I was sufficiently vaccinated against measles in childhood – or so I thought https://www.theguardian.com/wellness/2025/apr/09/measles-vaccination-adulthood #Vaccinesandimmunisation #Infectiousdiseases #Wellactually #Lifeandstyle #Society #Health #MMR
Hahahahahaha...
"Health secretary RFK Jr. endorses the MMR vaccine"
..hahahahahaha
Turns out reports of RFK Junior's Damascene conversion to the #MMR Vaccine were mistaken.
#RFK was in Texas - the nearest Damascus is across the state line in Arkansas...

The Bulwark: #RFK’s #AntiVax Flock Turns on Him for promoting #MMR Vaccine
Buried near the bottom of an #X post about his visit, #Kennedy conceded that the measles vaccine is “the most effective way to prevent the spread of measles.” He also said the government was providing “needed MMR vaccines.”

Do adults need a #measles #MMR booster? An epidemiologist explains who is immune
"There are two special circumstances where the previous recommendations may not hold.
First, if you were vaccinated between 1963 and 1967, one of the measles vaccines available at the time consisted of just proteins from the virus rather than a live, weakened version of it. Researchers soon realized this inactivated, or “killed,” vaccine was less effective and didn’t provide long-term immunity. Unless you know for certain you received the live vaccine, physicians and public health experts recommend that people vaccinated during those years get one dose of the live vaccine at some point.
Second, if you fall into a high-risk group – for example, if you are a health care provider, are traveling internationally or attending college, physicians and public health experts generally recommend getting a second dose if you have only had one."

Has nobody seen #Oppenheimer? The #Apollo mission?
Has no one seen, with century old technology, what we accomplished against diseases like TB, #polio, #malaria, #MMR?
What we lack is courage, imagination, and daring.
Fuck these retrogrades. Fuck them. Fuck their input or opinions.

Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent #measles Two doses of the #MMR #vaccine are 97% effective against measles.

So, as someone who used to work for a New Age newspaper back in the late 90's / early 2000's, I've seen my share of #NewAgeQuackery. And as someone who has looked at studies about #VitaminA and the immune system, and who has been tested for low levels and brought them up, and has seen the results firsthand... All I can say is VITAMIN A IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR AN #MMR SHOT! WTF! Especially with breakthrough cases! Get your shots updated! #MeaslesAreNoJoke and can cause real damage!
