Merck and GlaxoSmithKline - MMR Vaccine

Jim O’Neill, the deputy secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the acting director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), called on Monday for new vaccines to replace the current MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) shots.

O'Neill quoted a post from Donald Trump on 26 September urging against the use of Tylenol and “mixed” vaccines, as well as delaying hepatitis B vaccination from birth until 12 years of age.

In this video, Dr. Paul Offit, a pediatrician and vaccine expert at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, rebuts that claim, citing studies.  The video is very short - about 2 minutes - and explains that studies do not show a difference in autism occurrence.

Alarm as CDC calls for separate MMR vaccines despite measles outbreak - The Guardian. "Many of the vaccines in the routine childhood immunization schedule are combined in order to reduce the number of shots children receive, and their safety and efficacy have been demonstrated by decades of research."


Thoughts:  

The "chilling effect" continues as more and more corporations, companies, media, educational institutions, law firms and more give in to  expectations without much of a struggle.  The very things that protect us are chipped away a bit here and a bit there and this country is becoming unrecognizable.  We must push back on repeat.  If businesses only feel the pressure from one side, they have little reason to stand up on our behalf.  They must hear from "we the people".  Keep sending those postcards and/or calling!!!
