It's a confusing time in public health. Some states like Minnesota have started new vaccine policies with the goal of protecting people's access. Other states have moved in a different direction. Florida plans to end vaccine requirements for children. These changes at the state level are happening as the federal government's approach to vaccines is in upheaval. U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as well as a committee of advisers who influence vaccine policies. Kennedy then filled some of those roles with people who, like him, have spread misinformation and conspiracy theories about vaccines. Dr. Nathan Chomilo is a practicing pediatrician and chair-elect of the American Academy of Pediatrics' Council on Health Equity.

Welcome to Episode 272 of Autism Parenting Secrets.This week, we're talking about a medicine almost every parent has used. For decades, doctors have recommended it for fevers, ear infections, even after vaccines. It's long been considered safe.But compelling evidence shows it's not nearly as safe as we've been told—especially for babies and young children under stress.My guest is Dr. William Parker. He is distinguished, highly credentialed, and deeply passionate about protecting children. After earning his PhD in Chemistry, he spent nearly 30 years at Duke University studying biochemistry, microbiology, and immunology. He's best known for discovering the function of the human appendix—a safe-house for bacteria—and for the last decade, he's focused on how acetaminophen, when combined with oxidative stress, impacts brain development. He's published more than 150 peer-reviewed papers, and his work points to this drug playing a major role in the rise of autism.This is a conversation parents need to hear. Dr. Parker is substantive, credible, and unwavering in his pursuit of the truth. It's not about fear—it's about clarity and better choices.The secret this week is…AVOID THIS Popular Drug To Protect DevelopmentYou'll Discover:The Hidden Link First Exposed in 2008 (4:51)How Acetaminophen + Oxidative Stress = Trouble For Susceptible Kids (15:29)The Timeline That Matches The Rise of Autism (23:26)The Flawed Assumptions in Many Scientific Studies (26:50)Practical Next Steps Parents Can Take (45:53)The Actual MECHANISM That Harms Brain Cells (51:07)About Our Guest:William Parker earned a PhD in Chemistry in 1992 and studied biochemistry, microbiology, and immunology at Duke University for almost 30 years before starting WPLab, a private, non-profit research and education corporation, in 2021. Best known for the discovery of the function of the human appendix (a safe-house for bacteria), Dr. Parker has spent almost a decade studying the impact of acetaminophen combined with oxidative stress on neurodevelopment. He has published more than 150 peer-reviewed papers, including work in PLoS One, the European Journal of Pediatrics, Minerva Pediatrics, and Clinical and Experimental Pediatrics. WPLab scientists have concluded that many, if not most, cases of autism are a chemically induced injury caused by exposure of susceptible babies and children to acetaminophen.References In This Episode:Learn more about Dr. Parker's work: PreventAutism.org and www.wplaboratory.orgAdditional Resources:To learn more about personalized 1:1 support, go to www.elevatehowyounavigate.comTake The Quiz: What's YOUR Top Autism Parenting Blindspot?If you enjoyed this episode, share it with your friends.

Today, I want to talk about a research finding that might make your kids angry, but it might also help your kids perform better in school. A study published in the Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine found that a student's cognitive performance may be improved if they walk to school, rather than be driven to school in a car or on the bus. It seems that God has wired our bodies in such a way that teenagers who engage in physical activity early in the morning wind up stimulating their brains in ways that contribute to increased cognitive performance during the school day. And because adolescent females are typically less active than their male peers, that early morning walk is especially helpful to our girls. While researchers do say that there are actually a multiplicity of factors that could be at work here, one thing is sure: this research reminds us that God made us as integrated beings. To be balanced, our kids need to get enough exercise. Make sure your kids are active and not dormant.

