Before measles vaccines, the disease killed 2.6 million people globally each year. In the U.S. alone, 400–500 died annually, with outbreaks every 2–3 years. Vaccines changed that.

4yo: So <friend's> brother got chickenpox. And <another friend> had chickenpox when she was just one year old!
mom: Oh, that sounds very uncomfortable...
4yo: When I'll get chickenpox, I'll also stay at home.
mom: We got you vaccinated, you don't need to go through chickenpox
4yo: (hugs mom) ohhh, thanks mom!

This kid sees it clearly :-D

Idk if this is true, but I want to share it just in case someone needs to scam their doctor into vaccinating them against polio and this actually works.

@ai6yr Shouldn’t there, kinda, be some quarantining order? Exposure to their contagion isn’t anyone else’s choice, so if you’re choosing to not vaccinate, there should be a limit to your movement… #vaccinate #vaccineswork

Imagine killing off your kid for some cult clout? The thing is, parents like this don’t actually care about their kids. They have them for the welfare benefits or the social capital. By the time they become toddlers they start to get their own personalities, then the parents who want them to be possessions instead of people don’t like them anymore. This is how they get rid of them without going to jail.

“‘I know it's not effective because some family members ended up getting the vaccine, and they got the measles way worse than some of my kids,’ said Hildebrand. ‘The vaccine was not effective.’”

His comments came just one day after burying Daisy and sharing a meal with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who, according to Hildebrand, never directly addressed the vaccine's efficacy during the visit.

New York state travel advisory warns those wanting to visit Ontario: "Measles is only a car ride away! Around 90 per cent of people who are exposed to a person with measles will become infected if they are not vaccinated. Because measles is so contagious, it easily crosses borders.” #travel #measles #vaccines #vaccineswork cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/new

“Through cuts for research funding, censorship of our leading experts, and cancellation of important viral surveillance programs, it is unclear whether we will have the resources necessary to quickly respond to the next outbreaks.”

Okay, #Novavax and #Influenza vaccination at the same time yesterday is ... very noticeable today.

But assuming the summer wave mostly repeats like the last years, now is a good time!

Especially since Novavax expires soon and it's a good heterologous vaccination scheme to mix with the mRNA one in autumn.

(Vaccine protection wanes after 3-6 months. Get safer.)

"According to several people, he will examine any potential links between #vaccines & autism that were debunked long ago."

That's the point... DEBUNKED long ago. No need to waste money and attention now. There's no there there!

As measles breaks out across the country, Donald Trump and Elon Musk cut funding for global vaccination, and appoint a vaccine skeptic to decide vaccine policy.

@Holgersen ja, og hvor havde vi været i dag, hvis ikke der var kommet en Polio vaccine.
Og i lande med stor opbakning til vaccinationer, er man godt på vej til at have udryddet livmoderhalskræft.
