Under Texas’ Abortion Ban, Where a Woman Lives Can Determine Her Risk of Developing Sepsis Our first-of-its-kind data analysis found that a seismic split emerged in how medical institutions in Texas' two largest metro areas, Houston and Dallas, treated miscarrying patients — and in their…

The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion.

In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose 29%.

Headline: Wisconsin Supreme Court's liberal majority strikes down 176-year-old abortion ban.

Some good news, in case you missed it:

The Wisconsin Supreme Court RESTORED ABORTION RIGHTS across the state by striking down a 176-year-old abortion ban.

This comes after years of work to break the court's conservative majority.

We CAN win.

Men sure love to mansplain abortion bans

“There’s an exception for the life of a mother!”

“No one is being arrested for a miscarriage!”

“It’s fear mongering!”

No. Abortion bans kill. They cause unnecessary delays in care. Criminal charges have been laid for pregnancy loss. It’s all about control

The Effects of Newly Changed Guidance on COVID-19 Shots During Pregnancy This Medical News article discusses the ramifications of the decision to drop the CDC’s recommendation that pregnant people get immunized against COVID-19.

US HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr's decision to remove #COVID19 #vaccines for healthy children and pregnant women from the CDC's immunization schedule has sparked criticism for undermining public trust and vaccination efforts.

Northern Arizona resident dies from plague A northern Arizona resident has died from pneumonic plague. Health officials say it's the first recorded death in the area from pneumonic plague since 2007.

First death from the plague since 2007. The plague is the last thing we need while we have an HHS Secretary who has no understanding of infectious diseases.

We do have a moral obligation to our children- to protect them from preventable illness and suffering. For decades, safe and effective vaccines have lived up to that promise, saving millions of lives. Undermining trust in vaccines doesn’t make America healthy again. It needlessly puts the people we’re meant to protect in harm’s way.

#MedSky: are we ok with this??? It's bad enough when people like RFK Jr spread vaccine misinformation, but when a physician deliberately sells COVID vaccines to kids & then administers SALINE, that needs full prosecution! #VaccinesWork

Just when you thought the measles outbreak was horrible. . .pneumonic PLAGUE is back.

FDA approves powerful HIV drug that nearly eliminated spread in clinical trials The twice-yearly injectable drug’s potential could be compromised by the Trump administration’s dramatic cuts to HIV-prevention infrastructure in the U.S.

RFK Jr. Orders Search for New Measles Treatments Instead of Urging Vaccination Decades of research have turned up no miracle treatment for measles, but studies show the M.M.R. shot is 97 percent effective in preventing the disease.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion.

Two decades on, it has generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more.

If you want to boost the economy, funding science is one of the best things you could do.

Montana has a measles outbreak with its first cases in 35 years. Here's what you should know New Mexico, Indiana, Kansas, Ohio, Oklahoma and Texas have active measles outbreaks and U.S. measles cases have topped 700 as of Friday.

All avoidable.

Millions of U.S. measles cases forecast over 25 years if shots decline Measles, once virtually wiped out in the United States, could become commonplace again if declining vaccination rates continue, a new model shows.

Breaking news: The United States faces millions of measles cases over the next 25 years if vaccination rates for the disease drop 10 percent, according to new research published Thursday.

Since we can’t rely on the HHS, CDC, or FDA to say it, I will:

MAKE SURE YOU ARE VACCINATED AGAINST MEASLES. GET YOUR MMR.

The measles surge in the southwest is now the SINGLE LARGEST OUTBREAK since 2000 and the United States is now at the tipping point for the return of ENDEMIC measles.

In some measles cases, the virus does not go away entirely, but rather it hides dormant in the brain. Then, some 7-10 years later, neurological symptoms appear, and the incurable progression of SSPE begins, almost always fatal. Surviving victims are so rare they are written up as case studies.

Scientists Find Measles Likely To Become Endemic in the US Over Next 20 Years A new study forecasts more than 850,000 measles cases over the next 25 years if US vaccination rates stay the same. Millions of infections are possible if rates drop.

Gonorrhea has been eliminated by the CDC! Oops...I mean gonorrhea TESTING. What could possibly go wrong???

Dear Texas Lawyers: do parents of kids who did not get MMR vaccine but took cod liver oil or Vitamin A to prevent measles based on HHS Secretary RFK Jr 's advice BUT then got measles AND liver damage have grounds to sue him or the US government???

School-age child dies in Texas measles outbreak; health chief Kennedy visits family Many people opposed to vaccines argue vaccination should be a personal choice.

A second child with measles has died in Texas, state officials said, in an outbreak of the childhood disease that has resulted in nearly 500 cases in Texas and has spread across 22 states reut.rs/42jrJkf

CDC buries measles forecast that stressed the need for vaccinations • Alabama Reflector The nation’s top public health agency said vaccination was a "personal" decision, a shift in its long-standing messaging about vaccines.

Via @propublica.org: Leaders at the Centers for Disease Control ordered staff last week not to release their experts’ assessment that found the risk of catching measles is high in areas near outbreaks where vaccination rates are lagging, according to internal records reviewed by ProPublica.

Following comments about treating measles by Donald Trump's health secretary in a Fox News interview, parents are inadvertently poisoning their children and giving them liver damage.
