The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced recently that it will not review Moderna's mRNA flu vaccine, despite late-stage trials showing it was safe and effective. The rejection has many in and outside the industry concerned about the Trump administration's approach to vaccine development and recommendations. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Michael Osterholm.

Check out host Bidemi Ologunde's new show: The Work Ethic Podcast, available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.Email: bidemiologunde@gmail.comIn this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde zooms in on three global "signals" from Feb 9–15, 2026: a trust stress-test for Western alliances at the Munich Security Conference, a stability-versus-reform showdown in Thailand's election and constitution referendum, and a quiet but pivotal resilience upgrade in global health as WHO prequalifies an additional novel oral polio vaccine supplier. What do these seemingly separate headlines reveal about the world's new operating system, where credibility is measured in capabilities, legitimacy is negotiated in the rules, and preparedness depends on redundant supply chains? Are alliances becoming more transactional, and if so, what does that mean for deterrence and diplomacy? Can a government be "stable" while the constitution itself is up for renegotiation? And why might a vaccine manufacturing decision in one week matter as much as a summit speech?Quick question: when you buy something handmade, do you ever wonder who made it, and where your money really goes? Lembrih is building a marketplace where you can shop Black and African-owned brands and learn the story behind the craft. And the impact is built in: buyers can support vendors directly, and Lembrih also gives back through African-led charities, including $1 per purchase. They're crowdfunding on Kickstarter now.

When you put your faith in vaccination, disappointment is inevitable. Aaron Siri, Esq. has been litigating Big Pharma issues for many years, and has a wealth of legal knowledge about the topic as a result. He has found that belief in this pharmaceutical system has evolved into a religion for many people. Despite all the flaws in safety testing and ethical concerns with mandates, questioning these things is considered taboo and those who do not follow in lock-step with the “safety and efficacy” narrative are outcast. Doctors lose profit, media outlets lose funding, relationships suffer and employees are fired. Our “Pediatric Perspectives” host, Paul Thomas, M.D. interviews Siri today in an eye-opening episode that viewers won't want to miss. Tune in!

Twenty years ago, seven people diagnosed with metastatic HER2-positive breast cancer received a cancer vaccine as part of a clinical trial. Today, they're all still alive. This prompted Zachary Hartman to study the immune systems of the people in the trial to see what was happening. He found that the women had immune cells that continue to recognize the cancer and keep it under control. Now his goal is to make that vaccine even more effective and make it work on other types of breast cancer. Listen to the episode to hear Dr. Hartman explain: how the original study was done how he's working to make the vaccine even more effective how the vaccine might be modified to work on hormone receptor-positive and triple-negative breast cancer

Australia's facing a big spike in whooping cough cases as childhood vaccination rates fall. 

Early last year, a hundred researchers, clinicians and other experts on HIV discussed the development of an innovative vaccine that could prevent the disease. But just as the meeting was about to wrap up, the mood darkened. A new executive order signed by President Trump on Inauguration day had frozen all foreign aid, pending a review. Soon, DOGE would begin its decimation of USAID — and with it, this vaccine trial. That is – until the South African researchers came up with a new plan. Read more of freelance science reporter Ari Daniel's story here.Interested in more on the future of science?

BUFFALO, NY – February 16, 2026 – A new #commentary was #published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on February 6, 2026, titled “Censorship in science: How publishing decisions could have shaped the perceived “general consensus” on COVID-19 vaccine safety and efficacy.” In this commentary, led by Panagis Polykretis of the “Allineare Sanità e Salute” Foundation and the Independent Medical Scientific Commission (CMSi) in Milan, along with colleagues, the authors document a two-year effort to publish a case report and literature review that raised concerns about possible links between mRNA COVID-19 vaccines and rare blood cancers. They argue that editorial decisions, rather than scientific merit, prevented the paper from being published, raising broader questions about transparency and bias in scientific publishing. The commentary outlines the submission history of a previously written case report describing a woman who developed acute lymphoblastic leukemia shortly after receiving an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. Alongside the case, the original paper reviewed existing studies and regulatory findings related to hematological malignancies. Despite relying on published evidence and maintaining a cautious tone, the manuscript was rejected 16 times before eventually appearing in Oncotarget. According to the authors, most journals rejected the manuscript without external peer review. Three journals allowed it to proceed through peer review, and one journal accepted the paper twice before withdrawing its decision both times. The authors argue that such cancelations, particularly after positive peer review, suggest a pattern of editorial censorship that prioritizes conformity over open scientific debate. The commentary highlights examples of reviewer feedback and editorial statements that, according to the authors, misrepresented the content of the original case report. One rejection asserted that mRNA vaccines cannot cause cancer because they do not integrate into human DNA. The authors respond that this position is overly narrow and overlooks the complex, multifactorial nature of cancer development. They also cite peer-reviewed evidence of DNA contamination in vaccine samples and call for a more balanced and open discussion of these findings. Rather than claiming definitive proof of vaccine-related harm, the authors emphasize the importance of allowing controversial topics to be examined and discussed based on evidence. They argue that suppressing disagreement, even when grounded in published science, can influence public understanding and create the appearance of scientific consensus where meaningful disagreement exists. “This case raises serious concerns: if scientifically sound dissenting research faces systematic exclusion, the resulting literature becomes selectively curated, artificially constructing ‘consensus' while marginalizing legitimate scientific discourse.” The events described in the commentary raise concerns not only about a single case report but also about broader trends in academic publishing. If journal decisions are influenced by public health messaging rather than scientific reasoning, the authors argue that the scientific literature risks becoming selectively curated. They conclude by calling for institutional reform to ensure that editorial processes remain fair, evidence-based, and open to legitimate scientific debate.

