Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdjEezCeTe/With all the confusion and lack of credible information coming from the usual public health channels, I want to arm all you parents and grandparents with the latest immunization recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics.  These guidelines are all based on the latest scientific information which demonstrates that these vaccines are safe and very, very effective at preventing and/or minimizing the effects of sometimes deadly childhood diseases. Now let's review, by months and years, the AAP immunization blueprint. At Birth: The RSV protective antibody nirsevimab up to 6 mos if mom not vaccinated in pregnancy up to 6 mos; 1st dose of Hepatitis B vax. 1 month: Hep B, 2nd dose, to 2 mo.2 months: Rotavirus- RV1 Vax, 2 doses; RV5 Vax, 3 doses, 1st dose; DTaP (Diphtheria, tetanus, and acellular pertussis); Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b); Pneumococcal; Inactivated Poliovirus4 months: RV1, RV5, 2nd dose; DTaP, Hib, Pneumococcal, Inact Poliovirus, 2nd doses6 months: Hep B, 3rd dose to 18 mo; RV5, 3rd dose; DTaP, 3rd dose; Hib, 3rd dose to 12 mo; Pneumococcal, 3rd dose; Inact Poliovirus, 3rd dose to 18 mo; CoVid, 1 or more doses to 18 yrs; Influenza, 1-2 doses/yr to 6 yrs12 months: Hib, 3rd or 4th dose to 15 mo; Pneumococcal, 4th dose To 15 mo; MMR; Varicella; Hepatitis A, 3 dose series, to 23 mo15 months: DTaP, 4th dose to 18 mo4-6 yrs: DTaP, 5th dose; Inact Poliovirus, 4th dose; MMR, 2nd dose; Varicella, 2nd dose7-10 yrs: HPV, 2 dose series to 12 yrs11-12 yrs: DTap, 6th dose; Meningococcal, 1st dose of 2, second at l6 yrsThese are the vaccines that every child should receive beginning at birth and extending over the first 18 years of life. Look at this as a scorecard for you to follow along with your pediatric team. These days, so many of our families are so mobile, vaccination records may be scattered and not up to date in any single medical record, electronic or otherwise. Your own checklist, either on paper or digital, should be the most complete.I have posted the American Academy of Pediatrics summary chart of all pediatric immunizations on my website at drhowardsmith.com/pediatric-immunizations-2025-6.Summary chart: https://www.drhowardsmith.com/pediatric-immunizations-2025-6AAP guidelines: https://tinyurl.com/467f5c9b#pediatrics #immunizations #vaccines #aap

Vidcast:  https://www.instagram.com/p/DQdknrnjVnr/For nearly the first time in the history of American public health, there is mass confusion and lack of credible information coming from our usual public health channels about which vaccines adults should receive. I want to arm all of you you with the latest immunization recommendations from the American Academy of Family Physicians and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.  These guidelines are all based on the latest scientific information which demonstrates that these vaccines are safe and very, very effective at preventing and/or minimizing the effects of sometimes deadly diseases. For Pregnant Women since you are immunizing for yourself and your new baby:TDap, in 3rd trimester; Influenza, anytime during flu season; CoVid, anytime; RSV, late 3rd trimester during RSV season.Adults, 18 through 64 year of age: Td/TDap, every 10 years; MMR, if not immune, 1-2 doses; Varicella, if not immune; HPV, through age 26 or 45 if never immunized; Influenza, annually late October; CoVid, 2-3 times a year with latest vaccines; Hepatitis A/B, as needed for travel or chronic illness; Meningitis, as needed for high risk, travel, outbreak, complement deficiency; Pneumococcal, if never immunized, high risk, immunodeficient; RSV,  if never immunized, high risk, immunodeficient.Seniors, 65 years and older: Influenza, yearly, high dose or adjuvated; CoVid: high potency mNEXSPIKE (Moderna) or equivalent Twice yearly, regular potency 2-3 times a year; RSV, single dose ? Every 2 years; Pneumococcal, PCV20 or PCV15+PCV23; Shingles, RZV or Shingrix, 2 dose series at 50 years or more, 19 years or more if immunocompromised; TDap, every 10 years.These are the vaccines that each of us should have. Look at this as a scorecard for you to follow along with your medical team. These days, so many of us are mobile, vaccination records may be scattered and not up to date in any single medical record, electronic or otherwise. Your own checklist, digital or paper, should be the most complete.

