Florida Man-in-Chief Dr. Lapado admits he didn't study the impact of ending routine vaccination requirements. Ya know who did? Real scientists. Including Dr. Yvonne Maldonado, who Sec. Kennedy recently FIRED from the CDC's vaccine advisory committee. Answer: This is dangerous.

My resignation letter from CDC. Dear Dr. Houry, I am writing to formally resign from my position as Director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), effective August 28, 2025, close of business.

Do people really think the 200k cap on federal loans will force med schools to lower tuition? There’s no way. Students will have to take out more private loans. Better hope you or a family member have a good credit score.

I’ve been thinking a lot about Murkowski’s vote. It contains, in one action, so much that defines our pathetic political moment: Selfishness: I’m taking care of me and mine, the rest of you can pound sand; Lack of accountability: I know the bill is bad, hopefully someone else

Congressman Derrick Van Orden of Wisconsin’s Third Congressional District has deleted this tweet.

Recent measles outbreaks have many families concerned. This is a stark reminder of the importance of making sure your children are fully vaccinated so they can develop, learn, and thrive. https://t.co/Ie7rASMtPz

Trump’s budget bill is a disaster for public health. It’s the biggest cut to health care in history. 12 million people will lose health insurance. Hundreds of hospitals will close. 1 in 4 nursing homes will close. Millions more families won’t have enough food.

.@RepThomasMassie You have to reject this bill. It will ruin the healthcare landscape in Kentucky. My patients are going to be kicked off of Medicaid. Our state can’t afford to have rural hospitals close.

My response to Secretary Kennedy's statements about me on Fox News today. It's time to set the record straight.

More than 98% of families in this country choose to vaccinate their young children. But now, vaccine policy is being shaped by the small, extreme minority that doesn’t. This decision doesn’t reflect, protect or support families.

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has protected generations of Americans. Now, its credibility is being attacked: https://t.co/in290Ic4x1

None of this should be surprising. RFK Jr. will do everything he can to make sure that all vaccines are no longer mandated and to make vaccines less available, less affordable and more feared. This is only the beginning.

Today's decision is about undermining independent medical expertise and will only further endanger the health of the American public, especially children. https://t.co/SFgjr1ISn6

While today's guidance from @cdcgov allows families to continue to choose the Covid vaccine, how we got here is troubling. Decisions this important should go through trusted, evidence-based processes--not political shortcuts. https://t.co/Oo9w6mF5C6

If they had sent this report to a peer reviewed journal like @NEJM or @JAMA_current The mistakes would have been identified And their claims about the health of America’s children would have been amended to reflect reality This is why peer review is important

FRAUDULENT—RFK Jr’s report on “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) cited completely FAKE studies that do not even exist, & completely misinterprets others. Truly wild. This is the same guy who bypassed all CDC scientists to put out anti vax nonsense. https://t.co/kxdUbhJd2O

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. RT if you're with me.

The move to drop CDC's COVID vaccine rec for pregnant moms ignores the data. Kids <6 months have COVID hospitalization rates similar to 65-74 yr-olds. Maternal vaccination is their only protection. Sensible policies to #MAHA should prioritize both the elderly and infants.

Seatbelts don’t prevent car crashes but they do help protect you if you crash. For some reason, everyone understands this type of conditional protection perfectly well, until we’re talking about a vaccine that prevents severe disease.
