    If we could develop inhalant vaccines, then we could have people visit camps where they'd go into a chamber of sorts and the vaccine would be released as a gas.

    I think the Department of Government Efficiency would be very interested in this idea!

    upload_2025-2-26_12-38-50.png I believe some gases have already been developed that prevent the inhaler from contracting any disease ever again.

    We associate bubonic plague, the black death, with the Middle Ages but there are still outbreaks in areas of the world. One of them is Mongolia, where outbreaks are tied to hunting and eating marmots, a small rodent similar to squirrels. Plague is so widespread among marmots that hunting and eating them has been outlawed to prevent spread of plague.

    One would think regardless of political affiliation we would all consider bubonic plague a bad thing, right?

    No.

    Don Jr. went hunting in Mongolia and posted a video of himself roasting and eating marmot, while laughing about how it is illegal. Because laws don't apply to him.
    Now, I would not weep overmuch if he got plague. Problem is, it is very contagious.

    So, I was vaxed when young but never had the measles, is there a booster or does it not wear off?

    Contact your doctor's office with that question immediately. They are saying some people born before 1968 need a MMR boaster.

    Those of us old enough to have gotten measles pre vaccine have small comfort of lifetime immunity.

    Still a few months away from our newborn getting her MMR, so not super stoked about this situation. Will be asking our primary about getting it early.

    Being old and having no records of childhood immunizations, I got MMR shot (1 of 2) a couple weeks back.

    I prefer reddit. Obviously we'll be talking to our pediatrician at her next appointment, but for now she has some protection from her mother, since she was vaccinated. Even if we got it early (6mo), it looks like she would still need the 12mo and 4-6yr jab.. the scary part is that we have no idea how trustworthy the reporting is going to be when she is at her most vulnerable, 6-12months. Hey RFK, fuck you.

    Maybe we need to update the LBJ chant from 1968:

    Hey, Hey, RFK
    How many kids did you kill today?

    If you remember that chant you are old as fuck.
    I chanted it in Century City when Johnson did a big fundraiser in 1967. Just turned 13.

    Brain worm ordered National Institute of Health to end studies seeking information on why people are vaccine hesitant and best ways to change minds and encourage vaccination.

    Try raw milk and heroin instead.

    Yeah I feel that…

    Been getting high and listening to the dead a lot in the last year, think I achieved low earth orbit a couple of times but alas no escape velocity yet