A Wellington Pharmacy says more people are asking about the MMR vaccine, as concerns grow about the measles outbreak. Pharmacist and vaccinator at Life Pharmacy Johnsonville Joseph Marcha spoke to Corin Dann.

RFK Jr.'s autism claims aren't about helping anyone—they're about deciding who gets to exist in America.

Autism isn't new, but our understanding of it has changed dramatically. It's now recognized as a broad neurodevelopmental spectrum that shapes how millions of people perceive, process, and interact with the world. In this episode, we explore what autism is AND isn't, from its earliest signs in infancy to its deep genetic roots, and why misinformation about it continues to spread. We speak with three remarkable experts leading the field in early detection, genetics, and public education: DR. AMI KLIN, PhD, Director of the Marcus Autism Center at Emory University and a pioneer in early autism research, whose work shows autism can be identified in babies as young as two months old. DR. JOSEPH BUXBAUM, PhD, Director of the Seaver Autism Center at Mount Sinai and a global leader in autism genetics, uncovering hundreds of genes linked to the condition. DR. ANDREA LOVE, immunologist, microbiologist, and founder of ImmunoLogic, known for her clear, evidence-based communication about vaccines, immunity, and autism myths. Together, we discuss: • What autism really is, and how the definitions have evolved • How it develops in infancy (and why early diagnosis can be so critical) • The powerful genetic evidence behind autism • The persistence of vaccine myths, and how misinformation spreads • How technology like eye-tracking can detect autism early • The rise of “profound autism” and what it means for families • The future of genetics-based treatments and therapy Whether you're autistic yourself, a parent navigating a new diagnosis, or simply seeking understanding, we're thrilled to share this extensive, in-depth episode with you.

Major Cohort Studies Hviid et al., 2019 – Annals of Internal Medicine A nationwide study of 657,461 Danish children found no increased risk of autism in vaccinated children compared to unvaccinated peers — even among those with risk factors such as a sibling with autism. Ann Intern Med. 2019;170(8):513–520 Madsen et al., 2002 – New England Journal of Medicine In 537,303 Danish children, researchers found no difference in autism rates between vaccinated and unvaccinated groups, and no relationship with age, timing, or date of vaccination. NEJM. 2002;347:1477–1482 Jain et al., 2015 – Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) A U.S. cohort of 95,727 children — including those with siblings with autism — showed no link between MMR vaccination and autism risk, even in genetically predisposed children. JAMA. 2015;313(15):1534–1540 Madsen et al., 2003 – JAMA A study of 467,450 Danish children found no relationship between thimerosal-containing vaccines and autism. JAMA. 2003;290(13):1763–1766 DeStefano et al., 2022 – Vaccine A retrospective cohort of over 500,000 U.S. children with ASD found no increase in adverse events or worsening of autism-related symptoms following vaccination. Vaccine. 2022;40(16):2391–2398 2. Population-Level Epidemiologic Evidence Taylor et al., 1999 – The Lancet One of the earliest large epidemiological studies found autism prevalence was the same in vaccinated and unvaccinated children, and the age of onset was unrelated to the timing of MMR vaccination. Read: Lancet. 1999;353(9169):2026–2029 Institute of Medicine (U.S.) Immunization Safety Review, 2011 A global review of studies from the U.S., Denmark, Sweden, and the U.K. concluded there is no causal relationship between vaccination status and autism, and no plausible biological mechanism linking vaccines (including thimerosal) to ASD. Read: National Academies Press / PubMed 20669467 3. Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Taylor et al., 2014 – Vaccine A comprehensive meta-analysis of 10 studies including over 1.2 million children found no association between vaccination and autism or ASD. Vaccine. 2014;32(29):3623–3629 Maglione et al., 2014 – Pediatrics Review of 67 high-quality studies covering the full U.S. immunization schedule concluded that vaccines are safe, adverse events are rare, and there is no link to autism, type 1 diabetes, or other chronic conditions. Pediatrics. 2014;134(2):325–337 Parker et al., 2004 – Pediatrics Systematic review of 10 primary studies examining thimerosal exposure found no relationship between vaccines and ASD. Authors noted that studies showing an association were methodologically flawed or biased, while robust studies consistently showed safety. Pediatrics. 2004;113(6):1904–1910 Offit & Hackett, 2003 – Clinical Infectious Diseases Review of immunology and epidemiology concluded that claims that vaccines “overwhelm” or “damage” the immune system are not biologically plausible based on how the immune system actually functions. Clin Infect Dis. 2003;46(9):1450–1456