The Vermont Conversation with David Goodman
Dr. Becca Bell on the chaos at the CDC, and the uneven future of vaccine access

The Vermont Conversation with David Goodman

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 3, 2025 41:13


The Centers for Disease Control, the nation's top public health agency, is in chaos following the firing of its director by President Donald Trump and the resignations of its top leaders last week. Nine former CDC directors wrote in the New York Times this week that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, who spearhead the purge of the CDC and is a longtime leader of the anti-vaccine movement, is “endangering every American's health.”States are increasingly spurning Kennedy and taking health matters into their own hands. Northeastern states, including Vermont, have formed a regional health coalition in response to concerns about federal vaccine guidance. The governors of California, Washington and Oregon declared this week said that the CDC has become “a political tool that increasingly peddles ideology instead of science … that will lead to severe health consequences.” The three western states are banding together to coordinate their own vaccine policy.Meanwhile, the state of Florida has just announced that it will become the first state to do away with all childhood vaccine mandates, eliciting strong objections from public health experts.Can Vermont trust the health advice coming out of the federal government? What are the leading threats to public health confronting the state and country?“It pains me to say, I don't know that you want to trust the CDC,” said Dr. Becca Bell on The Vermont Conversation. Bell is associate professor of pediatrics at the Larner College of Medicine and a pediatric critical care physician at the University of Vermont Children's Hospital. She is the immediate past president of the Vermont Medical Society and of the Vermont Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics. (Bell noted that she is speaking in her personal capacity, not on behalf of the organizations with which she is affiliated).Bell said that “the officials that have left the (CDC) have really raised the alarm that … we shouldn't trust what's coming out of the CDC in terms of some immunization guidance in particular.”She encouraged families to look to other sources for accurate information, especially the parenting website of the American Academy of Pediatrics, which represents 67,000 pediatricians. She also recommended the Vermont Department of Health and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.“Then I ask families to talk to their own child's doctor, because that's going to be a great source as well.” Kennedy, the Health and Human Services secretary, announced in May that the CDC would no longer recommend a COVID shot for healthy children. The American Academy of Pediatrics has issued contrary guidance, recommending a COVID shot for all children under the age of 2 since they are “especially vulnerable to severe COVID-19.”Bell credited Vermont with being proactive “about how we can keep Vermonters safe," but added, “I feel really sad for the future of this country's child's health, because I think that we're going to see a lot of disparities, not just with access to vaccination but access to health care in general, with the big Medicaid cuts that are coming up as well.”Bell warned that Medicaid cuts, which will result in some 45,000 Vermonters losing health insurance, will fall hardest on children. One third of Medicaid enrollees in Vermont are children.“What we're about to see with that One Big Beautiful Bill Act (is) a huge transfer of resources from low income folks to the highest earners in this country,” said Bell. “Accessible, affordable health care is what kids need to succeed and for families to succeed, and so we are deeply concerned about the future of pediatric health care because our foundation is Medicaid. This is how we care for kids. It's what supports our clinics.”“The lack of investment in children is just really concerning and very short sighted.”