But most people don't know the story behind the brand.In this episode, Jeremy Ogorek sits down with Hans to talk about losing everything in a New York tech startup, moving back in with his mom, buying a van, and accidentally stumbling into a health brand that's now replacing every product in your bathroom — and soon, your pantry too. We also get into the "everything is a lie" awakening, why fluoride was his first red flag, what's actually in the products you put on your skin, and how he's now selling $6 grass-fed smash burgers out of a restaurant in Pacific Beach that keeps selling out.If you've been rethinking what you put on and in your body, this one's for you.Chapters: 00:00 – Opening segment 01:25 – Van's background: CPA, quitting his first job, joining a NYC tech startup 05:15 – The startup collapse: $8M raised, celebrity investors, and losing everything 08:55 – Fluoride as the first red flag and the origin of the eggshell tooth powder 14:05 – How the tallow balm was born and why it went viral 19:00 – "Your skin is a mouth" — the philosophy behind Van Man products 21:25 – Product lineup: deodorant, sunscreen, bug balm, soap, shampoo, eye cream 30:30 – The Van Man restaurant in Pacific Beach: $6 grass-fed burgers 36:00 – The business model: restaurants, gas stations, and movie theaters as product "stunts" 43:25 – Other clean brands: Masa Chips, Orum, Rosie's Chips 53:00 – Vaccines, home birth, and the broader health awakening 57:00 – What's next: tallow popcorn, clean Snickers bars, cough drops, and an RFK collab1:04:15 – Closing segmentKey Takeaways:Tallow isn't a trend — it's a return to what worked for thousands of years. People are reporting cleared rosacea, vanishing acne, and healed scars from a balm made of five ingredients you could eat. Meanwhile, the dermatologist-recommended steroid creams weren't solving the same problems in a decade.Your skin is your largest organ, and it absorbs what you put on it. If you wouldn't eat the ingredients in your lotion or deodorant, ask yourself why you're comfortable rubbing them into your skin — especially in high-absorption areas like your armpits.Fluoride was the first domino. It's the only non-opt-in medication — it's in your tap water, your toothpaste, and it's free. Once you ask why they care so much about your cavities, the rest of the questioning begins.The restaurant isn't really about the restaurant. Van Man Burgers in Pacific Beach sells $6 grass-fed smash burgers at near break-even. The real play is getting clean products in front of new customers. Every "stunt" — restaurant, gas station, movie theater — is a storefront for the mission.You don't need permission to start. Van went from credit card debt and a van to building a brand, a restaurant, and a product line — all by following his gut, tweeting his thoughts, and making products he wanted to use himself. The XP comes from doing, not reading.

