ACIP votes to end universal HBV birth dose for newborns. The consequence? Prepare to see a reversal of our rates of chronic liver disease and liver cancer as more children are left unprotected.
The birth dose has an up to 90% efficacy rate of protecting newborns from Hep B, which is incurable.

They have designed this year to crush feds. We can’t let them do this. It is so very hard. But quitting lets them win. And the American people will suffer more than they already are.
How many think they’ll make it another 3 years?
After the 43-day shutdown, morale is shattered. Feds report chaos, crushing backlogs, pay delays, tech failures, resentment between teams, and a surge in people retiring or quitting. Nearly half say they’re reconsidering federal service entirely.
