Being asked about crazy inflated numbers by antivaccine groups regarding how vaccines kids get. ANS: we went from vaccinating vs 8 diseases when I was a resident in the 1980s, to 16 diseases today. But of those 16, 11 diseases are combined into just two shots. Breakdowns below:

Dr. @gavinyamey.bsky.social & I highlight the serious risks of the U.S. withdrawing from the WHO,both for American & global health security. When the WHO is supported, the world benefits. In the face of rising infectious & chronic disease threats, we need solidarity, not isolation.

I don’t think they understand that many Latinos and Latinas will STAND UP WITH immigrants (Idontcarethestatus). They are my familia and not by blood.
Some won’t and that is okay. They are more worried about themselves.. it’s human nature to live scared. We all make mistakes.

The number of people who have been forcibly displaced is now more than double the number 10 years ago, and the most since World War II.
MSF teams work alongside people on the move at their points of arrival or during the treacherous journeys they undertake, inside and outside their countries.
