Um... let's debunk those wild measles claims...

Measles is known for its characteristic rash, but it can have serious respiratory and neurologic complications that can be fatal.

Medical error is not the "third leading cause of death". This is a lie based on a truly woeful paper.

I've unlocked the piece because apparently this disinformation is now being shared by RFK Jr. and the US federal government. Feel free to share!

If you have been exposed to #measles you can get post-exposure vaccination. Ideally within 72 hours of the exposure. This can help reduce the severity of illness and could even prevent you from developing symptoms at all.
Given exposures in gyms and at airports consider this a free tip.

HHS has apparently sent out an email to all staff telling folks to take an indefinite “pause” in responding to the “HR” email.

Great news (for the moment)
Apparently, this email was sent out to all staff with IC Director and EO meetings for tomorrow.
