▪️Oklahoma has become an epicenter of Whooping Cough in the United States. ▪️The current outbreak of ~500 cases (largest since 1956) has not even been mentioned by the Oklahoma State Health Department on their social media keeping Oklahomans in the dark and uninformed.

We’re experiencing perhaps the worst flu season in 25 years, with severe cases also rising, and young children and seniors faring the worst. One in six of all ER visits in the 0-17 age groups are now for influenza. h/t Caitlin Rivers “Force of Infection”

When you have that large an epidemic of measles 200-300 and admissions to hospitals and pediatric ICUs mount, we know what can happen. Thinking of my pediatric colleagues in rural and children’s hospitals in the Texas panhandle this afternoon and evening nbcnews.com/health/health-…

Many thanks ⁦Ana Cabrera⁩ for hosting me ⁦MSNBC⁩ today on an accelerating measles epidemic in Texas and New Mexico, I expect numbers and hospitalizations to increase significantly bc of the typical 12-14 day incubation period and expanded diagnostic testing

I only know what Texas DSHS released that it was an unvaccinated school-aged child. So tragic, what I always say, don’t blame the parents, they too are victims of sorts. Both child and parents = victims of our predatory, politically motivated and aggressive anti vaccine lobby

Scientists: we can’t capitulate to Bobby Morbillivirus & his pet HHS kakistocrats. No pivoting, “working together,” or bootlicking. Time to stand up for our profession & our science, both in & out of govt. Nobody will do it for us, so we must do it ourselves. Yes, that means you

HUGE MEASLES NEWS: Texas HHSC released *new* details on the one death in Texas. The child who died had *no* underlying conditions. He died from the measles. That's it. An otherwise healthy, unvaccinated school-age child died. More proof of how dangerous Measles is. #txlege

DO NOT ATTEND MEASLES PARTIES—Marjorie Taylor Greene is now promoting the idea of “measles parties”. Meanwhile, 2 unvaccinated people died recently—including a 6 year old who just died last week.
