We have been sick 7 times over here this cold and flu season. This last 1 had pertussis vibes but we are all vaccinated so it was pretty easy on us overall. I have had whooping cough bc my vaccine failed and they had 2 change the recommendations for another booster sooner in adults, it’s a nightmare
I think its a cycle at this point. RFK Jr. states a problem based on his conspiracy theories, and when working on a solution finds out there was already a solution being done before they stopped it. This is a cycle, I'm sure, will take years before RFK Jr. believes that he was the fooled all along.
Not eradicated, but eliminated in the US. Can still enter from US folks traveling abroad and bringing it home, tourists, etc. Now it may remain here spreading permanently (endemic) unlike the past 1/4 century. (Similar to the U.K. when it gained measles eliminated status briefly and then lost it.)
What’s worse is this creates a global risk as people refuse to be vaccinated. Viruses will spread and mutate here potentially rendering the vaccines of other countries ineffective. This puts EVERYONE at risk.
