A reminder that before the Trump admin/RFK took over this year, the U.S. had officially declared measles eliminated in 2000.
The measles outbreak in South Carolina is “accelerating” with no end in sight following Thanksgiving and other large gatherings, state health officials say.

Infant botulism as of 11/14: 23 cases, 8 newly identified. All consumed ByHeart baby formula, now recalled.
Sadly ByHeart’s initial recall was limited to just 2 Lot numbers, this may have contributed to additional illnesses.

6/ Last week, Canada lost its WHO elimination status for measles. For anyone who is curious, the U.S.'s status will be reviewed in January. We’ve seen 1,600+ cases, the most since 1990, but elimination status changes depend on sustained transmission of a single strain, not just total cases.

7/ More infant botulism cases have been linked to ByHeart formula, bringing the national total to 23. Of the 85 cases since August, 37 consumed formula at some point, and 20 of those were ByHeart products. This is the first time this bacteria has been found in infant formula.

So let me get this right, Trump’s plan was:
1. Tariff everything to help the economy (it didn’t)
2. Claim consumers aren’t paying tariffs (we are)
3. Panic & roll back food tariffs b/c you created an affordability crisis (we told you)
