A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Public health has quietly contained these for decades. Only our failures made the press. Public Health work is confidential except for a need to know. So if a family is quarantined it is not published. And the outbreak stops. But if that family is not contained and it spreads then soon there are many families that need to be contained. My fear is that with all the layoffs, funding cuts and resignations we will be less able to contain infectious disease outbreaks.

@SpeakerJohnson ICE is getting paid, Why are you to even allowing a vote on this bill?

[Virginia Dato @DocGinnyD]

@RulesReps is it true that you are not even allowing a VOTE??? Are you taking us hostage to your view point?

Is this the study you are referring to? https://t.co/t6fzD5Pzga

This is one of the craziest study I have ever read.
It is a pre-print so it has NOT been accepted to any journal.
Here are quotes “. The LDH Office of Public Health (OPH) utilized the Louisiana Electronic Event Registration System (LEERS), a vital records database, and Louisiana Immunization Network (LINKS), an immunization information system, to match immunization records (including CVX [12] code for the vaccine and the day-of-life it was administered) to death records (including cause of death) of children who died under the age of 36 months. Of the approximately 5,800 children who died before their 3rd birthday between 2013 and 2024, 1,775 deceased children could be exactly matched to their immunization record. This analysis excludes the 550 children who died before an age of 90 days (Figure 1).” “A child was considered to be vaccinated if they were documented as receiving the vaccine between day 60 and day 90 of life, and unvaccinated if they did not meet that criteria. A child was considered to have ‘died’ if they died between day 90 and day 120, and considered ‘alive’ if they died after day 120. Since this is a mortality dataset, all children represented herein died before their 3rd birthday.”

So if I read this correctly children who died of SIDS or any other disease who did not receive any vaccines would not be in this study because they would not be matched to an immunization record. So this is not a study of the vaccinated vs the unvaccinated but study of those vaccinated between day 60 and 90 vs those were vaccinated at older than day 90. So the children who died between 90 and 120 who did not receive any vaccine are not in the study because they could not have gotten a vaccine after they died.

@RN4Truth @hubbstercat @greenhousemd There is no antiviral medicine that treats measles.

[Virginia Dato @DocGinnyD]

But it concludes “The subjects who received SARS-CoV-2 vaccination showed almost half the risk of all-cause death after a median follow-up of 25 months. We also observed an inconstant association between COVID-19 vaccination and cancer hospitalization, depending on infection status, cancer site, and the minimum lag-time between vaccination and cancer. As the results might be influenced by the confounding effect of a differential healthcare utilization by vaccinated individuals, they must be considered preliminary, and further data are definitely required to elucidate the potential association between cancer and COVID-19 vaccination.”

So this statement “Louisiana Department of Health death records reveal that infants vaccinated at 2 months are far more likely to die in the following month than unvaccinated infants.” is totally misleading because the infants who were unvaccinated and died were not in the study because the did not have matched vaccine records!

But this study is worse. It is not correlation. It excludes the unvaccinated children!!! This is one of the craziest study I have ever read: https://t.co/t6fzD5Pzga

@jhart89135 @WallStreetApes The individuals born when you were born who did not survive measles and other childhood illnesses are not able to post their experiences because are dead. And many current seniors remain alive because current vaccines.

Here is a quote from the paper "At the beginning of the 20th century, the leading causes of child mortality were infectious diseases, including diarrheal diseases, diphtheria, measles, pneumonia and influenza, scarlet fever, tuberculosis, typhoid and paratyphoid fevers, and whooping cough." There is no question that public health measures including clean water, sanitation, treatment of infectious diseases, quarantine and isolation. But vaccines have also decreased infectious disease mortality.

The case review does not provide enough information and even if it did I do not have the skills or knowlege to make a judgement. I do not know if there was an autopsy. Hopefully the hospital has a quality improvement committee that can look at all the information and determine where improvements can be made and make the improvements. No human, or system is perfect and continuous quality improvement keeps us all safer. Decades ago when I trained in pediatrics and infectious disease Mycoplasma pneumonia was literally called walking pneumonia. Why? Because we humans would often get it, still be able to function and usually recover even without antibiotics. For a child to be on a ventilator from it would have been highly unusual BUT measles can depress the immune system so anything is possible including more than one pathogen. And I am not currently up on any mutations etc so the bacteria may have changed.

[Virginia Dato @DocGinnyD]

Even 1 death out of 1000 is too much Please provide the documentat on the lifelong health benefits since I can not find them. I did find this article.. “Does a Measles Infection Protect Against Cancer and Heart Disease?— HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has claimed it does, but science says otherwise“ https://t.co/mqN8h0cQV3 The package insert lists reported adverse reactions - https://t.co/G9mDDj5DdY however they may not be caused by the vaccine. Here is some information on Vitamin A https://t.co/oL7j9Cfkw5

[Virginia Dato @DocGinnyD]

How can you know the "right" antibiotic before the culture results and their antibiotic sensitivities come back? You can't. So when pneumonia is first diagnosed (by xray and or physical exam) the clinician choses the most likely bacteria and/or virus but NO ONE can know for certainty until the culture results come back. And even then if someone is severely immunocompromised from measles even antibiotics/antivirals the bacteria and or virus are sensitive to may not work.

[Virginia Dato @DocGinnyD]

Dr. Malone, I hope you are aware that "The measles virus can induce immunosuppression that can last for weeks to years" From..https://t.co/C6vs2UN7pu.. In addition "Many M pneumoniae infections are asymptomatic and benign "https://t.co/fs9MAG9acB and that E.Coli is present in most of our guts without causing any infection or pneumonia.

@DrTessaT @RWMaloneMD They are probably wearing PPE to protect the child with measles who is likely now immune-compromised and therefore very susceptible to other infectious diseases as well as other children from this very infectious measles virus (the first dose of MMR is at age 1.)
