New study in JAMA. Modelling shows that at current state-level vaccination rates, measles may become endemic again in the USA. If rates continue to decline, ditto for rubella, poliomyelitis and diphtheria, leading to many preventable hospitalisations and deaths.

In 1985 in Africa 25 vaxxed children were compared with 25 unvaxxed for 5 years.
In the vaxxed group one got mild measles while 4 had suspected whooping cough.
Among the unvaxxed 11 got measles leading to 2 deaths & an unvaxxed child died of tetanus.
This is why we don't do these studies anymore.

Ernest Hemingway once said,
“In our darkest moments, we don’t need advice.”
What we truly need is the power of human connection: a quiet presence, a gentle touch, or the smallest gesture that reminds us we’re not alone.

Just any fyi, if you want to help a mutual get their news, message, or just a cute thing out into the bluesky, reshare them. Hearting them doesn't do this because there is no algorithm here. Get into the habit of reposting to boost others.
