This is an excellentent piece debunking the notion that pediatricians have financial motivation to vaccinate kids and the impact that this particular lie has on children’s’ health and the field of pediatrics.

Plus likely decreasing vaccination rates.
Hard to see any outcomes of this that don’t involve harming or killing children.

While policy change is important, what is needed most is communal solidarity & accountability.
A commitment that won't be dependent on if an issue directly impacts us or our loved ones.
Please give if you are able🧡

“Pediatricians like me come to our job w/the conviction that children should not die — that whatever might hurt or kill them should be prevented,whether through car seat laws,safety tops on med bottles,pediatric cancer research or,above all, routine vaccination.”
