there are no coincidences. People who peddle anti-vax r doing it to further anti-science & anti-rational ideology- it suits their agenda -to control people with fear. Being a contrarian for the sake of being 1 is d norm in today’s day and age. India cant afford to be anti-science
Thiru @svembu, I urge you to delete your post; you are being devastatingly reckless and pose a threat to public health. This is India with high burden of vaccine-preventable communicable diseases. How could you cite dodgy ‘western’ source to make such a sweeping recommendation?

We've just launched the first large, site-less (home, direct to participant) randomized trial for treatment of #LongCovid, testing tirzepatide (a GLP-1 drug) vs placebo. Please help spread the word https://t.co/9xiWw1VdiF

More MAHA pseudoscience. Remember, antivaccine activists don’t care about you or your family. In my state of Texas this year, 2 otherwise healthy but unvaccinated school-aged children died from measles, 100 hospitalized. Parents were targeted by activists wellness influencers.
🚨BREAKING TODAY: The most comprehensive autism study to date reveals the undeniable —Vaccines are the single most significant modifiable risk factor for autism. After reviewing over 136 studies, researchers found 107 show a positive association between vaccines and

This is why i avoid X. I open it, read utter trash, feel rage, rant and rage, feel depleted. My emotional regulation coping mechanism wasn’t made for X & social media in general. In the meantime, if you want to read book reviews by me, follow me on insta: priyabooknook ok bye

We’ve replaced science with social media science. No data. No peer review. No accountability. Junk studies go viral. Real scientists get buried. We’re not debating ideas anymore - we’re drowning in noise. This isn’t progress. It’s the death of reason, live-streamed for likes.

Since autism is in the news, we should worry how diagnostic boundaries of autism have expanded leading to higher diagnostic rates. High rates of co-morbid psychiatric conditions & absence of biological markers are also important. This is the problem. Not vaccines.

Long story short the ONLY reason there is "a rapid increase in autism in India" is because we are getting MUCH better at diagnosing it. Thanks to the efforts of Paediatricians all over India, General Practitioners, Primary care physicians, Family Medicine physicians, Emergency
Parents should take this analysis seriously. I believe there is increasing evidence that we are giving way too many vaccines to very young children. This is spreading in India too and we are seeing a rapid increase in autism in India.

The genocide in Sudan is beyond words People are being slaughtered right now with UAE weapons in a proxy war to take control of land and resources while the world’s powers are silent This is the worst of humanity: mass killing for power games We have failed so miserably

This is the point. We have very poor care for autism & parents of children with autism get little support. We need to address this, rather than peddling false anti-vax stories which does a disservice to those with autism and their parents.
@Md_Nowsath_ Not at all. But we should not rubbish those who raise fears. Some of them have autistic children and their anxieties need to be addressed not ridiculed.

PROBABLY THIS IS THE MOST UNDERVALUED COMPANY ON NASDAQ — ACCORDING TO WARREN BUFFETT-STYLE ANALYSIS When Warren Buffett said, “Price is what you pay, value is what you get,” he was describing companies exactly like NextNRG Inc ($NXXT). It’s a business producing real revenue,

Fight back against every anti-vaxxer. Give examples like these below. It is appalling and scary that such idiotic and unscientific statements are being peddled as facts. We have come a long way as a nation in eradicating some of these deadly diseases & we have a long way to go!!
Why new vaccines? A friend who was a brilliant science topper, working for a tech giant in the US was visiting his home town in South Canara. He was married to an ayurvedic doctor. They both were swept away by the #Antivaxx movement and had declined most vaccines. Their tween

They say “science went too far.” No - ignorance did. Science gave us clean water, safe food, and modern medicine. Fear gave us plagues, hunger, and witch hunts. The most dangerous experiment humanity ever ran was the one where it stopped listening to scientists.

Anyone who has read the history of Andrew Wakefield and his collusion with a lawyer for creating this myth, a man whose medical license was canceled for gross malpractice, would have the good sense not to believe anything he writes. Personal grief of Vembu is trumping truth here.
@RameshPV2010 I will not delete my post. I stand by what I said. The term "Dodgy western source" should be applied to FDA and CDC recommendations, by the way. Those institutions do not deserve blind faith. The brave doctors who are questioning the dogma are doing a valuable service. Science

Imagine the arrogance of tech bros to say this to…a doctor! I guess tech people who “hyper specialize” in ML or Distributed documents retrieval are ok, but doctors aren’t supposed to? It is literally helping them save lives!

"I have met Dr. Andy Wakefield and he is not a fraud" "Trust me bro"
@DrAkhilX I have met Dr Andy Wakefield and he is not a fraud. I have personally known very good doctors who have an excellent research record who respect Dr Wakefield and feel sad about what was done to him. They seriously question the medical system going dangerously off course. Covid

We should hold all outside actors in Sudan, on all sides to account, whether it's the UAE, Egypt, etc. But it's not just Arab states. What the hell are UK arms doing in RSF militia hands? Why do western countries continue to fuel the arms trade that help fuel these conflicts?

Israel never stopped bombing Gaza. It never stopped killing Palestinians. It never stopped committing genocide. And government ministers wonder why we continue to demonstrate in our thousands? End all arms sales to Israel, now.

We defeated smallpox. Doubled life expectancy. Put satellites in orbit. Cracked the genetic code. Science wasn’t perfect. But it saved more lives than any ideology, religion, or war ever took.

For the public and patients, please do not stop vaccinating your children. You don't want polio to come back. You don't want measles to kill your child like it is doing in the US because boomer uncles in charge of US Health Departments have become anti science. The conclusions

Can you please list out these 56 vaccines being given to children in India? Although I studied medicine & qualified as a Dr, I am unaware of the 56 vaccines you have mentioned here.
@ParijatSen11 The success of polio vaccine is not proof that we need 56 shots now. We used to have 3-4 and now we have 56. The question is "how many vaccines are safe for young babies with immature immune systems" and the question is NOT "we need none of them".