108. Hidden Merck MMR Vaccine Secrets | Steve Krahling |The FedsThis presentation was recorded as a part of the Medical Freedom and the Constitution Summit 2025 at Patrick Henry College on October 11, 2025. We highly recommend watching on our Rumble or Youtube channels as the accompanying slides contain helpful information. What really goes on behind the scenes of vaccine development? In this explosive episode, former Merck virologistSteve Krahling breaks his decades-long silence to reveal the shocking story behind Protocol 007, internal resistance against corporate pharmaceutical fraud, and how critical information about theMMR vaccine has been hidden from the public for over 40 years.Krahling, who worked in Merck's Virus and Cell Biology Department, shares firsthand details of a rebellion inside the company to stop alleged falsification of data — including how potency standards were manipulated and why “informed consent” is impossible without transparency.From secret “overfilling” practices and missing safety studies to disturbing internal emails and failed clinical trials, this conversation dives deep into the science, the ethics, and the hidden decisions that impact public health. Krahling connects how the MMR fraud fallout is related to the current measles outbreaks around the country. 

This week, primary care physicians Kate Rowland, Mark Ebell, and Henry Barry want to arm our primary care colleagues with the best evidence on whether acetaminophen causes autism, whether MMR causes autism, and whether leucovorin can treat autism. Gary then turns to a study of the value of continuity in primary care, and its association with better health outcomes.Links:Henry's essay on Ignaz Semelweis, handwashing, and postage stamps: https://thestampforum.boards.net/thread/13044/current-issue-volume-jul-2025 Essential Evidence Plus and POEMs: www.essentialevidenceplus.comAcetaminophen in pregnancy and autism: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/38592388 Leucovorin to treat autism: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15781839, https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/34834493 MMR and autism, Wakefield investigation: https://www.bmj.com/content/342/bmj.c5347MMR and autism, Madsen's Danish study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12421889/ Value of primary care continuity: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/40355250And do NOT eat roadkill.

Health New Zealand is asking the parents of Northland students to ensure their children have had their MMR vaccines, amidst a measles outbreak in the region. Dr Sharon Sime from the National Public Health Service spoke with Corin Dann.

In today's episode, the Government is tightening access to jobseeker benefits for teens. From November next year, 18 and 19-year-olds won't get it if their parents earn over $65,000 per year. A new survey found almost three-quarters of Kiwis back banning social media for under-14s.

On Monday President Trump and the U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. held a press conference in which they made extraordinary new claims about autism. They suggested a potential link between the use of Tylenol during pregnancy and the development of autism. They also advocated spacing out childhood vaccinations. The two men's interest in the link between vaccines and autism goes back decades but these claims did not originate in the US. They trace back to the UK in 1998, when disgraced former doctor Andrew Wakefield first published his now-debunked theory linking MMR vaccines to autism cases in children. Today on the Global Story science journalist Adam Rutherford explains how the Wakefield vaccine conspiracy became the biggest medical disinformation disaster in recent history, and how these ideas found fertile ground in the Trump administration. Every weekday, this is The Global Story. The world is changing. Decisions made in the US and by the second Trump administration are accelerating that change. But they are also a symptom of it. With Asma Khalid in DC, Tristan Redman in London, and the backing of the BBC's international newsroom, The Global Story brings clarity to politics, business and foreign policy in a time of connection and disruption.

