Babies face more immune challenges at birth than from vaccines. Vaccine ingredients are tiny, less than natural exposure, and don’t accumulate harmfully. Vaccines are well-studied, safe, and vital for protecting kids’ health and futures.

Amid the turmoil, Sam Beyda, a 24-year-old who has never previously worked in public health, has assumed a prominent role at the agency, according to current and former officials. While at the CDC, O'Neill was often absent, those officials said, and he deputized Beyda to run much of the agency's day-to-day operations for him, people familiar with the matter said. Beyda, a 2023 graduate of Columbia University, is based in Washington, D.C., but frequently travels to the CDC's Atlanta headquarters. An internal document in November listed Beyda as leading five of 16 new strategic initiatives, including updating the CDC's agencywide response to outbreaks and crises, downsizing animal research and enhancing surveillance of novel pathogens. Some longtime CDC staffers have credited Beyda with being a quick study and making an effort to ask questions and learn on the ioh Ona coninr novear And ofniol enid Pando
But others say Beyda isn't qualified for a senior role that is often filled by someone with a master's in public health or years of experience in the federal government. Beyda executed January's widespread grant cuts to state and local health departments that the CDC then quickly rescinded, people familiar with the matter said. The administration moved forward about two weeks later with roughly $600 million in grant cuts to four states led by Democrats, a move now held up in court. Beyda was also deeply involved in a chaotic wave of firings at the CDC during the October government shutdown, according to people familiar with the matter, which saw more than a thousand employees laid off only for hundreds to later be reinstated. Beyda is one of at least a dozen political appointees at the agency, representing a larger number than in previous administrations, according to two current employees. The new political appointees wield significant power over the CDC's

For every 1,000 children who get measles, one or two will die. Children under five and adults over 20 are at higher risk for measles complications, including pneumonia, hospitalization, and death. If you have questions about the MMR vaccine, speak to your healthcare provider.
mRNA vaccines are safe, and they work. They don’t change DNA—just teach your immune system to fight. Side effects are usually mild; serious ones are rare. Millions protected, countless lives saved. #VaccinateIndiana
When the evidence-based vaccine schedules are followed, they are consistently proven safe and effective for children and adults. You can find more information on age-appropriate vaccinations on our website: hoosiersvaccinate.org/schedules/ #VaccinateIndiana

more good news about the HPV vaccine, this time from the Karolinska Institutet and other colleagues from Sweden.
#ReproSky + #MedSky + #OncSky.
More than 135 million doses of HPV vaccines have been given, and thanks to vaccination, infections with HPV types that cause most HPV cancers and genital warts have dropped 88% among teen girls and 81% among young adult women in the US. The vaccines are well-studied, safe, and they work 💪🏽
