Acetaminophen doesn’t cause autism.
Vaccines don’t cause autism.
Science isn’t about how anyone feels.

Primary care doctors have enough on our plate. We don't need or want this change.

In case you’re wondering, it’s barely fall & our children’s hospital is already almost always full with kids boarding in the ER.

And the pediatric workforce is stretched thin.

Our system does not have the capacity to care for the influx of vaccine preventable diseases that is coming.

Given separately but at the same visit so no extra visit, just two pokes instead of one.

Important reminder: it is currently the recommendation to give the MMR and Varicella vaccines separately at the 12-15 month visit. The combo can be given if parents prefer, after a discussion about risks/benefits, but this whole discussion is performative. #ACIP

Monarez: "He did not have any data or science to point to. In fact, we got into an exchange where I suggested I would be open to changing childhood vaccine schedules if the evidence or science were supportive. He responded there was no science or evidence associated w/the childhood vaccine schedule"

Chart showing the VAERS reports after the HPV vaccine was released. Initially there were a lot of reports but they came down very quickly, despite the addition of boys receiving the vaccine starting in 2009. Shows how the database captures a lot of noise that isn’t true safety signals.

During the RFK Jr hearing Sen Daines referenced a study showing that mifepristone is much more dangerous than the FDA has said. As per usual, it turns out to be a study that a) was done by an anti-abortion group, and b) was widely reported in right wing media but ignored elsewhere.