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck unpacks how Donald Trump's Department of Justice has become a political weapon, from targeting perceived enemies like James Comey to sweeping bribery cases under the rug, all while eroding public trust in law enforcement. He explores how Trump's strategy of framing his own criminal charges as political has worn down the public and set fire to the credibility of the legal system. Chuck also looks at the Democratic Party's internal strife over whether to embrace figures like Zohran Mamdani, the rising prospects of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and even murmurs of Lisa Murkowski eyeing a gubernatorial run. And beyond politics, he flags troubling signals in the economy—from surging Hamburger Helper sales to a slump in cardboard demand—that suggest things may not be as strong as the stock market makes them appear.Then, Dr. Michael Osterholm, one of the nation's foremost infectious disease experts, joins Chuck to confront the unsettling reality that Covid-19 was not “the big one.” From SARS and MERS as early warnings to the looming possibility of coronaviruses that are far more deadly than Covid, Osterholm argues that pandemics are inevitable—and the U.S. is dangerously unprepared. He discusses the political failures that prevented a serious after-action review, the collapse of government vaccine infrastructure, and why misinformation and anti-vaccine sentiment have left public health more vulnerable than ever.The conversation also looks forward: how mRNA technology could still be a game-changer, why developing respirators and updating building codes matter, and the urgent need for leadership with real bio-threat experience.

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Dr. Michael Osterholm, one of the nation's foremost infectious disease experts, joins Chuck to confront the unsettling reality that Covid-19 was not “the big one.” From SARS and MERS as early warnings to the looming possibility of coronaviruses that are far more deadly than Covid, Osterholm argues that pandemics are inevitable—and the U.S. is dangerously unprepared. He discusses the political failures that prevented a serious after-action review, the collapse of government vaccine infrastructure, and why misinformation and anti-vaccine sentiment have left public health more vulnerable than ever.The conversation also looks forward: how mRNA technology could still be a game-changer, why developing respirators and updating building codes matter, and the urgent need for leadership with real bio-threat experience. Osterholm warns that everything from resurging childhood diseases to the rise of avian flu and the risk of bioterrorism are on the horizon, and he offers a sobering reminder—science is not fixed truth, it's the pursuit of truth.

The CDC's advisory panel voted to recommend separate MMR and varicella shots for children under four, citing a slight seizure risk with the combined MMRV vaccine, a move strongly opposed by the American Academy of Pediatrics as misleading and confusing. In obesity care, a phase 3 trial showed oral semaglutide 25 mg led to an average 13.6% weight loss in adults without diabetes, reinforcing GLP-1 pills as an effective option. Meanwhile, a large study linked pediatric CT scan radiation to increased blood cancer risk, urging dose minimization and safer alternatives.

An advisory committee for the Centers for Disease Control made changes to vaccine recommendations in a meeting last week that was described in media reports as tense and chaotic. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices or ACIP changed advice on COVID vaccines to a "shared decision-making model." It also changed its recommendation regarding the combined childhood vaccine for measles, mumps, rubella and varicella or chicken pox (MMRV). The committee recommended that children under 4 not be given the MMRV vaccine and instead recommended an MMR vaccine and a separate shot for varicella (chicken pox). The committee tabled a decision on whether to delay the birth dose of the Hepatitis B vaccine for newborns. To begin Wednesday's “Sound of Ideas,” we're going to talk about the recommendations coming out of the ACIP meeting and what those recommendations mean for those seeking COVID-19 or the MMRV vaccine. Later, Brian Katulis, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute joins the program to talk about the Trump administration's foreign policy in that region. 

