When I was first assigned to cover some vaccine safety stories at CBS News around the 2002 time period, the crazy reality escaped me because it made so little sense. But I eventually came to understand it to be true. Vaccines not working? Problem defined as: Blame people who aren't vaccinated. Answer: Give everyone more vaccines. Vaccines not preventing disease? Problem defined as: Blame the people who aren't vaccinated. Answer: Give everyone more vaccines and boosters, too. Vaccines injure a vulnerable child? Problem defined as: Crazy parents. Answer: Controversialize and attack them; give everyone more vaccines. No matter what happens, or what the question is, or what the danger is: the answer of the vaccine industry and their propagandists in the medical health establishment, media, and government is: More vaccines.
Is journalism making a comeback? •4 vaccinated people in PA test positive for measles; health secretary pushes for vaccines •4 fully vaccinated people in Pa. are sick with measles, including 1 in Lancaster County •Pa. reports measles cases in 4 vaccinated residents. The rare breakthrough cases are less than 1% of the spreading outbreak •676 measles cases reported in Pennsylvania, including 4 vaccinated people, health officials say •Pennsylvania measles case: Four fully vaccinated people test positive, DOH says •Measles outbreak has sickened 676 in Pa., including four fully vaccinated people •52 new measles cases in Pennsylvania, 4 among vaccinated individuals •4 vaccinated people contracted measles in Pennsylvania, health officials say •FULL NEWS CONFERENCE: Four fully vaccinated Pennsylvanians test positive for measles, DOH says •Pennsylvania reports measles cases in 4 vaccinated residents. These rare cases account for less than 1% of the spreading outbreak

No one should die from a vaccine in 2026 but they do because the industry has no accountability and politicians like you fight to keep it that way.
Lancaster County's coroner confirmed that measles was the underlying cause of an infant’s death in Pennsylvania. Whether the CDC website reports this or not, it is a death caused by measles.   This underlines that measles can kill. The MMR Vaccine is safe and is the most effective protection against measles. Protect your family. No one should die from measles in 2026.

Now that the second Pennsylvania death has been revealed, it is clear that Gov. Shapiro's press conference (& the media coverage) was misleading. 1. Gov. Shapiro used the term "unvaccinated" to describe the two. But neither child was eligible for the MMR vaccine. The boy died right after birth, and the girl at 6 weeks. 2. Gov. Shapiro stated that the deaths were preventable. This does not appear to be the case. All the facts are not known, but the best current evidence suggests the boy likely died from trauma from delivery or resuscitation, not measles. The girl had Amish Lethal Microcephaly, a condition that virtually always results in death in the first months of life. Calling her death “preventable” was misleading in that it strongly implied she would otherwise have survived infancy (and, again, she wouldn't have been vaccinated at that age.) When Gov. Shapiro mentioned two "unvaccinated" individuals whose deaths were "completely preventable," how many listeners thought one would be a newborn with a traumatic rupture of the spleen & the other a six-week-old with a severe genetic condition that's lethal in the first few months of life? The natural impression was that Gov. Shapiro was referring to two vaccine-eligible people who died from measles because they declined vaccination. Gov. Shapiro (and the media) should apologize & publicly correct the record. The public has lost trust in health officials & the press because of misleading announcements and news coverage. This incident has only heightened that loss of trust. youtube.com/watch?v=6hYU4TFx…

2008 was an interesting year for vaccines. That's the year the formerly-sealed case of Hannah Poling leaked to the public. (I later reported on the case for CBS News. I'll link to that in this thread.) In Hannahs' case, the govt. (which represents vaccine makers in court, believe it or not) conceded that Hannah's vaccines caused her autism. Mind you, the govt. and head of CDC were denying this in public. We didn't know it at the time, but the govt's own top expert witness in vaccine-autism cases, pediatric neurologist Dr. Andrew Zimmerman, had shocked the govt. by telling them (DOJ lawyers) that vaccines can cause autism, after all. But instead of helping kids and revealing the truth, the DOJ fired Dr. Zimmermand as an expert witness and misrepresented his opinion in court thereafter. Anyhow, the govt. secretly paid the Poling family a multi million dollar settlement, but then had the case sealed so no other parents would find out. Public health officials continued to tell other parents they were imagining things. Meantime, many experts said that separating multi vaccines into individual doses is inherently safer. Some parents were opting to get their kids Measles and Mumps vaccines separately, for example, rather than giving them the combo Measles, Mumps, Rubella shot. How did the maker of MMR, Merck respond? Merck stopped making the individual shots in the U.S. All around 2008.