“I do not believe we should be testing to test. We have to know, is this test going to change management and is it going to make a difference,” says pediatric allergist-immunologist Dr. Zachary Rubin. His knack for providing that sort of straightforward guidance explains why Dr. Rubin has become a trusted voice on allergies, asthma, and vaccines for his millions of followers on social media platforms. It's also why we couldn't ask for a better guide for our discussion on the rise in allergies, asthma, and immune-related conditions in children, and how families can navigate the quickly evolving science and rampant misinformation in the space. On this episode of Raise the Line, we also preview Dr. Rubin's new book, All About Allergies, in which he breaks down dozens of conditions and diseases, offering clear explanations and practical treatment options for families. Join host Lindsey Smith for this super informative conversation in which Dr. Rubin shares his thoughts on a wide range of topics including: What's behind the rise in allergic and immune-related conditions.Tips for managing misinformation, myths and misunderstandings. How digital platforms can be leveraged to strengthen public health.How to build back public trust in medicine.Mentioned in this episode:All About Allergies bookBench to Bedside PodcastInstagramTikTokYouTube Channel If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

This episode is one of the most important conversations I've had about vaccines. I sit down with a leading vaccine expert to slow down the noise and talk honestly about where we are right now in America. We discuss how vaccines went from one of the greatest public health successes in history to something many families feel unsure about, and what that shift means for children. This is not about politics or headlines. It's about what I see as a pediatrician, what clinicians across the country are experiencing, and why protecting kids still has to be the center of the conversation. We talk about fear, misinformation, and the very real consequences of falling vaccination rates. I share personal stories from training and practice that still stay with me, and we unpack how trust eroded, how Covid changed the landscape, and what parents deserve to understand moving forward. My hope is that this episode helps families step back from the chaos and reconnect with the core goal we all share: keeping children safe, healthy, and out of hospitals whenever we can. What we discuss: The current state of vaccines in America Why vaccines are a victim of their own success How misinformation spreads faster than evidence Turning points that eroded public trust in vaccines The impact of Covid on vaccine perception Real clinical consequences of falling vaccination rates Stories of vaccine-preventable illness from practice Why personal choice affects community safety Changes to vaccine recommendations and public messaging What parents should understand about risk vs benefit To connect with Paul Offit follow him on Instagram @pauloffitmd and check out all his resources at https://www.paul-offit.com/  00:00 Opening Message: The Real Risk of Skipping Vaccines 02:12 Meet Dr. Paul Offit 03:30 The Current State of Vaccines in America 05:04 Vaccines Are a Victim of Their Own Success 06:12 Why We Still Need Vaccines for “Rare” Diseases 08:27 Where Modern Vaccine Distrust Began (1982 Turning Point) 10:34 Pandemic Fallout and Vaccine Hesitancy 12:02 Frontline Stories from COVID 15:06 Denial in the Face of Evidence 17:11 How Vaccine Communication Should Change 19:00 Operation Warp Speed and Scientific Breakthrough 21:13 Politics and Public Health History 23:18 Measles Deaths Are Not “The Cost of Doing Business” 25:20 Medical Freedom vs Public Responsibility 28:23 Schedule Changes and Shared Decision Making 32:49 Life Before Rotavirus Vaccine 34:02 RSV Breakthroughs and Modern Progress 38:31 The Emotional Toll of Vaccine Misinformation 40:02 Residency Stories: When Prevention Fails 43:30 A Message to Vaccine-Hesitant Parents 45:35 What Keeps Dr. Offit Fighting 47:04 Final Takeaway: Vaccines Succeeded So We Forgot Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

In this week's episode of Medicine: The Truth, hosts Jeremy Corr and Dr. Robert Pearl examine a sweeping set of developments shaping American healthcare. From the first state-approved use of generative AI to prescribe medications without human oversight to rising healthcare costs, from worsening vaccine misinformation to the stubborn persistence of preventable disease, this show focuses on biggest stories in medicine today. The episode opens with a groundbreaking and controversial pilot program in Utah that allows a generative AI system to renew prescriptions for chronic disease without physician involvement. From there, the conversation turns to the relentless rise in healthcare spending. New federal data show Americans now spend more than $15,700 per person annually on medical care, with costs growing twice as fast as the economy. While insurance coverage remains high for now, Pearl warns that expiring subsidies, Medicaid restrictions and rising premiums are already pushing millions out of coverage. For many families, healthcare affordability has become a top issue and, increasingly, a political fault line heading into the midterm election cycle. Here are more major storylines from MTT episode 103: Exercise as medicine for depression: A large meta-analysis finds that regular exercise can be as effective as antidepressant medication for many patients. Trump's healthcare plan fades quickly: Pearl explains why the president's proposal disappeared from the headlines. Measles returns in force: Cases are nearing 1,000 and outbreaks concentrated in under-vaccinated communities. Vaccine battles intensify under RFK Jr.: New appointments to federal advisory committees raise alarm among scientists, as anti-vaccine voices gain influence. Chronic disease remains America's top killer: Cardiovascular disease continues to claim nearly one million lives annually. Generative AI's biggest promise: Pearl makes the case that AI-driven, at-home monitoring could finally transform chronic disease management. Cancer trends turn ominous: Colorectal cancer deaths among Americans under 50 are rising sharply, becoming the leading cancer killer in this age group. Genetics vs. lifestyle revisited: New research suggests genetics may account for half of lifespan variation but lifestyle still determines how many of those years are lived in good health. High-deductible health plans: New data show cancer patients with high-deductible insurance have significantly higher mortality. GLP-1 weight-loss pills arrive: The first oral GLP-1 drug launches to record demand. A devastating flu season for children: Despite the availability of safe vaccines, pediatric flu deaths reach alarming levels among unvaccinated kids. As the episode closes, Dr. Pearl delivers a stark warning about the resurgence of pseudoscience in medicine. Tune in for more fact-based coverage and analysis of healthcare's biggest stories.   * * * Dr. Robert Pearl is the author of the new book “ChatGPT, MD: How AI-Empowered Patients & Doctors Can Take Back Control of American Medicine” about the impact of AI on the future of medicine.

