I remember during the Covid pandemic walking a strongly anti-vax member of my congregation through our cemetery pointing out how the number of children’s graves plummeted after the 1950’s. Why? Widespread vaccination programs.
Just read more antivaxxer garbage about replacing vaccines with healthy food and exercise to boost immune systems while more babies die of measles.
Vaccinating widely is how we protect Littles too young for vaccines - no exercise will protect them.
WTF with these people

BREAKING: RFKJr directs that the US instantly stop recommending all vaccinations for children. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...
Under RFK Jr., U.S. plans to stop recommending most vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

We are spending $1 trillion every year on the military. That's more than the next NINE nations combined.
Meanwhile, millions lack health care & we have the highest childhood and senior poverty rate of almost any major country.
Congress needs to get its priorities straight.
