Tracy Beth Hoeg has just brought up aluminum and said she won’t get into any “specific health concerns” of aluminum because there are no data.
She should think about that for a minute.

Summary of what happened at Temu ACIP this morning:
As expected, they overturned the 30+ year recommendation for the birth dose of HepB vaccine, which has reduced the incidence of pediatric HepB by 99%.
They provided no credible evidence to support this decision.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer.
The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.
Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

Please make sure you do the following as quickly as possible, especially if you are immunocompromised:
1. Get every vaccine you need
2. Buy some high-quality masks (KF94, KN95 or N95).
These fools that Kennedy just appointed are going to cause the reemergence of vaccine-preventable disease.