BUFFALO, NY – February 11, 2026 – A new #casereport was published in Volume 17 of Oncotarget on February 6, 2026, titled “Exploring the potential link between mRNA COVID-19 vaccinations and cancer: A case report with a review of haematopoietic malignancies with insights into pathogenic mechanisms.” In this report, led by first author Patrizia Gentilini along with corresponding author Panagis Polykretis from the “Allineare Sanità e Salute” Foundation and Independent Medical Scientific Commission (CMSi), Milano, an international team of researchers presented a detailed case involving a healthy, athletic woman who developed acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma shortly after receiving her second dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 mRNA vaccine. The authors reviewed existing literature and discussed possible immune-related mechanisms that could connect mRNA vaccines to blood cancers, calling attention to the need for further investigation. The case report focuses on a 38-year-old woman who began experiencing immune-related symptoms the day after her second COVID-19 mRNA vaccine dose. Within months, she was diagnosed with an aggressive blood cancer affecting early-stage lymphocytes. While she initially achieved complete remission through chemotherapy, she later experienced a central nervous system relapse and underwent a stem cell transplant. The sequence of events raises questions about whether the vaccine-induced immune response may have contributed to disease onset or progression. To provide broader context, the authors reviewed several other reports describing similar cancer cases after COVID-19 vaccination. These included lymphomas, leukemias, and other haematopoietic disorders. In many cases, symptoms appeared shortly after vaccination. While these instances remain rare, the authors argue that the patterns merit closer study. They also discuss potential mechanisms, including immune suppression, increased inflammation, and vaccine-related interference with key cancer-protective proteins such as p53. One concern highlighted in the report involves lipid nanoparticles used to deliver the vaccine, which may circulate beyond the injection site and reach organs such as the bone marrow. The authors note that changes in immune signaling, antibody responses, and genetic material could, under certain conditions, create conditions favorable to cancer development in susceptible individuals. However, they emphasize that a definitive cause-and-effect relationship has not been established. “The carcinogenic risk associated with these technologies, which has long been known within the gene therapy field, represents an area of research that cannot be ignored, given the fundamental principle of medicine “primum non nocere” (first, do no harm).” Although the case does not prove that vaccination caused the cancer, it adds to a small body of evidence suggesting that immune disturbances from mRNA vaccines should be studied further. The authors emphasize the importance of continuing long-term safety monitoring as mRNA vaccine technologies are expanded to other uses. Understanding potential rare risks is essential for ensuring informed public health decisions while maintaining trust in vaccine programs.

