Clashing With RFK Jr., OB-GYNs Back Covid Shots During Pregnancy

Bloomberg reported:

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommended COVID-19 vaccines for pregnant women in its updated immunization schedule issued Friday, signaling another split between practicing doctors and the nation’s top health official.

Women should get immunized when planning to become pregnant, during pregnancy or when lactating, according to the premier US organization for physicians who specialize in women’s health.

Data shows the vaccines prevent complications for the mother and child, including preterm birth and even still birth, the group said in a statement.

FDA Begins Real-Time Reporting of Adverse Event Data

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration reported:

Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began daily publication of adverse event data from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). This represents a significant step forward in modernizing the agency’s safety monitoring infrastructure and demonstrates its commitment to radical transparency and real-time protection of public health.

“Adverse event reporting should be fast, seamless and transparent,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “People who navigate the government’s clunky adverse event reporting websites should not have to wait months for that information to become public. We’re closing that waiting period and will continue to streamline the process from start to finish.”

FAERS is the FDA’s primary database for collecting and analyzing adverse event reports, serious medication errors, and product quality complaints for prescription drugs and therapeutic biologics, containing reports submitted by healthcare professionals, consumers, and manufacturers.

EXCLUSIVE: How Fauci and a Deep State Cabal Suppressed Intel in Historic Deception

The Daily Caller reported:

Senior American intelligence officials concealed classified intelligence that COVID-19 came from a lab from the president and the public, granting Anthony Fauci’s inner circle extraordinary influence while silencing their own spy scientists, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation found.

Evidence pointing to a lab leak included signals intelligence collected from Chinese Communist Party leaders in 2019 between Beijing and Wuhan revealing a major emergency, one former official told the DCNF. An increasingly political deep state concealed it from President Donald Trump during the first two months of the pandemic, deflecting blame from China as political rival Joe Biden sought to lay responsibility for the pandemic squarely at Trump’s feet.

Higher-ups continued to dismiss evidence for a lab leak as the fodder for a conspiracy theory and Trump’s hardline stance against China, deceiving millions of Americans about a disease that upended their lives and felled loved ones. Spy scientists at four intelligence agencies and four other government officials spoke to the DCNF on condition of anonymity to reveal previously unreported details about censored intelligence under two presidential administrations.

Only 11 States Hit 95%: Public Health Experts Warns of Herd Immunity Drop

Atlanta News First reported:

During his U.S. Senate confirmation hearings in January 2025, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. denied any role in a 2019 measles outbreak that killed dozens of people on the island nation of Samoa. He insisted he made no public statements about vaccines and claimed many deaths weren’t from measles at all.

“When the tissue samples were sent to New Zealand, most of those people did not have the measles,” Kennedy, now secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), said. “We don’t know what was killing them.” That’s not true, say Samoan health officials past and present.

Dr. Robert Thomsen, Samoa’s current deputy director of public health, said measles was responsible for Samoans’ deaths. “We also had a forensic pathology team that came at a time and confirmed that they died of measles,” Thomsen said in an interview with Atlanta News First Investigates.

Dr. Take Naseri, who was the nation’s top health director during the 2019 outbreak, agreed: “The vaccines did not kill the children. It was the measles virus.” Thirty-three days after two Samoan children died in 2018 from a deadly mix of the MMR vaccine and muscle relaxant, an organization Kennedy founded, Children’s Health Defense, paid Facebook to post multiple ads sowing doubt about the vaccines.

At Least 600 CDC Employees Are Getting Final Termination Notices, Union Says

Federal News Network reported:

At least 600 employees of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are receiving permanent termination notices in the wake of a recent court decision that protected some CDC employees from layoffs but not others.

The notices went out this week and many people have not yet received them, according to the American Federation of Government Employees, which represents more than 2,000 dues-paying members at CDC.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services on Wednesday did not offer details on the layoffs and referred an AP reporter to a March statement that said restructuring and downsizing were intended to make health agencies more responsive and efficient.

AFGE officials said they are aware of at least 600 CDC employees being cut.
