It would be cool if a presidential candidate actually understood how certain policies work in our country and not try and run on a platform that appeals to conspiracy theorists and comes down to “make polio spread again.”

He would have to take it up with each individual state, anyway. The blatant lack of knowledge is still astounding.

@TonyStark Trump saw RFK Jr peddling antivax nonsense and remembered how much fun 2020 was for all of us?

RSV season has started again. Get vaccinated if you’re at risk/eligible and haven’t yet.

I just checked the CDC re RSV the other day – info for all ages at link below.

RSV vaccine is not currently an annual vaccine, meaning older adults do not need to get a dose every RSV season…

The best time to get vaccinated is in late summer and early fall — just before RSV usually starts to spread in the community

Pfizer Abrysvo is the only RSV vaccine recommended during pregnancy (during wks 32 thru 36, Sept thru Jan)
