We marched today in Oxford, MI. To remember Justin, Hana, Madisyn, and Tate. And to express urgency and outrage at the gun violence harming our children in so many ways. So impressed with the teens and young adults leading the charge! #wearorange #endgunviolencemichigan #nofuturewithouttoday

1914 is when the first pertussis vaccine was licensed in the US. This makes no sense to me that babies need die in this horrid way. In the 1990s babies lined my pediatric hospital wards, coughing and turning blue when they had pertussis-often lack of access was their reason for not being vaccinated
Two babies have died from whooping cough in Kentucky. Neither they nor their parents had been vaccinated.
The current whooping cough outbreak in the U.S. hasn’t grabbed the media spotlight as much as measles has, but it’s important to update your vaccination if you’re going to be around babies.

This is fiercely on point.
🔥🔥 "you're routinely violating rights of immigrants who may not be citizens, but like it or not, they have statutory rights when residing in America. your agency acts as if laws don't matter; as if the election gave you a mandate to violate laws passed by congress. it did not give you that mandate"

David Geier working for HHS is a hit man, intending to discredit vaccines. This is fraud and waste if ever I’ve seen it.

In cancer care, scientists are designing custom mRNA vaccines based on a patient’s tumor. These teach the immune system to attack cancer cells with specific mutations. Early trials in melanoma, lung, and pancreatic cancer are promising.

mRNA vaccines:
Common fears:
❌ “Changes your DNA” – it doesn’t
❌ “Causes infertility” – no evidence
✅ Rare myocarditis can occur (mostly young males), but it’s usually mild and much less risky than getting COVID itself.
