Hey @Megynkelly https://t.co/DwMExM4QdN

[American Academy of Pediatrics @AmerAcadPeds]

Pediatricians do not profit off vaccines. In fact, most pediatricians either break even or even lose money when they offer vaccines. Misleading parents about doctors' motivations puts children's health at risk and sows distrust in lifesaving vaccinations.

Last week, Republicans in Congress voted to cut $930 billion in health-care spending by setting up paperwork and procedural barriers to coverage. Sick kids will suffer, a pediatrician warns. https://t.co/S3L4A3VFEQ

The effects of Covid during pregnancy are devastating in terms of maternal morbidity and mortality; they are preventable by vaccination

Newer data from @PennMedicine find that Covid vaccines prevent long COVID in children and adolescents

[Deirdre O'Reilly MD MPH @DrDeird]

@SecKennedy @CDCgov @POTUS @NIHDirector_Jay @DrMakaryFDA Three men who know nothing about caring for a critically ill pregnant woman or newborn affected by COVID. This move will do nothing but undermine trust and care for vulnerable patients. @SenBillCassidy are you paying attention?

[Dr Ellie Murray, ScD @EpiEllie]

This is neither common sense nor good science.

Common sense says pregnant women and children deserve to be protected from potentially deadly diseases. Good science says this vaccine does that.

@MartyMakary I would like a booster to keep my NICU patients safe. Babies get COVID and they need us to help them. Too bad you aren’t helping.

You know how REAL the threat to cut Medicaid is?
Even GOP Sen. Josh Hawley and STEVE BANNON warned against cutting it.

Can we get 1,000 fast RTs and replies using the hashtag #SaveOurMedicaid to get it trending on Twitter?

Please and thank you! 🙏💪

🚨🚨Rep Becca Balint (D-VT) goes scorched earth on MAGA Republicans for their cruel and cynical budget that puts billionaires over babies,seniors, our veterans and the disabled. We need to #SaveOurMedicaid by making the ultra- rich pay their fair share in taxes! Keep fighting‼️

[Deirdre O'Reilly MD MPH @DrDeird]

My husband loses his job prosecuting federal crimes because of DOGE and @realDonaldTrump and his administration does this?!! I cannot believe the hypocrisy and utter corruption. @JDVance @PamBondi please know you are on the wrong side of history.

Hey @SenateGOP shame on you for supporting this lunatic. No one who reads this believes he has any shred of humanity or compassion for anyone but himself.

Nothing will kill more children than the ongoing decimation of CDC, NIH, and USAID work to lift vaccine uptake in the US and world.

Child survival rose 75% in the last 50 years. Vaccines account for 40% of that. Measles vax alone was 60% of the benefit. https://t.co/GgQeCuAcJc

[Seven Days @sevendaysvt]

The Vermont Department of Health said on Tuesday that it has confirmed a case of measles in a school-age child from Lamoille County.

The child, who had recently traveled internationally with family, was evaluated at Copley Hospital in Morrisville on Sunday and has since been isolated, the health department said, calling the threat to the public low https://t.co/zYCQFdVwo2

Hey @nytimes need to change your headline to “lies,” not “theories”.
