have. ow.ly/ABie50ZYyFF #Measles #PublicHealth #Vaccines #MMR
