Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to ask CDC to explore alternative measles treatments

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to ask CDC to explore alternative measles treatments
ALL RIGHT, THAT바카라 게임 웹사이트S ALL RIGHT. ONE DAY AT A TIME. FIVE ON YOUR HEALTH TONIGHT, MISINFORMATION ABOUT THE MEASLES VACCINE. THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S A NEW STUDY THAT SUGGESTS IN THE UNITED STATES IT IS SPREADING ALMOST AS FAST AS THE VIRUS ITSELF. JOINING US NOW IS DOCTOR DANIEL KURITZKES, CHIEF OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES AT BRIGHAM AND WOMEN바카라 게임 웹사이트S HOSPITAL. ALWAYS WONDERFUL TO SEE YOU. GREAT TO SEE YOU, DOCTOR. WELCOME BACK. GOOD TO SEE YOU. SO LET바카라 게임 웹사이트S START WITH THE LATEST DATA. CDC NOW CONFIRMS NEARLY 900 CASES 884 SO FAR IN 30 STATES. AND THREE PEOPLE HAVE DIED. ABOUT 11% HAVE BEEN HOSPITALIZED. ARE YOU SURPRISED? THERE HAVE BEEN NO CASES YET HERE IN MASSACHUSETTS? WELL, MARIA, IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S GREAT TO BE BACK WITH YOU. YOU KNOW, WE바카라 게임 웹사이트RE VERY FORTUNATE HERE IN MASSACHUSETTS THAT OUR VACCINATION RATES ARE SO HIGH. BUT THAT바카라 게임 웹사이트S NO GUARANTEE THAT WE바카라 게임 웹사이트LL CONTINUE TO GET AWAY WITHOUT HAVING ANY CASES, BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THE VACCINE, ALTHOUGH VERY EFFECTIVE, IS ONLY ABOUT 97 OR 98%. SO THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S STILL A SMALL CHANCE THAT PEOPLE COULD GET MEASLES. AND THE MORE EXPOSURES THERE ARE, THE GREATER THE CHANCE THAT SOMEBODY IS GOING TO END UP COMING DOWN WITH IT. SO WE HAVE TO STILL BE ON OUR GUARD. SO LAST YEAR, AROUND 92% OF KINDERGARTNERS RECEIVED THE SHOT. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S MRE, MMR, MMR. YES. OKAY. SO THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S A NEW STUDY THAT PREDICTS IF THAT RATE STAYS THE SAME, WE COULD SEE ALMOST 900,000 NEW CASES OF MEASLES IN THE NEXT 25 YEARS. IF IT DROPS BY 10%, WE바카라 게임 웹사이트LL SEE 11 MILLION CASES. IF IT DROPS IN HALF. GET READY FOR 51 MILLION. THESE ARE. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S A HUGE NUMBER. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR YOU AND YOUR COLLEAGUES, DOCTOR? WELL, IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S REALLY CONCERNING. FIRST OF ALL, WE KNOW THAT THERE바카라 게임 웹사이트S A RISK OF DEATH FROM MEASLES AROUND 1 TO 2% IN IN LOW INCOME COUNTRIES MAY SEE DEATH. AND IF WE HAVE A LARGE UNVACCINATED POPULATION, THAT WOULD BE THE BIGGEST RISK. THE SECOND CONCERN IS WE HAVE A MUCH LARGER GROUP OF IMMUNOCOMPROMISED PEOPLE NOWADAYS THAN WE DID SAY, YOU KNOW, FIVE DECADES AGO WHEN MEASLES WAS STILL VERY PREVALENT. AND THERE ARE MANY MORE SERIOUS COMPLICATIONS THAT CAN OCCUR IN IMMUNOCOMPROMISED INDIVIDUALS WHO COME DOWN WITH MEASLES. THAT WOULD BE A BIG WORRY. AND MISINFORMATION IS ALWAYS BAD. DO YOU AGREE THAT MISINFORMATION ABOUT THE VACCINE IS A BIG FACTOR? I THINK PEOPLE REALLY NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT THESE VACCINES VACCINES ARE INCREDIBLY SAFE. WE HAVE A NEW SEVEN MONTH OLD GRANDDAUGHTER AND SHE JUST GOT VACCINATED BECAUSE SHE바카라 게임 웹사이트S TRAVELING, AND WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT SHE바카라 게임 웹사이트S GOING TO BE PROTECTED. PEOPLE SHOULD BE CONFIDENT IN THE SAFETY OF THESE VACCINES. AND, DOCTOR, BEFORE WE STEP ASIDE, YOU KNOW WHAT HE바카라 게임 웹사이트S GOING TO SAY, I ALREADY KNOW. WAIT A MINUTE. LET바카라 게임 웹사이트S JUST SAY, HYPOTHETICALLY, THAT YOU바카라 게임 웹사이트RE A PLUS 50 MALE WHO WORKS ON TELEVISION AND ANCHORS AND AND HAD GOTTEN THIS. OKAY, WELL, I바카라 게임 웹사이트LL GET TO THAT IN A MINUTE. OKAY. AND HAD GOTTEN THIS SHOT A LITTLE WHILE AGO THAT THAT PERSON DOESN바카라 게임 웹사이트T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT AGAIN. DOES THAT PERSON I MEAN, IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S HYPOTHETICAL, RIGHT? WELL, SO SO PEOPLE BORN BEFORE 63 ARE PRESUMED TO HAVE HAD MEASLES AND ARE PROTECTED. PEOPLE BORN AFTER 1969 SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED TWO MEASLES VACCINES. WE바카라 게임 웹사이트RE ALL SET. I MEAN, THE HYPOTHETICAL YOU SOLVED CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR GRANDCHILD, AND YOU WANT TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT THE THINGS BEHIND HIM. DID YOU ADD TAYLOR SWIFT TO THAT COLLECTION BEHIND YOU, OR ARE YOU YES OR NO? NOT YET. BUT I DIDN바카라 게임 웹사이트T WANT TO DISAPPOINT YOU AND MADE SURE THAT I HAD THE RIGHT PEOPLE. WE LOVE IT. IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S ALWAYS GREAT. YOU FEEL LIKE AN OLD FRIEND. WE ALWAYS APPRECIATE YOUR WISDOM. AND WE WE ALWAYS ENJOY TALKING TO YOU. DOCTOR.
