Beware: There’s a new Trump-RFK Jr. epidemic brewing
“There have been 11,720 cases of whooping cough in 2025, as of the week ending on May 24. This comes after whooping cough rates soared to surpass pre-pandemic levels last year.”
From former IN Health Director and Former US Surgeon General:
“Whooping cough cases up 5x this year
100,000 global measles deaths - mostly in kids
H5N1 steamrolling towards pandemic status. Egg prices skyrocketing.
The new administration had better have a strong infectious disease response plan- and had better ensure public health and vaccine confidence stays high. Or they’ll be distracted with outbreaks for 4 years this time instead of 1. 🤷🏽♂️”