Setting: President Trump held a press conference after attending Charlie Kirk’s funeral, teasing it as a “major announcement” on autism and public health. Main Claim: Trump and RFK Jr. asserted that acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy may be associated with an increased risk of autism in children. Trump directly warned against taking Tylenol while pregnant, except in extreme cases of high fever. Autism Statistics (as presented by Trump): Historical rates cited: 1 in 20,000 → 1 in 10,000 → 1 in 31 overall today, and as high as 1 in 12 among boys in some regions (e.g., California). He described this increase as “artificial” and linked it to medication and vaccines. Specific Policy Steps Announced: FDA to issue warnings and update labeling for acetaminophen, cautioning its use during pregnancy. NIH, FDA, CDC, and CMS to coordinate a new effort investigating potential environmental, pharmaceutical, and vaccine links to autism. New grant funding (13 awards) through NIH’s Autism Data Science Initiatives. Other Health Proposals Trump Raised: Vaccines: suggested spacing them out, avoiding certain ingredients (mercury, aluminum), giving MMR separately, and delaying hepatitis B vaccination until age 12. Treatment: referenced new findings suggesting folate deficiency in children may contribute to autism, with therapies under research. RFK Jr.’s Role: He emphasized that past autism research was too focused on genetics and ignored environmental/toxic exposures. Supported Trump’s push to investigate acetaminophen, vaccines, and other potential causes. Announced NIH/FDA would pursue depoliticized research, new label warnings, and public education campaigns.

Good morning from Pharma and Biotech daily: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in Pharma e Biotech world. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) has changed its recommendations for the MMRV vaccine for children under four, advising that the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine be administered separately from the chickenpox vaccine. The committee is also expected to make changes to the childhood schedule for hepatitis B and COVID-19 vaccines. Replimune's stock has crashed after uncertainty surrounding the regulatory path for its tumor destroyer therapy, while a House bill has reignited hope for the FDA's rare pediatric priority review voucher program. Bluebird Bio has rebranded as Genetix Biotherapeutics following a private equity buyout, and Sino Biological has introduced a high-throughput platform for AI-driven antibody discovery. Several pharmaceutical companies have announced layoffs, impacting thousands of jobs.

After ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel's show indefinitely following his remarks on the death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, protests broke out in Hollywood. Writers say the decision is an attack on free speech as the Trump administration raises pressure on broadcasters and late-night peers respond. ABC's decision to pull Jimmy Kimmel after remarks on Charlie Kirk's killing raises First Amendment and broadcast law questions. Legal contributor Jessica Levinson joins "CBS Mornings" with analysis. A CDC advisory committee has recommended that children wait until age 4 to receive the combined MMRV shot, while still getting separate vaccines for chickenpox and MMR at age 1. Supporters say it could reduce the risk of fever-related seizures, but medical groups including the American Academy of Pediatrics argue the risks are rare and accuse the panel of spreading misinformation. The new vaccine recommendations now go to the CDC's acting director for final approval. CBS News medical contributor Dr. Celine Gounder, editor-at-large for public health at KFF Health News, joins us to discuss the implications.

Brooke Gladstone speaks with Paul Offit, the director of the Vaccine Education Center and a physician in the Division of Infectious Diseases at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, about how the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., purged the CDC's vaccine advisory committee members, the controversial figures Kennedy replaced them with, and what impact this will have on the future of vaccines and immunology in the US.  On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

In our exclusive interview, Dr Chase discussed the management of recurrent endometrial cancer, emphasizing the importance of biomarker profiles and previous therapies. For first recurrences, she explained that carboplatin and paclitaxel with pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or dostarlimab-gxly (Jemperli) is recommended for patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) disease, whereas those with MMR-proficient (pMMR) disease may benefit from carboplatin, paclitaxel, and pembrolizumab (Keytruda) or lenvatinib (Lenvima). She also highlighted findings from the phase 3 RUBY trial (NCT03981796) that supported the FDA approval of dostarlimab, showing significant improvements in progression-free and overall survival in both dMMR and pMMR patients. Chase also noted the rising incidence of endometrial cancer, its deadly nature, and the importance of clinical trials for advancing treatment options. 

Today we discuss RFK Jr. the CDC, autism and trans activism. Kennedy revealed this week that in 2002, the CDC destroyed data that showed that children who got the MMR vaccine before 36 months of age had far higher rates of autism than did those who get the vaccine later in life. An HHS report will soon be released that ties Tylenol use during pregnancy to autism—what does this tell us about past public health advice, safety and risk? How can we all become better at pattern recognition? Florida Surgeon General Joe Ladapo is moving away from vaccine mandates for all citizens, while the governors of the three West coast states are conflating “science” with “ideology” while pining for a Covid-era-style CDC. In trans land: comedy writer Graham Linehan was arrested for saying mean things on-line, while trans-activists are not arrested when they threaten to kick and punch those who don't believe that men can become women. We explore the mental illness of trans-deluded people, and discuss Vivian Wilson, Elon Musk's oldest son, who thinks he's a girl.*****Our sponsors:Timeline: Accelerate the clearing of damaged mitochondria to improve strength and endurance: Go to http://www.timeline.com/darkhorse and use code darkhorse for 10% off your order.Manukora: the most flavorful, delicious, and nutritious honey you'll ever have.

