Measles Declared Endemic in United States
Under Trump: -Millions have lost ACA & Medicaid coverage -Screwworm, salmonella & cyclospora plague our food supply chains -New “forever chemical” pesticides have been approved -Measles declared endemic, 26 years after being eliminated in the U.S. “Make America Healthy Again.”
Handlebar-Orion X.🟦ᴺᵉʳᵈʸ ᵖʳᵒᵍʳᵉˢˢᶦᵛᵉ ᵠᵘᵃᵈʳᵒᵒⁿ ʲᵉʷ7Come January, as many of us as possible have to pester the democrats we elected every morning or afternoon at least once a day to impeach and prosecute these corrupt fascist skidmarks. 25th amendment all the fucking way!
Darth Morgothis3Now that we have the numbers, it's time to remove RFK Jr from HHS Secretary.
drowzeeking.bsky.social2And yet I still hear ignorant people I know say "Fauci is the real monster", despite the fact RFK is every conspiracy about Fauci, but real and worse...
livesarah1If you kill off all the sick people, all the ones left must be healthy, right? Republican genius at work! 🤡
“.. experts convening on Tuesday to decide whether the United States should lose its official designation as a nation that has eliminated measles.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/11/10/h...
Green Hombre7There's the Trump legacy history has been looking for! Never vote for people who hate government. They will suck at their jobs.
jhalp2.bsky.social5Clearly, with our national vaccination rate under 90%, of course we should lose that designation. Thank you RFK, Jr. And now, what are we going to do about it?
EARNED MY SPURS & UNABLE TO CURB MY CUSSING 🐎3Look what your legacy will include, RFK, Jr.
JoeCGiles2Thank a billionaire and a Republican.
ApolloLXII1Aren’t 3rd world countries the one’s struggling to eradicate measles? Welcome to the club, USA and shame on you!!
coconutlizard.bsky.social1Wow. Republicans are hurting kids. Despicable
ashley (BLUENAMI) 🌹44need the new congress to rip RFK apart
I'mNotAHRHitter13This is why people want revenge
Squillium7All because some people "didnt know what was in those vaccines" or "didnt want their kid to be autistic" Decades of scientific progress wiped out
Rabbi Jill Zimmerman4Absolute shande (Yiddish for deep shame) we know who is responsible
Richard W.2Put RFK in handcuffs for MURDER
It will be official shortly. We have lost our 30 yr measles elimination status. 🧪 www.nytimes.com/2026/11/10/h...
ryan150.bsky.social11Got any dusty iron lungs stored in gov't warehouses. May want to drag them out. Polio may be next.
Philo of Alexan9A completely unnecessary self inflicted wound and I know exactly who to blame
Melissa (she/her)7One of the most awful MAGA “accomplishments” (& there are so many).
lakepeg.bsky.social6JFC talk about letting our children down.
Peggy Stuart5I had measles. Polio was a thing then, and families were terrified of it. Vaccines aren't 100% safe & effective, but they're pretty close, and way safer than these diseases. Laws required vaccination for smallpox. You had to show the distinctive scar to get into the country or they gave you another!
lindarn.bsky.social4RFK needs to get impeached
An analysis of genetic data shows the measles virus is once again endemic in the United States, even as an international panel convenes this week to evaluate the country’s measles elimination status. www.nytimes.com/2026/11/10/h...
Amanda Makulec24As a public health professional, this is such a painful backsliding (that has been decades in the making it seems). Thanks for your reporting!
chezer59.bsky.social5Canada will soon be requiring proof on vaccination at the border. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia #uspoli #usmedia.
Nick Gorton 🏳️⚧️5I'm bringing this to my kids 6 month appointment to get an early MMR...
P_dPowell3A GD shame. Kennedy needs to be impeached.
Eric2That’s because of dumbasses that don’t believe in vaccines.
This is senseless when we have the measles vaccine.
Joshua Weitz12“We never really had to study measles from a genomic perspective before because there was no measles to sequence. It’s giving us a lot of new information, but it’s information that we didn’t necessarily need to have.” -Robert Potter, clinical microbiologist, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
Lisa Diedrich8"the explosion of cases in the US has coincided precisely with [RFK Jr's] time in office." This was literally his goal & it is eugenics.
Yolanda Sfetsos6It's so ridiculous that this is happening in the 21st century. People need to stop being such tools & vaccinate their kids. FFS.
Bill Hanage6While it has been coming for a while and is no surprise, this is still damning. And it’s hard to see it coming under control anytime soon
Just a girl and her books2Not surprised which is freaking sad but if there has ever been a time where we could consider an era a "dark age" due to lack of education, lack of resources, and lack of critical thinking this is it.
SYN.exe2Loss of elimination status is a failure that multiple administrations contributed to over time, but this is unquestionably the fault of RFK jr
🧵 This is entirely on RFK Jr. "Measles is once again endemic in the United States, 26 years after it was declared eliminated in the country, an analysis of genetic data from outbreaks of the disease has found." He has death of children on his hands
𝐃𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐆 🇨🇦 🇺🇦🌻🦋52It's not just a corny meme is it.
Malena-PRO-CHOICE 🌊 Fighting Tyranny!18The sad thing is that it doesn't just affect your own kid, when you don't vaccinate. It affects the entire community Babies that are too young to get the vaccine are at risk. So all those anti-vaxxers stupid fks are putting babies at risk. Measles is one of the most contagious diseases!
JamesPredicts13Not entirely. Put half the blame on the Republican Party for supporting and spreading the lies and the ignorance. They have the blood of children on their hands for measles, gun violence, poverty, all kinds of afflictions.
Metro Chimp12I wish all the people organizing to get their elected representatives to deny Jeffries and Schumer leadership positions would use that energy to organize to demand accountability for the assholes behind DOGE, murdering random fishermen, etc.
Roby5Hey, those babies are out of the womb, and therefore the death cult has no interest in them.
ZainR5Remember people: This fucker believes the cure for everything is "Chicken soup, and....VITAMIN AAAAAA!"
DrDinD.bsky.social180#HoldTheCrooksAccountable RFK Jr is yet another member of this administration with slimy ethics, in addition to his criminally negligent approach to measles.
Jessica Ellis179Hmm it’s funny because I was told Covid being “endemic” means that it’s fine actually.
daniel sieradski26are we going to have to wait for thomas massie to impeach this fuckin guy too
In the Colorado Foothills3This is what happens when you elect Republicans. RFK Jr is a 72-year-old, washed up, road kill eating, junkie and NOT a doctor!
earlier i said the best way to fight fascism is to uplift each other. another way to do that is by masking with a respirator. measles are endemic now, which is a direct consequence when we stopped masking to protect each other from covid. if you want to make a real change, start masking again
Bee 🐝1don't let imperfection stop you, any attempt at trying is valuable. remember especially to mask in public indoor spaces like grocery stores, hospitals, and when you're traveling. i want to believe we can do better and care for each other
⛧ ཐི𝔭𝔰𝔶𝔠𝔥𝔞𝔯𝔦𝔞ཋྀ ⛧1and get vaccinated if you can!! the measles outbreak is mostly from the fact people stopped getting vaccines and stopped vaccinating their kids!!