Ok, I'm going to explain this simply. Tylenol reduces glutathione. Glutathione is an antioxidant that highly mitigates inflammatory damage. If a mother has an illness during pregnancy, something called maternal immune activation (MIA) can occur in response. This is known to cause deleterious effects to fetal development. This is all well documented and not controversial. If she takes Tylenol during this inflammation to reduce symptoms, it can also cause a reduction in the ability to mitigate the inflammation, which can exacerbate any potential fetal damage. There is a risk to benefit ratio in every medication. In this instance, the risk is fetal damage, and the benefit is reduction in symptoms. The risk outweighs the benefit. Vaccines cause inflammation. That is, in fact, the goal. Create inflammation to generate an immune response. So pregnant women are given vaccines, which causes inflammation, and cause MIA, which potentially harms fetal development, and then are given Tylenol, which simply exacerbates the situation. I really wish people would just look at these things from an empirical perspective and stop politicizing everything. Feel free to look up anything I just said. It's all textbook medical knowledge. For decades, doctors implored pregnant women to take extra care of themselves, avoid all drugs, toxic foods, get adequate rest, reduce workload, etc, because a developing fetal is exceptionally vulnerable. Please stop spreading incorrect information that harms patients.
Taking acetaminophen, also known by the brand name Tylenol, during pregnancy had no effect on children developing autism, according to a study of over 1.5 million children in Denmark published this week. abcnews.link/W8uhOQ1

🚨 BREAKING: Health Sec. Bobby Kennedy MIC DROPS the ENTIRE Fake News fearmonger apparatus "In 10 years, there have been THREE measles deaths in America." "There are now about 1.2 MILLION deaths every year from food-induced illness!" "The media and certain demagogic politicians are constantly trying to SCARE us about infectious disease." "And we take the attention away from the chronic disease that is being caused by powerful entities, by big food companies, by big pharmaceutical companies!" "And what I'm trying to do as HHS Secretary, one deal with the infectious disease outbreaks, which we're doing, but also redirect attention and resources to the thing that's really killing Americans, which are food-borne diseases." 🔥🔥🔥

There were 2 deaths from Measles between 2003 and 2015, and in that same time period there were 127 deaths from the Measles vaccine! You are told to just ‘follow the science’ ! No medication should be approved that is more dangerous than the disease it claims to treat.

Additional facts coming out about the two deaths in Lancaster: 1. One of the deaths claimed to be “measles-associated” by the state was the death of a newborn male on August 14th. The baby’s spleen was lacerated, according to coroner, Dr. Stephen Diamantoni. The coroner ruled out measles as even a contributing factor because “there was no swelling or enlargement whatsoever” of the baby’s spleen and there was “massive blood loss.”* 2. The newborn’s mother is alive, and she was not the second death claimed to be “measles-associated.” 3. The coroner has no information about the second purported “measles-associated” death announced by the state. It’s possible he has not yet received the information, but eventually will. It’s also possible the individual died in a different county. The coroner says the law requires the death be reported to his office. Additional thought on these facts: This is not the first time that a purposeful release of limited, misleading, and/or false information by health authorities is used to fear monger and cast blame and judgement on those who decline one or more vaccine products. Think back to the two “measles deaths” in Texas, claimed last year, and ask yourself how much quicker we would have learned the truth there if we had someone like PA’s Commissioner, Josh Parsons, pulling back the curtain in live time. With the information we were able to eventually obtain, we concluded that neither of those deaths were measles deaths either.** This didn’t and doesn’t stop the media or health authorities from “claiming” these two deaths as measles deaths. Maybe this time around, with Commissioner Parsons peeling back the curtain in real time, we may get a somewhat different outcome. * lancasteronline.com/news/hea… ** sirillp.com/wp-content/uploa…

Our County Coroner who has statutory authority to determine cause and manner of death under the law says the infant did not die of measles. There is no current evidence of any second death. Your headline is false. Retract it now.

