So in your research, to what do they attribute this huge drop in cases and bad health outcomes, between this period before measles vaccines and after vaccines?
It's obvious, isn't it?

The rapid drop in measles cases began, roughly, in 1963. RoN dEsAnTiS wasn't born until 1978.

That's nO cOiNcIdEnCe!

I'm sorry but why is 1963 significant? What happened in 1963 that correlates to measles cases dropping?

So let’s recap.

Ron Desantis had a job as a lawyer once upon a time.

Measles almost disappeared as a disease of concern in the US at one point but was resurgent around 2014, no idea why, but I do member that Jenny McCarthy was kinda hot back then. And measles seems to be making a mini resurgence now although the reasons are not clear.

Ron Desantis is a governor now.

And sumthing sumthing sumthing about trumpty dumpty being a hero when he pushed the operation warpspeed and then he tried to undermine the vaccine once it came to the public and his Fuckwit Medical Science followers pushed back so he pushed horse deworming pills instead but then took credit for the vaccine and was then hospitalized with covid in a master class of gaslighting and blatherpandering. I must say his multiple 180s on the covid and the vaccine is one of the greatest moments in rubefucking history in my memory.

But like Old Balls Brandon my memory ain’t good so who knows?

These days my level of effort is not what it used to be.

I can own that. Maybe

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

more lab leaks!!
Thanks, Biden!

I've been reading about fragments of the virus showing up in cows milk.

The "researchers" at the Fuckwit Medical Association will have an answer for this.

This is very not good news:

Bird flu jumps from cow to human in the us: Experts confirm first case

It's now official: the highly pathogenic bird flu A(H5N1) that's been spreading across the globe since 2020 has now been passed from a cow to a dairy farmer in the US, the first confirmed cow-to-human transmission of this virus on record...

"It's a huge thing that the virus has jumped from birds to mammals, dairy cows in this case, and then to humans,"
says environmental toxicologist Steve Presley, the director of the Biological Threat Research Laboratory at Texas Tech University...

It's only recently that this bird flu passed from poultry to livestock in the US, which was something of a surprise for experts because it was the first time ever that highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) had been detected in dairy cattle. Closer monitoring of dairy cows and those who come into contact with them will now be required.

This is only the second human case of this bird flu in the US, and human-to-human transmission hasn't been observed anywhere yet. But each time the pathogen finds a human host, it has more chances to adapt and mutate to be more infectious to our species – which seems to have happened in this case.

"The virus identified in the worker's specimen had a change (PB2 E627K) that has been associated with viral adaptation to mammalian hosts and detected previously in humans and other mammals infected with HPAI A(H5N1) viruses and other avian influenza A virus subtypes," Presley and his CDC and Texas state health authority colleagues write in their paper.

The current bird flu outbreak started in 2020, and although human infection is rare, there's a high mortality rate. That means it's vital that we understand how disease is being passed between animals, and where this is happening.

We know it's now in a host of mammals, including foxes, seals, sea lions, bears, and domestic cats. With the stakes so high, and the pandemic fresh in people's minds, scientists are working overtime to try and minimize the ongoing spread of the influenza...



(Hopefully our resident infectious disease expert will explain why it's nothing to worry about, because it only kills people who were going to die eventually anyway, and is no worse than the flu.)