Critics call the jabs a Pentagon-DARPA bioweapon. 01:27:33 – Trump, Gates, and Zuckerberg Dinner Trump dines with Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg at the White House. Commentary frames it as proof Trump embraces technocrats pushing AI, depopulation, and new mRNA delivery systems. 01:51:24 – Tim Kaine: Rights From Government Sen. Tim Kaine claims rights come from government, not God—sparking outrage. Ted Cruz rebukes him with Jefferson's words, while critics tie Kaine's stance to Marxist liberation theology. 01:59:42 – Liberation Theology = KGB Ops Discussion traces Kaine's worldview to “liberation theology,” described as a KGB psyop to destabilize the West. Parallels are drawn to Pope Francis and modern Marxist infiltration in religion. 02:03:47 – DOJ Pushes Gun Ban for Transgender People DOJ considers labeling transgender individuals as mentally ill to strip gun rights.

01:00:44 – RFK Jr. Torches Senate RFK Jr. clashes with senators, calling Maggie Hassan a liar and exposing CDC corruption. He slams pharma influence and cites data showing suppressed autism risks. 01:07:55 – Autism Cover-Up Exposed RFK Jr. details a 2002 CDC study showing black boys had a 260% higher autism risk with early MMR shots—data destroyed by officials to protect pharma. 01:11:10 – Cassidy Traps RFK Jr. Sen. Bill Cassidy forces RFK Jr. to endorse Trump's Operation Warp Speed, calling it Nobel-worthy. RFK caves, exposing his compromise with Trump's ego. 01:16:10 – Senators Bought by Pharma Discussion lists senators pocketing millions from vaccine makers: Warren, Sanders, Romney, Cassidy, and others. Both parties are shown as fully captured by pharma. 01:23:16 – Spike Protein = Bioweapon Listener analysis ties vaccine harms to spike protein's destruction of ACE2, fueling myocarditis, clotting, and turbo cancers. Critics call the jabs a Pentagon-DARPA bioweapon. 01:27:33 – Trump, Gates, and Zuckerberg Dinner Trump dines with Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg at the White House. Commentary frames it as proof Trump embraces technocrats pushing AI, depopulation, and new mRNA delivery systems. 01:51:24 – Tim Kaine: Rights From Government Sen. Tim Kaine claims rights come from government, not God—sparking outrage. Ted Cruz rebukes him with Jefferson's words, while critics tie Kaine's stance to Marxist liberation theology. 01:59:42 – Liberation Theology = KGB Ops Discussion traces Kaine's worldview to “liberation theology,” described as a KGB psyop to destabilize the West. Parallels are drawn to Pope Francis and modern Marxist infiltration in religion. 02:03:47 – DOJ Pushes Gun Ban for Transgender People DOJ considers labeling transgender individuals as mentally ill to strip gun rights.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Gregory A. Poland, M.D. Measles is a viral illness that very recently was considered rare in this country but unfortunately has seen a resurgence in recent times. It's highly contagious and can lead to severe complications including encephalitis and potentially death. There is an effective vaccine and it's typically administered along with mumps and rubella as the MMR. The vaccine was introduced in the 1960's and resulted in a dramatic reduction in the incidence of measles. Despite overwhelming evidence of the vaccine's safety and efficacy, vaccine hesitancy has resulted in measles outbreaks in communities with lower immunization rates. The topic for today's podcast is measles and my guest is Greg A. Poland, M.D., a general internist and vaccine research specialist at the Mayo Clinic. We'll discuss the clinical manifestations of measles, the measles vaccine, vaccine hesitancy and how we as clinicians can most effectively educate our patients about measles.