Here’s what we know so far about the two deaths in Lancaster, Pennsylvania that are widely being called “measles deaths:” 1. Governor Shapiro announced, “the first two measles-associated deaths in Pennsylvania in 35 years.”* This phrasing is important. He did not say “measles deaths” or “deaths from measles” which means the facts do not allow him to say that. And just as people can die with Covid, as opposed to from Covid, people can die with measles, as opposed to from measles. 2. While claiming that, “protecting the confidentiality of residents is a core responsibility of the Department of Health” and thus, “out of respect for their privacy, [the DOH] will not be releasing additional personal details,” as they’re “protecting people’s privacy and confidentiality,” they had no issue disclosing that the two individuals were supposedly unvaccinated which is, in fact, a medical and personal detail. 3. According to the County Commissioner, Joshua Parsons, as of August 25, 2026, “The Coroner’s office indicates that it currently has ZERO reported cases where measles is the immediate cause of death.”** 4. Most critically, if these two had died of measles, the Pennsylvania Governor and health department would no doubt have been blasting out that claim, instead of saying “measles-associated deaths” and “residents with measles have died.” 5. While jumping at any chance to hopefully pin a death on a disease for which there is a vaccine, these same officials don’t give a hoot about the children and adults across this country that are killed, injured, or left with a chronic disease from their worshipped vaccine products, no matter the number. The daily unrelenting flow of those contacting our firm about deaths and devastating injuries from vaccines are irrelevant to them. A maybe case, just hopeful case, that measles may have caused a death, that is all they care about even when all the facts are not in yet. 6. Ironically, Governor Shapiro preached that: “There’s real life consequences to spreading misinformation. There’s real life consequences to scaring people and not relying on actual doctors and actual medical professionals to provide unbiased information to parents…Sharing…misinformation does not help the cause of public health.” Yet, I have not seen the Governor or the Pennsylvania DOH correcting any of the media that is spreading misinformation, scaring people, and not relying on unbiased information in their reporting of these deaths as being “measles deaths” or “from measles.” These outlets include The New York Times, Reuters, The Guardian, USA Today, ABC News, Wall Street Journal, and many more.*** 7. Governor Shapiro also identified another serious problem: “Measles has been so rare for so long that many doctors don’t know a lot about it” and explains that their DOH has had to “work[] to inform physicians of the symptoms so they can tell the difference between the rash that appears from measles and perhaps some other rash.” When vaccination becomes the sole answer, the quality of healthcare declines. 8. Perhaps the most important thing that Governor Shapiro said is something that everyone needs to remember and respect: “Parents absolutely have the right to make their own decisions on how to best protect their kids.” Sources: *youtube.com/watch?v=6hYU4TFx… **nitter.cf/CommissionerJP/status/… *** The New York Times: “Two Unvaccinated People Died From Measles in Pennsylvania, Officials Say” — uses “died from measles” and “measles deaths.” nytimes.com/2026/08/25/well/… Reuters: “Pennsylvania reports first U.S. measles deaths this year as outbreak grows” — uses “died from measles” and “measles deaths” / “measles fatalities.” reuters.com/business/healthc… The Guardian: “Two unvaccinated people die of measles in Pennsylvania” — uses “die of measles” / “died of measles” and “died from measles.” theguardian.com/us-news/2026… USA Today: “Two dead of measles in Pennsylvania, the first in US this year” — uses “died of measles” / “dead of measles” and “measles deaths.” usatoday.com/story/news/heal… ABC News: “2 people die from measles in Pennsylvania, marking state's first deaths in 35 years” — uses “die from measles” / “died … from measles.” abcnews.com/Health/2-people-… Wall Street Journal (headline and body mix): “Pennsylvania Reports First Measles Deaths of 2026” — headline uses “Measles Deaths”; body includes “died after contracting measles” (borderline but often grouped with direct phrasing in coverage). wsj.com/health/pennsylvania-…
Important information about the measles press conference today: Today Governor Shapiro, members of Penn Medicine LGH, and members of the PA Department of Health (DOH) held a press conference announcing two “measles-associated deaths” in Lancaster County. Officials provided virtually no background information about these “measles-associated” deaths. DOH said to “protect the privacy of the individuals and their families, DOH will not release any additional details that could personally identify these individuals and their families,” however, they did release the medical information that the two were unvaccinated. Thus, they did not release age, background, or comorbidity information, but did release vaccination information. It is important to know whether these two people died OF measles or WITH measles. Given this is important information for us to have, and that the public and media have many questions about this, I reached out to the Lancaster County Coroner’s Office for information. Deaths attributed to a communicable disease, under the law, are required to be reported to the Coroner’s office. The Coroner’s office indicates that it currently has ZERO reported cases where measles is the immediate cause of death. They have one case where a person died WITH measles, but not FROM measles. Measles was definitely NOT the cause of death in that case. Given this information, it appears at least on the surface that incorrect information was provided to the public today. That information set off significant media interest in Lancaster County, both locally and nationally. Perhaps there is an explanation, but it is incumbent on the individuals and organizations that had the press conference today to provide that information to the public in a timely and accurate way.

