The fact that an entire generation of pediatricians has almost zero exposure to the horror of Epiglottitis is a testament to the benefit of the HiB vaccine.
Day 2 of vaccine preventable disease education. Don’t forget that we don’t need these to come back… #vaccineswork #MedSky #PedSky

“When Father Myers got up at Mass and told everyone to pray for Ben and Barbara’s daughter, MaryAnne, we thought you were never coming home again,” my sister Jan would say, wide-eyed and animated.

Joe Biden might have been old, but his administration and its officials knew what the National Nuclear Security Administration was responsible for and never fired those in charge of managing our nuclear stockpile “by accident.”

Today is Retraction Day, when we observe the anniversary of the retraction (Feb. 2, 2010) of the fraudulent paper that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. 🧪#medsky
![This is the front page of a fraudulent research article that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. The word "RETRACTED" is written across it in large red letters.
Wikipedia: On 28th February 1998, a fraudulent research paper by physician Andrew Wakefield and twelve coauthors, titled "Ileal-Lymphoid-Nodular Hyperplasia, Non-Specific Colitis, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder in Children", was published in the British medical journal The Lancet.[1] The paper falsely claimed causative links between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and colitis and between colitis and autism. The fraud involved data selection, data manipulation, and two undisclosed conflicts of interest.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sox6xar4qdc3ujhi5h4whtlh/bafkreiazjyxk6foryp6lzxcqbls62uaokwhjrjmnzg5uqpdimg77xrt26a@jpeg)

NYTimes adding insult to injury in this tragedy. The “treatment” was for autism, which isn’t a thing, and was being done by someone with no medical training who charges cash for expensive bogus therapies. And now a 5-year-old is dead because of the grift.
A fire started inside an oxygen-rich hyperbaric chamber at a Michigan medical center on Friday, causing it to explode, killing a 5-year-old boy who was inside receiving treatment, officials said.
Hyperbaric Chamber Explosion Kills 5-Year-Old Boy
The boy was receiving medical treatment at a Michigan medical center when the chamber exploded on Friday, the authorities said. His mother was also injured.

Pete Hegseth admitted to the Senate that he paid $50,000 (!!!) to silence a "Jane Doe" who accused him of rape.
But at his hearing last week, he said he was “falsely accused."
More questions than answers. We can't rush his vote and trust him with our national security.
