A diagram showing different colored humans. The title reads — There have been 646 measles cases confirmed in the current South Carolina outbreak (as of Jan 20, 2026)
Red human — unvaccinated (563)
Black human — unknown vaccination status (58)
Blue human — partially vaccinated (12)
Green human — fully vaccinated (13)
Receiving both doses of the measles vaccine (MMR vaccine) is 97% effective at preventing measles.
Measles has one of the highest basic reproduction numbers (R₀) of any disease (12 to 18), meaning one infected person can spread it to 12 to 18 others in a fully susceptible population, making it extremely contagious. Need 95% vaccination status to achieve herd immunity. Get vaccinated!!

Two School Districts Sue, Claiming Alaska Is Failing Its Constitutional Obligation to Fund Public Education
The lawsuit points to the effects of the state’s underfunding, including low proficiency-test scores and dangerous building conditions.
NEW: It’s been over a decade since Alaska significantly increased its funding for public education.
Two school districts are now suing the state for what they say is a long-running failure to give students a “sound basic education.”

A guide to what the U.S. Education Department does (and doesn't) do
The department tracks student achievement, manages college financial aid and sends K-12 schools money to support students with disabilities and lower-income communities, among other things.
Wow, many people that are calling for the dismantling of the DOE don’t really understand what they do, it’s important for education advocates to share truth and correct misinformation. This is a good overview to share with others from a non-partisan news source.

Download CDC Guidelines Removed By The Trump Admin
The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
The Trump administration is scrubbing the CDC’s website of documents on reproductive rights issues, sexual health, intimate partner violence, and more.
I'm trying to save them.
You can find the deleted docs at cdcguidelines.com - I'll be adding more over the weekend.

Time will only tell but in this moment, policy states that schools do not have to comply with outing undocumented students. We’re not even supposed to ask about a student’s citizenship status so if we don’t officially have the information, we can’t put them.

The new administration took the CBP One App offline according to the ACLU. This is used to seek asylum in the US.
