Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

"Never forget that it only takes one political, economic or religious crisis for women's rights to be put in jeopardy.

Those rights are never to be taken for granted; you must remain vigilant throughout your life."

The man who bribed Gill - Oleh Voloshyn - is part of a much wider network of pro-Russian actors.