Host:  Mindy McCulley, MS Extension Specialist for Instructional Support, University of Kentucky   Guests: Katherine Jury, MS Extension Specialist for Family Health Season 8, Episode 8 In this episode of Talking FACS, host Mindy McCulley is joined by Katherine Jury, Extension Specialist for Family Health, to discuss the recent surge in measles cases and how to protect vulnerable populations—especially young children. They cover the MMR vaccine schedule (first dose at 12–15 months, booster at 4–6 years), vaccine effectiveness (about 97%), and why vaccination helps prevent community spread. The conversation addresses common concerns about vaccine side effects versus disease complications, the risks measles poses (including pneumonia and neurological issues), and how measles spreads easily through airborne particles. Katherine explains how adults can check their vaccination status through the Kentucky Vaccine Registry, request immunity testing, or receive a booster if uncertain. They emphasize the importance of community immunity, current kindergarten vaccination rates in Kentucky (around 86–87%), and practical steps parents and caregivers can take—consulting pediatricians, contacting local Extension offices, and staying informed to protect children and communities.

A 40 year-old accountant presents for advice on measles prevention. He reports disembarking from an airplane approximately 40 hours ago, and now being notified that one of the passengers on the plane has been diagnosed with measles today. He denies any chronic health problems, states he received “all the shots I should have” when he was a child. However, he is unable to produce documentation of childhood vaccinations. Which of the following represents the most appropriate action? A. This is an example of a low risk rubeola exposure without need for specific prophylactic action.  B. Obtain rubeola IgG titers and provide appropriate prophylaxis based on results.  C. Administer a single dose of MMR vaccine now with advice to contact the practice if there are concerning signs and symptoms.  D. Order a dose of immunoglobulin and arrange for MMR vaccination update.---YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-y2Ihr76nY&list=PLf0PFEPBXfq592b5zCthlxSNIEM-H-EtD&index=122Visit fhea.com to learn more!

“Colorectal cancer treatment is not just about eliminating a disease. It's about preserving life quality and empowering patients through every phase. So I think nurses are really at the forefront that we can do that in the oncology nursing space. So from early detection to survivorship, the journey is deeply personal. Precision medicine, compassionate care, and informed decision-making are reshaping outcomes. Treatment's just not about protocols. It's about people,” ONS member Kris Mathey, DNP, APRN-CNP, AOCNP®, gastrointestinal medical oncology nurse practitioner at The James Cancer Hospital of The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Columbus, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about colorectal cancer treatment.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0  Earn 1.0 contact hour of nursing continuing professional development (NCPD) by listening to the full recording and completing an evaluation at courses.ons.org by August 1, 2026. The planners and faculty for this episode have no relevant financial relationships with ineligible companies to disclose.