In ASD, a high prevalence of FRAA (up to 75%) has been documented, leading to impaired cerebral folate transport and subsequent deficiency despite normal serum folate levels.[1][2] Leucovorin utilizes the reduced folate carrier to restore central nervous system folate levels, thereby addressing a key pathophysiological mechanism in a subset of children with ASD.[1][2]Treatment of Folate Metabolism Abnormalities in Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Becoming a parent is often described as the happiest time in a person's life. But for many, it's also one of the most vulnerable. Behind the baby showers and birth announcements, there can be deep waves of anxiety, depression, isolation, and fear—feelings that deserve attention, compassion, and care. On today's show, we're shining a light on the mental and emotional well-being of mothers—before, during, and after pregnancyYou can join the conversation by sending an email to: family@mpbonline.org.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Incubator Podcast, Dr. Guilherme Sant'Anna, Professor of Pediatrics at McGill University, joins Ben and Daphna to discuss his team's work on implementing an early bubble CPAP protocol in the delivery room. Although CPAP has long been considered standard practice for preterm infants, Dr. Sant'Anna explains why intubation rates remain high in the most immature babies and how his group sought to change this pattern.The conversation reviews the background of the protocol, which began at McGill in 2014, and the cultural shift required to adopt bubble CPAP as the default approach. Dr. Sant'Anna describes the importance of multidisciplinary training, technical details such as proper prong sizing, fixation, humidification, and suctioning, as well as the challenges of sustaining practice change over a decade.The results of this initiative are striking: lower rates of delivery room intubation, reduced severe BPD, and improvements in outcomes particularly for infants born before 28 weeks. Dr. Sant'Anna also reflects on lessons learned, the global implications of bubble CPAP in resource-limited settings, and the importance of sharing knowledge to improve care everywhere.This episode highlights how attention to detail, persistence, and team culture can transform neonatal respiratory care.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Incubator Podcast, we welcome Dr. Cindy McEvoy, Professor of Pediatrics and Director of Neonatal Research at OHSU, to discuss her work on the use of extended CPAP in preterm infants. CPAP has long been a cornerstone of neonatal care, but how long should stable infants remain on support? Dr. McEvoy shares findings from two randomized controlled trials that explored whether an additional two weeks of CPAP could promote lung growth and improve longer-term outcomes.We review the physiologic rationale behind extended CPAP, including the role of mechanical stretch in stimulating alveolar and vascular development. Dr. McEvoy explains the stability criteria used to determine eligibility for extended CPAP and how her team measured pulmonary function in neonates. Results from her studies showed significant improvements in lung volume, diffusion capacity, and expiratory flows, with early signals of reduced wheezing at one year of age.The conversation also touches on feeding tolerance, the practicalities of implementing extended CPAP in the NICU, and the need for larger multicenter studies to confirm these findings. This episode offers an evidence-based look at how a simple extension of an existing therapy might reshape respiratory outcomes for preterm infants.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

[01:00:43] Church School Mass ShootingOpening covers the latest attack at a Catholic school during mass, carried out by a trans-identified shooter who barricaded doors and fired from outside. [01:04:29] Demonic Influence & Split PersonalitiesCommentary compares the shooter's behavior to demonic possession, citing disturbing videos, contradictory notes, and voices switching mid-speech. [01:07:29] LGBT Grooming & ViolenceThe shooter's background tied to a supportive mother, earlier gender change, and LGBT ideology—presented as the root of escalating violence against children and churches. [01:13:39] Democrats Exploit Shooting for Gun ControlFigures like Chuck Schumer, Amy Klobuchar, and Mia Farrow immediately push for gun restrictions, while ignoring mental health, SSRIs, and LGBT radicalization. [01:20:43] Shooter's Notes & LGBT Violence SymbolismManifesto excerpts reveal plans to attack children, anti-Christian slogans, Holocaust denial, and pride-flag gun imagery promoting violence “for equality.” [01:45:15] CDC Director OustedTransition to RFK Jr. forcing out Susan Monarez from the CDC, triggering resignations and media panic. Analysis frames it as deep-state infighting over vaccines, with critics calling it a head fake. [02:01:41] Vaccine Mandates & Immunity GamesDiscussion of EUA changes, FDA authorizations, and RFK Jr.'s promises versus reality—vaccines remain available, liability immunity intact, and profit motives exposed.

The grand jury rejects the indictment, showing rare jury resistance to government abuse. 03:13:00 – Flag Burning vs. Constitution Debate erupts over Trump's executive order criminalizing flag burning. A veteran arrested for protest burning insists it's his First Amendment right. Analysts argue Trump is torching the Constitution while distracting from deeper abuses. 03:21:00 – Scottish Girl Arrested A viral case in Scotland: a 14-year-old girl armed with a knife and hatchet defends her 12-year-old sister from a migrant attacker—only to be arrested by police. Commentators highlight the inversion of justice under multiculturalism. 03:28:40 – Migrant Crime Cover-Ups European governments downplay migrant sex crimes, reframing attacks as “male violence” rather than immigration-driven assaults. Dutch and British cases show systemic refusal to prosecute, fueling public fury and local protests. 03:37:50 – Germany's Schools Collapse German schools overwhelmed by mass migration: students can't speak German, violence soars, teachers quit, and homeschooling is outlawed.