This episode is one of the most important conversations I've had about vaccines. I sit down with a leading vaccine expert to slow down the noise and talk honestly about where we are right now in America. We discuss how vaccines went from one of the greatest public health successes in history to something many families feel unsure about, and what that shift means for children. This is not about politics or headlines. It's about what I see as a pediatrician, what clinicians across the country are experiencing, and why protecting kids still has to be the center of the conversation. We talk about fear, misinformation, and the very real consequences of falling vaccination rates. I share personal stories from training and practice that still stay with me, and we unpack how trust eroded, how Covid changed the landscape, and what parents deserve to understand moving forward. My hope is that this episode helps families step back from the chaos and reconnect with the core goal we all share: keeping children safe, healthy, and out of hospitals whenever we can. What we discuss: The current state of vaccines in America Why vaccines are a victim of their own success How misinformation spreads faster than evidence Turning points that eroded public trust in vaccines The impact of Covid on vaccine perception Real clinical consequences of falling vaccination rates Stories of vaccine-preventable illness from practice Why personal choice affects community safety Changes to vaccine recommendations and public messaging What parents should understand about risk vs benefit To connect with Paul Offit follow him on Instagram @pauloffitmd and check out all his resources at https://www.paul-offit.com/  00:00 Opening Message: The Real Risk of Skipping Vaccines 02:12 Meet Dr. Paul Offit 03:30 The Current State of Vaccines in America 05:04 Vaccines Are a Victim of Their Own Success 06:12 Why We Still Need Vaccines for “Rare” Diseases 08:27 Where Modern Vaccine Distrust Began (1982 Turning Point) 10:34 Pandemic Fallout and Vaccine Hesitancy 12:02 Frontline Stories from COVID 15:06 Denial in the Face of Evidence 17:11 How Vaccine Communication Should Change 19:00 Operation Warp Speed and Scientific Breakthrough 21:13 Politics and Public Health History 23:18 Measles Deaths Are Not “The Cost of Doing Business” 25:20 Medical Freedom vs Public Responsibility 28:23 Schedule Changes and Shared Decision Making 32:49 Life Before Rotavirus Vaccine 34:02 RSV Breakthroughs and Modern Progress 38:31 The Emotional Toll of Vaccine Misinformation 40:02 Residency Stories: When Prevention Fails 43:30 A Message to Vaccine-Hesitant Parents 45:35 What Keeps Dr. Offit Fighting 47:04 Final Takeaway: Vaccines Succeeded So We Forgot Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

What if the story of vaccines is really a story about protecting what we value most? We sit down with biomedical researcher Dr. Rob Balza to chart the arc from smallpox variolation to today's mRNA platforms, then push past headlines to the data that actually changes lives. Along the way, we face the hard questions Christians are asking: how do we balance stewardship of our bodies with love for immunocompromised neighbors? What does “personal choice” mean when disease spreads before symptoms? And how do we weigh decades of clinical evidence against the pull of a compelling anecdote?We break the science down clearly. Attenuated and “old school” vaccines trained the immune system with weakened pathogens; mRNA vaccines use a temporary set of instructions so your cells make a single target protein, prompting immunity without the virus itself. We unpack trial results showing early high efficacy against infection, strong and durable protection against severe disease, and shorter infectious periods that can reduce spread. We also talk openly about waning antibodies, evolving variants, and why expectations should adapt as the virus changes.Trust is the other half of the story. We examine how mixed messaging about masks, politicized guidance, and recycled myths—like the debunked vaccine-autism claim—fractured public confidence. Then we turn to a sensitive ethical concern: fetal-derived cell lines used in research. Dr. Balza explains moral proximity, timing, and intent, clarifying that vaccines don't contain fetal tissue and that long-established lines don't require new abortions. Through a Lutheran lens of vocation and providence, we explore how God often works through ordinary callings—clinicians, scientists, and citizens—to safeguard the vulnerable.Come for the history; stay for the clarity. You'll leave with a grounded understanding of how vaccines work, how evidence should be weighed, and how faith can guide wise, neighbor-loving choices in a world where our decisions ripple outward.

The mandates may be over — but the punishment isn't.

In this podcast, Kyle welcomes Aaron Siri, a prominent legal advocate known for his work with the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN) and Del Bigtree's Highwire, who has been influential in uncovering pharmaceutical industry practices. The conversation revolves around Siri's new book, 'Vaccines. Amen,' which critiques the almost religious zeal with which vaccines are regarded and delves into various controversial aspects of vaccine safety and policy. Siri discusses the deficiencies in safety testing of vaccines, such as the Hepatitis B vaccine trials involving infants, and highlights how the 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act shifted the responsibility of vaccine safety from manufacturers to the federal government, resulting in a lack of accountability. The conversation also explores the history and efficacy of the Measles vaccine, potential long-term health impacts of vaccines, and the broader implications of governmental and pharmaceutical industry practices. Kyle and Siri emphasize the importance of individual choice and informed consent in vaccination decisions, criticizing the lack of transparency and the ethical implications of government-mandated vaccines. The discussion concludes with reflections on the future of vaccine policy and the importance of maintaining personal freedoms and rights. Aaron Siri is the managing partner of Siri and Glimstad, where he focuses on civil rights, informed consent, class actions, and complex civil litigation. His work includes challenging medical mandates, defending parental rights, representing whistleblowers, and forcing government transparency, including litigation that compelled the FDA to release Pfizer COVID 19 records. Aaron previously practiced at Latham and Watkins and clerked for the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Israel.
