I'm old enough to remember getting all the things that I had my kids vaccinated for. I survived but many kids in my generation did not. Vaccines saved lives. Vaccines are good...a modern miracle. Kennedy is a quack.
Our parents' generation knew vaccines were lifesavers. I had to suffer mumps, measles, chickenpox and rubella because there were no vaccines at the time. Mothers organized "chicken pox parties" so all the kids would get sick at the same time and provide herd immunity.
Ms Hurt, you have your mother's sharp pen, perhaps with an extra dash of acid. Both of you are terrific resources - informative and bracing - in these insane times. Thank you (and don't spare the acid...)
This is a problem only if parents are mindless sheep who hang on RFK Jr's every word. Listen to your pediatrician, not a drug addict who has no business being in the position.
This is probably the single most outrageous policy that absolutely makes me go ballistic! A politician decides what vaccines are best or “recommended” to protect children from preventable diseases. Then this idiot red lines $500,000,000.00 in grant money for medical research because he thinks mRNA is questionable. Good grief, will the courts please affirm the miraculous results against childhood illnesses thanks to physicians and research scientists?
Well done, Shanley. The unasked question—if vaccines are no longer federally recommended does that mean that beyond risking kids’ lives permission is given for the insurance industry to refuse to pay for vaccines immunizations not on “the list?”

Find a way to vaccinate! “Survivors

Unfortunately, yes.
