More of this please! Buying a book, chat about vaccines. Celebrating a birthday? Vaccines!

Going to church/temple/other? Vaccines reflect humanity at it’s greatest and protect our most vulnerable. To avoid them is to harm others.
Pre-takeoff announcements on this domestic flight in Brazil include a pro-vaccine message. "Vaccines save lives."

Viruses spread fast, but disinformation spreads like wildfire in a drought. And wouldn’t you know, RFK Jr.’s handpicked ACIP just built it a stage with spotlights.

This week, FDA officials announced a policy that would severely limit who can get updated Covid-19 vaccines. Unless we act now, this will roll back decades of progress to protect lives with vaccines.

Autism is not a disease.
Autism is not an epidemic.
Autism is a multifactorial genetic-based neurological condition.
And it’s not caused by vaccines or nebulous “environmental toxins.”

RFK Jr. said in his Fox News OpEd that “Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses”.

The best diet in the world will not prevent infection if you are unvaccinated and sharing air with someone who has measles.
