RE: https://mstdn.ca/@ducky/116477984538960887 Useful info for people in BC who aren't anti-vaxxers: If you are not in one of the groups explicitly called out, you are still allowed to get a shot (as long as it has been at least three months since your previous shot). And they are, sensibly, still free for walk-ins. #BC #BritishColumbia #BCPoli #vaccines #vaccination

A silver lining for #PublicHealth? The #Kent #meningitis outbreaks seems to have reminded some of the importance of the protection provided by #vaccines. #vaccine #vaccination https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/mar/25/kent-meningitis-outbreak-prompts-rush-for-routine-vaccinations-in-england

In the UK, 249 individuals received compensation for harm caused by #COVID19 #vaccines. Given that more than 50 million people were vaccinated, this reflects about 0.0005% of the population and appears not to be an unrealistic number. #vaccination #vaccine https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yrvyv4zlzo

Oh, no! CNN video of the visits by two Congresspeople to the facility showed the Congressmen sharing info from the #Dilley child psychologists that "many" of the children at the facility were "sleeping a lot." The facility psycholgist attributed it to depression. But video of the five-year-old #LiamRamos -- taken while he was still being held at the facility-- showed a child who was not merely sleeping, but was nearly unconscious. He was non-responsive, either due to being drugged or feverish. FYI: A common symptom of #Measles -- a symptom which happens prior to any skin rash-- is usually days of fever, excessive sleep, and general lethargy. (I'm old enough to remember the Measles.) Today, that tired-eyed five-year-old was on a plane and taken back to #Minnesota . I'm very glad he's gone home, but I would bet good money that entire plane was exposed to Measles. #Vaccination #Vaccines #DilleyTexas #DilleyDetentionFacility #MeaslesOutbreak https://youtu.be/tMR_XPiUvPw?si=yeAPSEJZ8OMiBkGS

Simple question, simple answer: Because not enough people are vaccinated... #Measles #vaccination #vaccine #vaccines https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3w42xz34zjo

The U.K. has lost its measles elimination status, a designation given when there is no sustained transmission of the disease for a year. Last year saw more than 1,000 cases and in 2024, there were 3,600. Vaccination rates are also below the 95% required to achieve herd immunity. Here's more from @BBCNews@flipboard.com. https://flip.it/._AFrR #Health #Medicine #Science #Measles #UnitedKingdom #UK #Vaccination

The U.S. CDC's vaccine advisory committee has voted to remove the universal recommendation for hepatitis B vaccine at birth. @Independent@flipboard.com explains more about the transmission and seriousness of the virus and the rationale behind the universal recommendation. https://flip.it/RoKtax #Health #Science #Medicine #Vaccination #HepatitisB #USPolitics #TrumpAdministration
