Measles and RFK

124 mostly unvaccinated children were sickened with measles in Texas and New Mexico. One child has died. Three unvaccinated children were sickened in New Jersey. During his confirmation hearing, Robert Kennedy insisted he was not anti-vaccine. Now that he is safely in office, he has vowed to investigate the childhood vaccine schedule. Measles was declared eliminated in 2000. And now it’s baaack. Trump’s ambivalence toward the COVID vaccine and RFK’s documented vaccine skepticism have caused  a growing number of parents to decide not to have their children vaccinated. To their cost, and to ours. As we see in Texas, New Mexico and now New Jersey,  Trump and RFK are  Making America Sick Again. Polio, whooping cough, and diphtheria are just a few of the eradicated diseases waiting in the wings for their comebacks  in this anti-vax environment. This ain’t Texas. This is local, this is grass roots. We can protect our kids.  Reach out to local state representatives. Sign petitions to get Democratic candidates on school board ballots. Make noise. We got this.
