Just another day as a hospital pediatrician seeing serious vaccine-preventable suffering in so called “low risk” kids. Meningitis, pneumonia, encephalitis, needless hospitalizations, long term damage. Kids don’t deserve this pain. Parents deserve safe, effective guidance.

The reason we use an American vaccine schedule is because it is safe and effective and proven to save lives and keep our children happy and healthy. And because we live in America. Where it’s used. Where it works.

The Same Pediatricians Who Treat Your Child Are Asking You to Trust Vaccines

A child has died of measles. Children are dying of flu. Pertussis cases and deaths are on the rise. As we continue to see preventable childhood deaths, remember: the acceptable number of preventable childhood deaths is ZERO. All children deserve the happy + healthy lives vaccines give them.

The disinformation about safe, life saving treatments for moms and children is breaking me. Tylenol, SSRIs, vaccines… miracles of modern medicine. Moms + kids will suffer + die from pseudoscience backed by our government. Pediatricians are here for you, even while heartbroken and exhausted.

100 years ago, these girls were sent to rest homes, diagnosed with hysteria, locked away in asylums. Now they’re given central lines, and fed through tubes. In both eras, we've found ways to strip women of agency over their own bodies and healing. doctordiamond.substack.com/p/they-used-...

They Used to Languish in Asylums. Now They Die in the ICU.
Young women in pain are still being exploited—just with different tools.

Rfkjr and fellow monsters spread malicious lies about pediatricians because he knows we will speak out against his horrible anti kid agenda. But he can’t burn us out, we’re still gonna fight for kids: doctordiamond.substack.com/p/while-rfk-...

Pediatricians don’t get rich off vaccines. But antivaxers who shill pseudoscientific products and wellness ideology like rfkjr and other monsters absolutely do. I’m a salaried pediatrician. Vaccines save lives. Vaccines keep kids happy + healthy. Antivax propaganda makes billions and kills kids.

My ancestors were called “illegals” every place they tried to make their home. They found a better life here. My family has a better life here. Don’t turn their land of opportunity into the regimes they fled

Attacks on vaccines = kids dying of preventable diseases (like cancer!) Attacks on Medicaid + Medicare = attacks on healthcare for all, esp. women + children Attacks on planned parenthood = attacks on preventative health + cancer screenings This administration is Making America Suffer Again

They say: you can complain about your kids and still love them. I add: you can complain about modern motherhood but still love motherhood doctordiamond.substack.com/p/why-did-yo... #parent #parenting #parents #mother #motherhood #mom #moms

“Why did you even have kids?”
And other things that should never be said out loud

Vaccines are how we protect children. They are fundamental to a world in which graveyards aren’t lined with the tombstones of babies. They are crucial to a world in which children grow up, survive and thrive. substack.com/home/post/p-...

doctordiamond.substack.com/p/the-death-... As a hospital pediatrician, it’s sad that I have to explain why saying “only 500 kids used to die of measles each year” isn’t the argument some ppl think it is. Spoiler alert: it’s because the number of preventable childhood deaths should be 0.

The death of a child is always a tragedy
Anti-vaccine propagandists think it’s okay for kids to die. Of course it isn’t.

I commend the American Academy of Pediatrics for fighting the good fight, but it is sad that they need to be doing this in 2025 for diseases we had previously eliminated through vaccination. These diseases are resurgence because a subset of society is insistent on rejecting the science of vaccines.

Somehow controversial opinion: no child should ever die a preventable death. Our nation is failing its most vulnerable at the most basic level. They don’t deserve any of this.

Vaccines are the safest, most important intervention since clean drinking water. All children deserve to be fully immunized according to the current schedule.

We cannot allow the deaths of children from vaccine preventable illnesses to be normalized in the U.S. in the same way that deaths of children from gun violence have been normalized. Children DO NOT need to die from preventable causes. We owe them full and healthy lives!

Measles has killed a school age child. The child was not vaccinated. It has been 10 years since anyone has died from measles. It was eradicated in the US thru vaccines. But dangerous dopes like RFK Jr made money scaring ppl into not vaccinating their kids.
