Access to vaccines is not a privilege — it is a human right. In @statnews.com today, Stefan Peterson and I write about using a human rights-based approach to deal with vaccine denialism and the return of measles, whooping cough and diphtheria www.statnews.com/2025/11/12/c...

Archie says happy #caturday from his perch (he didn’t mind me cat sitting yesterday).

This is a really remarkable piece of writing and in its particulars it describes so, so many people

Will we be able to save lives when the next pandemic comes? Apparently no.

Tylenol doesn’t cause autism. Vaccines don’t cause autism. Starvation and malnutrition are far bigger threats to the health of children than any of the distractions Trump and RFK Jr want to point you towards. You want to protect kids? Demand they fund SNAP. Don’t let people starve.

The pacing of childhood vaccines is based on the times when vaccines will work best with a child’s immune system. To learn more about receiving multiple vaccines in one doctor’s visit, visit our website or have a conversation with your pediatrician. www.aap.org/en/news-room...

My husband is an elected official and they tackled him to the ground without cause and detained him for nearly 8 hours without access to a lawyer. They haven’t “crossed the line” because there is no line.

I wrote a thing about how this split the MMR up into monovalents is bullshit that Andrew Wakefield cooked up. It will be used to strip access to the MMR. The MAHA movement continues to destroy public health. open.substack.com/pub/rasmusse...

Newborns have pencil-thin airways that can swell shut because of pertussis. Moms can get vaccinated while pregnant to protect babies until they get their first pertussis vaccine at 2 months

Every few months now I re-read this "Who Goes Nazi?" piece from 1941 and am blown away by how it captures the people we are dealing with 80 years later. harpers.org/archive/1941...

Someone explain to me how insurance companies can just down code our bills for higher level care based on diagnosis without even reviewing the documentation. What an absolute load of crap. Aetna and Cigna truly suck.

A long but must-read summary of #autism - hint, it has nothing to do with Tylenol or vaccines….. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/24/o...

Deafness. Congenital anomalies. Intellectual disability. Miscarriages. Seems like those are things to be avoided. And 100% preventable by the MMR vaccine. #vaccineswork

First session of the day is learning how to prevent food allergies by the one and only Dave Stukus (@AllergyKidsDoc on IG). Say what you want about the ills of social media, but I have learned so much by following him. Stay tuned! #AAP2025

You would think we would want to do something about a condition that kills 7 kids per day. Thoughts and prayers are not public heath interventions for #gunviolence It’s time for #gunsense legislation and legislators. Need @drannieandrews.com in the senate! #AAPNCE25

It’s almost like #vaccineswork.

“The long history of trying to ‘cure’ or eliminate autism has been a history of terrible abuse and dangerous sham treatments." I spoke to @autisticadvocacy.org's Greg Robinson and @drstevenkapp.bsky.social about the awful autism presser yesterday. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

These attacks on vaccines, tylenol, fluoridation of water, masks, etc is to keep everyone so distracted that nobody has the energy to ask - why are so many lacking access to medical care? - why is gun violence #1 cause of death in kids? - why is life expectancy falling? - why are meds unaffordable?

Anti-vaccine activists often “elevate one flawed study, ignore millions of children in rigorous databases, manufacture doubt,” said @jakescottmd.bsky.social

This is the summary of the clown show that is the ACIP.

A primer on vaccine preventable illnesses from me, a pediatrician. Because we are about to find out some things.

The response to any shooting shouldn’t be to encourage more violence. It should be to implement actual policies to prevent further shootings. #gunsense #publichealth

Long story but worth the read! “As an advocate and a nurse, I’ve noticed that more often it’s red-pilled, radicalized men who are making the decision to not vaccinate their children.” Yep. This is becoming the new norm.

RFK Jr will be citing a cohort study of only 996 participants, full of unexamined confounding variables, to lie about Tylenol “causing” autism, when a definitive study of 2,480,797 children, complete with sibling control analyses, proves there is no link. Here’s the study:

Fellow parents…the first few weeks back to school is a LOT. Dr. Krugman has excellent advice for figuring out what’s normal- and not during this time of transition, and how everyone (especially adults!) can manage their emotions. Highly recommend! 🚌📚❤️