Highlights From This Episode “Colorectal cancer has several different types, but there is one that dominates the landscape, and that is adenocarcinoma. So I think most of us have heard that. It's fairly common, and it accounts for about 95% of all colorectal cancers. It begins in the glandular cells lining the colon or rectum and often develops from polyps, in particular adenomatous polyps.” TS 1:41 “One of the biomarkers that we'll most commonly hear about is KRAS or NRAS mutations. This indicates tumor genetics, and these mutations suggest resistance to our EGFR inhibitors such as cetuximab. BRAF mutation or V600E is a more aggressive tumor subtype, and those may respond to our BRAF targeted therapy. … And then our MSI-high or MMR-deficient—microsatellite instability or mismatch repair deficiency—that really predicts an immunotherapy response and may indicate Lynch syndrome, which is a huge genetic component that takes a whole other level of counseling and genetic testing with our patients as well.” TS 6:02 “Polypectomy or a local excision—that removes our small tumors or polyps during that colonoscopy. And that's what's used for those stage 0 or early stage I cancers. A colectomy removes part or all of the colon. This may be open or laparoscopic. It can include a hemicolectomy, a segmental resection, or a total colectomy, so where you take out the entire part of the colon. A proctectomy removes part or all of the rectum. This may include a low anterior resection, also known as an LAR … or an abdominal perineal resection, which is an APR. … Colostomy or ileostomy—that diverts the stool to an external bag via stoma. Sometimes this is temporary or permanent depending on the type of surgery.” TS 14:11 “We'll have our patients say, ‘Hey, I want immunotherapy therapy. I see commercials on it that it works so well.' We have to make sure that these patients are good candidates for it, also that we're treating them adequately. We need to make sure that they have those biomarkers, so as I mentioned, the MSI-high or MMR tumors. Our MSS-stable tumors—they may benefit from newer combinations or clinical trials. Metastatic disease—immunotherapy may be used alone or with other treatments. And then in the neoadjuvant setting, some trials are really showing promising results using immunotherapy prior to surgery.” TS 25:38 “Antibody-drug conjugates are really an exciting frontier in all cancer treatments as well as colorectal cancer treatment. This is used mainly for patients with advanced or treatment-resistant disease, and these therapies combine the targeted power of monoclonal antibodies with the cell-killing ability of potent chemotherapy agents. They're still on the horizon for the most part in colorectal cancer. However, there is only one approved antibody-drug conjugate, or ADC, at this time, and that's trastuzumab deruxtecan, or Enhertu. That's approved for any solid tumor, such as colorectal cancer with HER2 IHC 3+. So again, looking back at that pathology in those markers, making sure that you have that HER2 mutation and that IHC.” TS 35:00 “There are a few myths going around about colorectal cancer treatment that can lead to confusion or even delayed care. One myth is only older men get colorectal cancer. As you heard me talk in my previous podcast on screening, unfortunately, this isn't necessarily true. Colorectal cancer affects both men and women and our cases in the younger population are rising. So our screening guidelines have changed to age 45 because we are seeing it in the younger population.” TS 45:54

Infectious disease physician Janet A. Jokela discusses her article, "Measles is back: Why vaccination is more vital than ever." Recounting her own experience diagnosing a case in the 1990s, Janet contrasts that contained incident with the current crisis in 2025, which has seen over 1000 cases and the first pediatric deaths in the U.S. in 22 years. The conversation covers the critical 95 percent vaccination rate required for herd immunity, a threshold the country is falling below, and explains why measles is one of the most contagious diseases known. Janet dismantles dangerous misinformation about the MMR vaccine and ineffective alternative treatments, emphasizing that the vaccine is 97 percent effective and has saved millions of lives. For listeners, the key takeaways are to understand the severe, and sometimes fatal, complications of measles—such as pneumonia and encephalitis—and to recognize that the benefits of the MMR vaccine far outweigh any risks.

Dr. Jay Butler is an infectious disease physician, epidemiologist, and former Deputy Director for Infectious Diseases at the CDC. We had the joy of hosting Dr Butler in the BioLogos offices recently where we shared his perspective on public health as a ministry, discussing his career journey from the CDC to working with Alaska Native communities. He also delves into the history of measles, its impact, and the groundbreaking development of the MMR vaccine, which has saved millions of lives globally. The conversation explores the challenges of public trust in medical research and institutions, especially concerning vaccines, and how science and faith can come together to pursue truth and improve public health outcomes.

Episode #277 Dr. Andrew Wakefield, The Root Causes Of Autism And Solutions Hello Health Heroes! This week, I spoke with Dr. Andrew Wakefield, a former gastroenterologist that had his medical license taken away from him for discovering the link between the MMR vaccine and autism in children. Dr. Wakefield then created and directed the documentaries “VAXXED” and “VAXXED ll” educating millions of people on the dangers of vaccines. His latest creation YOW.tv is a boutique library of movies and shows that go outside the deceptive mainstream and is also a streaming platform. If you have or about to have children this episode is a must listen. Enjoy the show! Love & Light Coach Tim p.s.

RFK Jr. is now running the Department of Health and Human Services. So we sat down with journalist and Conspirituality co-host Derek Beres to get an idea about how long it will take for Kennedy's "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) agenda to revive the black plague. We chat about why Beres argues that Kennedy's wellness-sounding platform masks an exclusionary health vision which amounts to “soft eugenics,” RFK Jr's endorsement of the MMR vaccine and how this angered his followers, harmful narratives about autism which will probably be endorsed by the federal government, and how the MAHA Commission's AI-generated report doesn't seriously address health problems facing children.
