Скачать или смотреть Chair Of Cdcs Vaccine Advisory Committee Questions Polio Shot Recommendation

Dr. Kirk Milhoan, the new chair of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), questioned the need for broad vaccine mandates, arguing that vaccine decisions should be made by patients and doctors, not by government mandate.

Milhoan specifically questioned the need for the polio vaccine, arguing that the risk of polio in the U.S. today is different from the 1950s when the vaccine was first introduced, due to improved sanitation.

Milhoan also questioned the need for the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, arguing that measles cases were declining before the vaccine and that hospitals are better equipped to treat measles today.

Milhoan's comments received criticism from medical organizations and professionals, who argued that his statements are incorrect and dangerous, particularly regarding polio and measles. They emphasized that vaccine-preventable diseases like polio and measles can still cause serious harm, and that vaccines have been highly effective in reducing their incidence and severity.

Overall, Milhoan's views represent a shift away from the broad, evidence-based vaccine recommendations that have been the standard, and towards a more individualized, skeptical approach to certain vaccines that public health experts find concerning. | #ChairofCDC #vaccineadvisorycommittee #polioshotrecommendation #questions #health #healthnews #medicine #medical #medicalnews #healthcare
