The AAP and more than 40 organizations are alarmed that the CDC is promoting the outdated, disproven idea that vaccines cause autism. We’re calling on the CDC to return to its long history of promoting evidence-based information to protect Americans’ health. Read the full statement: bit.ly/3XILwry

ACOG reaffirms that acetaminophen is safe for managing pain and fever during pregnancy. No reputable studies support suggestions like those in HHS’s recent announcement linking acetaminophen use in pregnancy to autism; in fact, high-quality studies show no such risk. https://bit.ly/47Wxc59

Are we not aware that the health department can not pay farm workers? Imagine the optics of paying migrant workers! Or not aware that farm workers losing even a single paycheck is devastating? CDPH guidance is sound here.