At his press conference today, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro accused me of promoting conspiracy theories because I told him, during an earlier telephone conversation, that some Americans had religious objections to the MMR vaccine because it contained fetal tissue. “There is no fetal tissue in the MMR,” he told me. This is a segment from a videotaped deposition of Stanley Plotkin, the inventor of the MMR vaccine. Plotkin admits to butchering 76 aborted normally developing fetuses, all over three months old, in just one of the many studies that led to the development of his vaccine. The rubella virus used in MMR-II is grown on the cultured cell line composed of lung tissue from an aborted three-month-old female embryo and listed as “WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts” in the ingredients of MMR-II as portions of these cells end up in each vial of MMR II. During Dr. Plotkin’s deposition, Attorney Aaron Siri asked: “Isn’t it true that MMR II contains approximately 150 nanograms cells substrate double-strand DNA and single-strand DNA per dose purposefully fragmented to approximately 215 base pairs in length?” Dr. Plotkin answered: “Yeah, that’s probably correct, yes.” This equals approximately 646 billion pieces of human DNA from an aborted fetal cell line in each vial of MMR-II. In addition to the human DNA, there is also an unspecified amount of human cellular debris in each dose of MMR-II. During our phone conversation, Governor Shapiro also accused me of promoting vaccine misinformation. When I asked him for an example, he was unable to provide one, but this did not deter him from publicly repeating that accusation during his press event. As I told him, HHS does not tolerate misinformation by any employee. I offered to point to hundreds of instances of vaccine misinformation by the Biden administration about which I had never heard him complain. Governor Shapiro also faulted me for the decline in Pennsylvania vaccination rates from 97% - 93.2%. When I pushed back on this assertion, he acknowledged that most of the decline occurred during the Biden administration. It’s unfortunately true that the government lockdowns, deceptions, manipulation, and overreach during Covid severely damaged public faith in the vaccine program. Governor Shapiro’s press conference was an example of the same species of gaslighting. The Trump administration is working to restore public trust not by gaslighting or manipulating, but by being truthful, at last, with the public.

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: By the stroke of pen and flanked by RFK Jr., President Trump establishes a new US vaccine schedule that decreases the number of jabs from 72 to 11 — and spreads them out over multiple visits, rather than pumping the child all at once "That's a big one in my book!"

David Morens just pleaded guilty. Fauci’s senior advisor. The man who sat at his right hand for years. He used a secret Gmail account to hide official communications from the American people. He destroyed and concealed federal records to evade FOIA. He worked to protect the grants that flowed into Wuhan and the narrative that COVID could not have come from the lab his agency funded. This was not a clerical error. This was a deliberate cover-up while the country was locked down, censored, injected, and told to “trust the science.” Careers were destroyed. Early treatments were suppressed. Children lost years of their childhoods. Millions suffered. We stood on the steps of the Supreme Court in 2020 and told the truth. They censored us. They called us dangerous. They were the ones deleting the evidence. One guilty plea is not enough. The house of cards is still standing as long as the man at the top remains untouched. Accountability is not optional. It is the only path back to medicine and a free country.

Vaccinated Children Suffer 22X Higher Chronic Disease Rates A major new peer-reviewed reanalysis of the largest VAXXED VS. UNVAXXED birth cohort study ever conducted has delivered clear, consistent results. Children who follow the standard vaccine schedule show markedly worse health outcomes than their unvaccinated peers in ALL 22 chronic disease categories tracked. There were literally ZERO exceptions. Here are the documented percentage increases among vaccinated children: • Cancer: +54% • Autism: +180% • Neurodevelopmental disorders: +1,254% • Autoimmune disease: +1,120% • Motor disability: +810% • Speech disorder: +803% • Mental health disorders: +696% • Asthma: +553% • Developmental delay: +412% • Atopic disease: +386% • Seizure disorder: +216% • Food allergy: +128% • Neurological disorder: +26% • Any chronic condition overall: +250% Even more striking, several serious conditions appeared exclusively in the vaccinated group: • ADHD • Diabetes • Brain dysfunction • Behavioral disability • Learning disability • Intellectual disability • Tics • Other psychological disability This reanalysis of the Henry Ford birth cohort data confirms that vaccinated children carried substantially higher burdens of chronic disease, neurodevelopmental injury, and early-life health problems with no category spared. The pattern is unambiguous and points directly to the CDC’s childhood vaccine schedule as a primary driver of these widespread outcomes. The CDC’s vaccine regime has poisoned the nation.

Majority of measles cases today setting modern day records are in children over age 5 and adults, not children. This is a product of a massive increase in nasal PCR testing and failure of childhood vaccination. This cannot be due to Trump/RFK policies. "Vaccine status unknown" is vaccinated cases where CDC fails to make contact and confirm vaccine record. Get Focal Points at thefocalpoints.

FEDERAL BILL INTRODUCED TO TERMINATE THE VACCINE CARTEL’S 40-YEAR LIABILITY SHIELD The END THE VACCINE CARVEOUT ACT (S.3853) would FORCE vaccine makers to stop rolling out untested injections that are inducing mass harm.
If vaccines are so safe, they don't need immunity. As a U.S. Senator, have the courage of your convictions and become a sponsor of bill S.3853 (End the Vaccine Carveout Act) to repeal the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act which granted that immunity. IF YOU WON’T, THAT SAYS ALL WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WHETHER THEY'RE SAFE.   congress.gov/bill/119th-cong…
