Measles outbreak tracker

It wouldn’t be bad at all, if there was any real question about it

Got it.

I never used to even think about the two being connected and never thought it was. But I also, not having children -- and I'm glad this is not something I have to worry about now -- I didn't realize how many more vaccinations there are for kids these days. And we're supposed to be "healthier" but autism never used to be the problem it is now.

Obesity never used to be the problem it is now. So when are we going to start getting healthier? This thread is obvs measles and diet doesn't tie into that; but I believe more and more that the engineering of our food over the last 50 years -- which is probably RFK's overarching focus but we like to get lost in the weeds -- and we keep getting sold a bill of goods about it. And I can't do my own research; but, at this point, who and what am I supposed to trust in "healthcare"?

But now you can only be two things: a complete believer or a complete denyer. Medicine is nuanced, not black and white. And what I've learned about nutrition and after COVID, I got way more questions than I ever had and with no very clear answers on what DOES cause autism, that's what fuels my skepticism.
