Leading medical groups are urging people to get updated flu and COVID-19 vaccinations this fall, banding together to issue shot guidelines — and highlight the science behind them — saying they hope to ease confusion caused by the Trump administration's changing advice. to.pbs.org/4i9BU4C

People arguing the PA baby the coroner ruled died of measles “shouldn’t count” because she had a terminal genetic condition:
1. That’s a ghoulish take.
2. A terminal diagnosis is not a death certificate. If you have late-stage cancer and die in a car wreck, the wreck still killed you.

The U.S. has now recorded more cases of measles in 2026 than in any other year since the virus was declared eliminated in 2000.
More measles cases have been reported in the past two years than in all the years from 2000 through 2024 combined.

Unfortunately it’s official- The U.S. measles case count for this year has surged past last year's total and now stands at 2,295 - a level that hasn't been seen in 35 years. 😞
1) 6% hospitalization rate = 100+ kids hospitalized
2) $30k+ to investigate each case = $70 million that can’t go to cyclospora outbreaks, chronic disease prevention, etc.
3) 90%+ of cases unvaccinated

The claim that we must slash U.S. childhood vaccinations to "align with peer nations" rests on a false premise. A STAT analysis shows the old U.S. schedule wasn't the extreme outlier officials claimed. And the new pared-down version (now protecting against just 11 diseases) actually covers fewer diseases than all but one of the 20 so-called peer countries cited as justification for the cuts. 🤯👇🏽statnews.com/2026/01/09/chil…

President Trump just repeated his lie that China only builds windmills to export them to "stupid people from the United States, the suckers."
Reality: China has installed by far the most wind turbines of any country and is installing more of them far faster than any other country.

Mifepristone is a safe, essential medicine that so many women depend on in some of the hardest moments of their lives. When access to this care is taken away, the need doesn’t vanish. It just becomes harder to meet—and far more dangerous.
Last year, while visiting Louisiana to understand how the shifting landscape is affecting our communities, I heard heartbreaking stories from mothers denied treatment during grave crises in their pregnancies and doctors forced to delay care when every minute counts.
Friday’s ruling is a blow to families across the country, who suffer when women are stripped of the ability to make decisions about their own health and futures.
Everyone deserves health care that’s guided by science, not politics.

It takes a special kind of anti-science to argue against the Gardasil vaccine.
I have zero allegiance to the manufacturer—but the evidence is clear: it prevents HPV infection and reduces cancer risk at the population level. That’s not marketing. That’s data.
Opposing it isn’t some edgy contrarian stance—it’s advocating against a proven cancer prevention tool.
I genuinely struggle to understand the anti position. At some point, you have to ask: what outcome are you actually rooting for?

FALSE.
It’s striking to see the Secretary position himself as an authority on infectious diseases while misrepresenting basic virology.
Infection with #Varicella (the virus that causes chickenpox) leads to lifelong latency in the dorsal root ganglia. With age, stress, or immunosuppression, the virus can reactivate as Herpes Zoster.
This is a well-established biological process and has nothing to do with #vaccination.

US troops are not in Germany to protect Germany. They’re there because the US needs bases to conduct operations beyond the North American continent. If Trump withdraws them, he will harm the United States, not Germany.
It’s absurd how many Americans fail to grasp this.

A reporter reminded President Trump yesterday that he’d said the night prior that the US might be better off not making a deal with Iran.
Trump said “I didn’t say that.”
He’d said it the night prior. On camera. cnn.com/2026/05/03/politics/…
