Vaccines DO NOT cause autism - there is extensive research showing this. Resurrecting old, discredited, fraudulent work is shameful.

Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.

This is dangerous & disappointing.

The fact that children in 2025 are suffering from diseases that should have been consigned to history is not just a public health failure. It is a moral failure.

Children suffering from diseases that should have been consigned to history is a moral failure. Access to vaccines is a human right.

Freaking go, science.
Go vaccines!
“The COVID-19 mRNA vaccine acts like a siren and activates the immune system throughout the entire body”, including inside the tumour, where it “starts programming a response to kill the cancer”

Mahatma Gandhi wanted us to “Be the change you want to see in the world.” This call from @aoc.bsky.social is just as meaningful - Be the consequence. Reject the perception of inevitability. Every straw feels useless till the final straw, when it all matters again.
🗣️THIS is the message!!

Brava, Congresswoman @aoc.bsky.social!!

The "data" package Secretary Kennedy used to bolster his argument for discontinuing #BARDA funding for #mRNA research doesn't support his argument. @jakescottmd.bsky.social lays it out in a must read for @statnews.com. www.statnews.com/2025/08/13/r...
Kennedy's case against mRNA vaccines collapses under his own evidence
“This isn't scientific disagreement. It's either staggering incompetence or willful misrepresentation,” writes infectious disease physician Jake Scott.
